Uninstall

Two paths:
  • Easy path if clawdia is still installed.
  • Manual service removal if the CLI is gone but the service is still running.

​
Easy path (CLI still installed)

Recommended: use the built-in uninstaller: 
clawdia uninstall
Non-interactive (automation / npx): 
clawdia uninstall --all --yes --non-interactive
npx -y clawdia uninstall --all --yes --non-interactive
Manual steps (same result):
  1. Stop the gateway service:
clawdia gateway stop
  1. Uninstall the gateway service (launchd/systemd/schtasks):
clawdia gateway uninstall
  1. Delete state + config:
rm -rf "${CLAWDIA_STATE_DIR:-$HOME/.clawdia}"
If you set CLAWDIA_CONFIG_PATH to a custom location outside the state dir, delete that file too.
  1. Delete your workspace (optional, removes agent files):
rm -rf ~/clawd
  1. Remove the CLI install (pick the one you used):
npm rm -g clawdia
pnpm remove -g clawdia
bun remove -g clawdia
  1. If you installed the macOS app:
rm -rf /Applications/Clawdia.app
Notes:
  • If you used profiles (--profile / CLAWDIA_PROFILE), repeat step 3 for each state dir (defaults are ~/.clawdia-<profile>).
  • In remote mode, the state dir lives on the gateway host, so run steps 1-4 there too.

​
Manual service removal (CLI not installed)

Use this if the gateway service keeps running but clawdia is missing.

​
macOS (launchd)

Default label is com.clawdia.gateway (or com.clawdia.<profile>): 
launchctl bootout gui/$UID/com.clawdia.gateway
rm -f ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.clawdia.gateway.plist
If you used a profile, replace the label and plist name with com.clawdia.<profile>.

​
Linux (systemd user unit)

Default unit name is clawdia-gateway.service (or clawdia-gateway-<profile>.service): 
systemctl --user disable --now clawdia-gateway.service
rm -f ~/.config/systemd/user/clawdia-gateway.service
systemctl --user daemon-reload

​
Windows (Scheduled Task)

Default task name is Clawdia Gateway (or Clawdia Gateway (<profile>)). The task script lives under your state dir. 
schtasks /Delete /F /TN "Clawdia Gateway"
Remove-Item -Force "$env:USERPROFILE\.clawdia\gateway.cmd"
If you used a profile, delete the matching task name and ~\.clawdia-<profile>\gateway.cmd.

​
Normal install vs source checkout

​
Normal install (install.sh / npm / pnpm / bun)

If you used https://clawdia.cc/install.sh or install.ps1, the CLI was installed with npm install -g clawdia@latest. Remove it with npm rm -g clawdia (or pnpm remove -g / bun remove -g if you installed that way).

​
Source checkout (git clone)

If you run from a repo checkout (git clone + clawdia ... / bun run clawdia ...):
  1. Uninstall the gateway service before deleting the repo (use the easy path above or manual service removal).
  2. Delete the repo directory.
  3. Remove state + workspace as shown above.
