Use when a conversation is getting long, drifting, juggling multiple tasks, re-pasting the same files, or showing stale/confused context — and at the start of any new task. Triggers: long thread, context bloat, topic switch, repeated file uploads, 'why is it forgetting', degraded answers, finished one task and starting another.
Use when a user wants to deconstruct a complex problem, business challenge, product decision, strategy question, career crossroads, or stuck situation by stripping assumptions, identifying first principles, rebuilding options from foundational truths, and choosing one high-leverage action.
Audit role-based access control and permission drift across product surfaces.

Display HTML content on connected OpenClaw nodes (Mac app, iOS, Android).
The canvas tool lets you present web content on any connected node's canvas view. Great for:

canvasHost.root directoryThe canvas host server binds based on gateway.bind setting:
| Bind Mode | Server Binds To | Canvas URL Uses |
|---|---|---|
loopback | 127.0.0.1 | localhost (local only) |
lan | LAN interface | LAN IP address |
tailnet | Tailscale interface | Tailscale hostname |
auto | Best available | Tailscale > LAN > loopback |
Key insight: The canvasHostHostForBridge is derived from bridgeHost. When bound to Tailscale, nodes receive URLs like:
http://<tailscale-hostname>:18793/__openclaw__/canvas/<file>.html
This is why localhost URLs don't work - the node receives the Tailscale hostname from the bridge!
| Action | Description |
|---|---|
present | Show canvas with optional target URL |
hide | Hide the canvas |
navigate | Navigate to a new URL |
eval | Execute JavaScript in the canvas |
snapshot | Capture screenshot of canvas |
In ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json:
{
"canvasHost": {
"enabled": true,
"port": 18793,
"root": "/Users/you/clawd/canvas",
"liveReload": true
},
"gateway": {
"bind": "auto"
}
}
When liveReload: true (default), the canvas host:
Great for development!
Place files in the canvas root directory (default ~/clawd/canvas/):
cat > ~/clawd/canvas/my-game.html << 'HTML'
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head><title>My Game</title></head>
<body>
<h1>Hello Canvas!</h1>
</body>
</html>
HTML
Check how your gateway is bound:
cat ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json | jq '.gateway.bind'
Then construct the URL:
http://127.0.0.1:18793/__openclaw__/canvas/<file>.htmlhttp://<hostname>:18793/__openclaw__/canvas/<file>.htmlFind your Tailscale hostname:
tailscale status --json | jq -r '.Self.DNSName' | sed 's/\.$//'
openclaw nodes list
Look for Mac/iOS/Android nodes with canvas capability.
canvas action:present node:<node-id> target:<full-url>
Example:
canvas action:present node:mac-63599bc4-b54d-4392-9048-b97abd58343a target:http://peters-mac-studio-1.sheep-coho.ts.net:18793/__openclaw__/canvas/snake.html
canvas action:navigate node:<node-id> url:<new-url>
canvas action:snapshot node:<node-id>
canvas action:hide node:<node-id>
Cause: URL mismatch between server bind and node expectation.
Debug steps:
cat ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json | jq '.gateway.bind'lsof -i :18793curl http://<hostname>:18793/__openclaw__/canvas/<file>.htmlSolution: Use the full hostname matching your bind mode, not localhost.
Always specify node:<node-id> parameter.
Node is offline. Use openclaw nodes list to find online nodes.
If live reload isn't working:
liveReload: true in configThe canvas host serves from /__openclaw__/canvas/ prefix:
http://<host>:18793/__openclaw__/canvas/index.html → ~/clawd/canvas/index.html
http://<host>:18793/__openclaw__/canvas/games/snake.html → ~/clawd/canvas/games/snake.html
The /__openclaw__/canvas/ prefix is defined by CANVAS_HOST_PATH constant.
