Web CLI Terminal

Using the CLI Terminal UI

The CLI terminal provides a real terminal experience with full Hermes CLI support:

// Component usage
import CliTerminal from '@/components/hermes/cli/CliTerminal.vue'

// In your Vue component
<template>
  <CliTerminal
    :session-id="currentSessionId"
    :auto-connect="true"
    @session-created="handleSessionCreated"
  />
</template>

// Create CLI session with startup parameters
const createCliSession = async () => {
  const response = await axios.post('/api/cli/sessions', {
    name: 'My CLI Session',
    startup_params: {
      model: 'anthropic/claude-sonnet-4',
      provider: 'anthropic',
      skills: ['web-search', 'code-execution'],
      yolo: false,
      verbose: true
    }
  })
  return response.data.session_id
}

// List CLI sessions
const sessions = await axios.get('/api/cli/sessions')

// Reconnect to existing session
const reconnect = async (sessionId: string) => {
  const response = await axios.post(`/api/cli/sessions/${sessionId}/connect`)
  return response.data
}

// Send input to CLI
await axios.post(, {
  : 
})


 axios.(, {
  : ,
  : 
})


 axios.()

CLI Commands Available in Terminal

# Hermes CLI-specific commands (work in Web Terminal)
/skills                  # List all skills
/skills enable web-search # Enable a skill
/tools                   # List available tools
/cron list              # List scheduled tasks
/config                 # Show configuration
/browser                # Open browser tool
/help                   # Show all commands

# Regular slash commands
/new                    # Start new session
/model claude-sonnet-4  # Switch model
/status                 # Show system status

WebSocket Event Handling

import { useOpenClawStore } from '@/stores/openclaw'

const store = useOpenClawStore()

// Connect to OpenClaw Gateway
await store.connect()

// Listen to events
store.on('session.message', (data) => {
  console.log('New message:', data)
})

store.on('system.stats', (stats) => {
  console.log('System stats:', stats)
})

// Send command
store.sendCommand({
  type: 'chat.send',
  data: {
    session_id: 'my-session',
    message: 'Hello AI'
  }
})

Configuration Patterns

Connecting to Multiple Gateways

// stores/settings.ts
export const useSettingsStore = defineStore('settings', {
  state: () => ({
    connections: {
      openclaw: {
        wsUrl: 'ws://localhost:8081',
        httpUrl: 'http://localhost:8081',
        enabled: true
      },
      hermes: {
        apiUrl: 'http://localhost:8642',
        webUrl: 'http://localhost:9119',
        apiKey: '',
        enabled: true
      }
    }
  }),
  actions: {
    async testConnection(type: 'openclaw' | 'hermes') {
      if (type === 'openclaw') {
        const ws = new WebSocket(this.connections.openclaw.wsUrl)
        return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
          ws.onopen = () => { ws.close(); resolve(true) }
          ws.onerror = reject
        })
      }  {
         response =  ()
         response.
      }
    }
  }
})

Slash Command Implementation

// components/chat/CommandProcessor.ts
export class CommandProcessor {
  private commands = {
    '/new': () => this.newSession(),
    '/model': (args: string) => this.switchModel(args),
    '/skills': () => this.listSkills(),
    '/status': () => this.showStatus(),
    '/help': () => this.showHelp()
  }

  async process(input: string) {
    const [command, ...args] = input.split(' ')
    const handler = this.commands[command]
    
    if (handler) {
      return await handler(args.join(' '))
    }
    return null
  }

  private async switchModel(modelName: ) {
     modelApi.(modelName)
     
  }
}

Real-time Dashboard Updates

// components/Dashboard.vue
<script setup lang="ts">
import { ref, onMounted, onUnmounted } from 'vue'
import { useDashboardStore } from '@/stores/dashboard'

const store = useDashboardStore()
const stats = ref({})
let updateInterval: number

onMounted(() => {
  // Initial load
  store.loadStats()
  
  // Poll every 5 seconds
  updateInterval = setInterval(() => {
    store.loadStats()
  }, 5000)
  
  // Listen to WebSocket events
  store.on('stats.update', (data) => {
    stats.value = data
  })
})

onUnmounted(() => {
  clearInterval(updateInterval)
})
</script>

Common Patterns

Agent Office Workflow

import { agentOfficeApi } from '@/api/openclaw/agent-office'

// Create multi-agent scenario
const createScenario = async () => {
  const scenario = await agentOfficeApi.createScenario({
    name: 'Code Review Team',
    description: 'Collaborative code review workflow',
    agents: [
      { id: 'reviewer-1', role: 'senior-reviewer' },
      { id: 'reviewer-2', role: 'security-expert' },
      { id: 'coordinator', role: 'team-lead' }
    ]
  })

