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:
Non-interactive (automation / npx):
Manual steps (same result):
  1. Stop the gateway service:
  1. Uninstall the gateway service (launchd/systemd/schtasks):
  1. Delete state + config:
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):
  1. Remove the CLI install (pick the one you used):
  1. If you installed the macOS 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>):
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):

Windows (Scheduled Task)

Default task name is Clawdia Gateway (or Clawdia Gateway (<profile>)). The task script lives under your state dir.
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.
