CLI commands

Uninstall

openclaw uninstall

Uninstall the Gateway service and/or local data. The CLI itself is not removed; uninstall it via npm/pnpm separately.

Options

Flag Default Description
--service false Remove the Gateway service.
--state false Remove state and config.
--workspace false Remove workspace directories.
--app false Remove the macOS app.
--all false Shorthand for --service --state --workspace --app.
--yes false Skip confirmation prompts.
--non-interactive false Disable prompts; requires --yes.
--dry-run false Print planned actions without removing files.

With no scope flags, an interactive multiselect prompts for which components to remove (defaults to service, state, workspace preselected).

Examples

bash
openclaw backup createopenclaw uninstallopenclaw uninstall --service --yes --non-interactiveopenclaw uninstall --state --workspace --yes --non-interactiveopenclaw uninstall --all --yesopenclaw uninstall --dry-run

Notes

  • Run openclaw backup create first for a restorable snapshot before removing state or workspaces.
  • --state preserves configured workspace directories unless --workspace is also selected.
