Troubleshooting

First 60 seconds

Run these in order:
clawdia status
clawdia status --all
clawdia gateway probe
clawdia logs --follow
clawdia doctor
If the gateway is reachable, deep probes:
clawdia status --deep

Common “it broke” cases

clawdia: command not found

Almost always a Node/npm PATH issue. Start here:

Installer fails (or you need full logs)

Re-run the installer in verbose mode to see the full trace and npm output:
curl -fsSL https://clawdia.cc/install.sh | bash -s -- --verbose
For beta installs:
curl -fsSL https://clawdia.cc/install.sh | bash -s -- --beta --verbose
You can also set CLAWDIA_VERBOSE=1 instead of the flag.

Gateway “unauthorized”, can’t connect, or keeps reconnecting

Control UI fails on HTTP (device identity required)

docs.clawdia.cc shows an SSL error (Comcast/Xfinity)

Some Comcast/Xfinity connections block docs.clawdia.cc via Xfinity Advanced Security. Disable Advanced Security or add docs.clawdia.cc to the allowlist, then retry.

Service says running, but RPC probe fails

Model/auth failures (rate limit, billing, “all models failed”)

/model says model not allowed

This usually means agents.defaults.models is configured as an allowlist. When it’s non-empty, only those provider/model keys can be selected.
  • Check the allowlist: clawdia config get agents.defaults.models
  • Add the model you want (or clear the allowlist) and retry /model
  • Use /models to browse the allowed providers/models

When filing an issue

Paste a safe report:
clawdia status --all
If you can, include the relevant log tail from clawdia logs --follow.