  // Assign task
  await agentOfficeApi.delegateTask(scenario.id, {
    agent_id: 'coordinator',
    task: 'Review pull request #123',
    context: { pr_url: 'https://github.com/...' }
  })

  return scenario
}

Custom Skill Installation

// Install skill from custom source
const installCustomSkill = async () => {
  await skillApi.installSkill({
    name: 'my-custom-skill',
    source: 'github',
    repository: 'username/skill-repo',
    branch: 'main',
    path: 'skills/my-skill'
  })
}

Memory/Identity Management

import { memoryApi } from '@/api/openclaw/memory'

// Update agent SOUL (personality)
const updateSoul = async () => {
  await memoryApi.updateDocument('SOUL', `
# Agent Personality

You are a helpful coding assistant specialized in Vue.js and TypeScript.

## Guidelines
- Always provide type-safe examples
- Explain Vue 3 Composition API patterns
- Reference official documentation
  `)
}

// Update agent instructions
await memoryApi.updateDocument('AGENTS', `
# Agent Instructions

## Available Tools
- code_executor: Run code snippets
- web_search: Search the web
- file_manager: Manage files
  `)

Troubleshooting

Connection Issues

// Test OpenClaw Gateway connection
const testOpenClaw = async () => {
  try {
    const ws = new WebSocket('ws://localhost:8081')
    ws.onopen = () => console.log('✓ OpenClaw connected')
    ws.onerror = (err) => console.error('✗ OpenClaw error:', err)
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Cannot connect to OpenClaw:', error)
    // Check: Is gateway running? Correct port? Firewall?
  }
}

// Test Hermes API connection
const testHermes = async () => {
  try {
    const health = await fetch('http://localhost:8642/v1/health')
    const webUI = await fetch('http://localhost:9119/api/status')
    console.log('API Server:', health.ok ? '✓' : '✗')
    console.log('Web UI:', webUI. ?  : )
  }  (error) {
    .(, error)
    
  }
}

CLI Terminal Not Starting

# Check Python availability
which python3
python3 --version  # Must be >= 3.10

# Check Hermes CLI installation
hermes --version

# Check backend server logs
npm run dev:server
# Look for "CLI session manager initialized"

# Verify database
ls -la cli-sessions.db

# Check process limits
ulimit -n  # Should be >= 1024

Session Persistence Issues

// Verify CLI session database
import Database from 'better-sqlite3'

const db = new Database('./cli-sessions.db')
const sessions = db.prepare('SELECT * FROM cli_sessions').all()
console.log('Active sessions:', sessions)

// Clear stuck sessions
db.prepare('DELETE FROM cli_sessions WHERE last_activity < ?')
  .run(Date.now() - 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000) // Older than 24h

WebSocket Reconnection

// Implement exponential backoff
class ResilientWebSocket {
  private reconnectDelay = 1000
  private maxDelay = 30000

  connect() {
    this.ws = new WebSocket(this.url)
    
    this.ws.onerror = () => {
      setTimeout(() => {
        this.reconnectDelay = Math.min(this.reconnectDelay * 2, this.maxDelay)
        this.connect()
      }, this.reconnectDelay)
    }

    this.ws.onopen = () => {
      this.reconnectDelay = 1000 // Reset on success
    }
  }
}

CORS Issues

// server/index.js - Backend server configuration
app.use(cors({
  origin: process.env.VITE_FRONTEND_URL || 'http://localhost:3001',
  credentials: true
}))

Build Errors

# Clear cache and reinstall
rm -rf node_modules package-lock.json
npm install

# Check Node version
node --version  # Must be >= 18

# Build with verbose output
npm run build -- --mode production --debug

# Check TypeScript errors
npx tsc --noEmit

Model API Key Issues

# Verify Hermes configuration
hermes config show

# Test model directly
hermes chat --model anthropic/claude-sonnet-4 "Hello"

# Check API key in environment
echo $ANTHROPIC_API_KEY

# Update .env file (must be in ~/.hermes/.env)
vim ~/.hermes/.env

Production Deployment

# Build optimized bundle
npm run build

# Use PM2 for process management
npm install -g pm2

# Start with PM2
pm2 start npm --name "openclaw-admin" -- start

# Monitor
pm2 logs openclaw-admin
pm2 monit

# Auto-restart on system reboot
pm2 startup
pm2 save
