## Why Command Center?
Your AI agents are running 24/7. You need to know what they're doing.
Command Center gives you **real-time visibility** into your OpenClaw deployment โ sessions, costs, system health, scheduled tasks โ all in one secure dashboard.
### โก Fast
- **Single API call** โ unified state endpoint, not 16+ separate requests
- **2-second updates** โ real-time SSE push, not polling
- **5-second cache** โ backend stays responsive under load
- **Instant startup** โ no build step, no compilation
### ๐ชถ Lightweight
- **Zero dependencies** for users โ just Node.js
- **~200KB total** โ dashboard + server
- **No webpack/vite/bundler** โ runs directly
- **No React/Vue/Angular** โ vanilla JS, works everywhere
### ๐ฑ Responsive
- **Desktop & mobile** โ works on any screen size
- **Dark mode** โ easy on the eyes, Starcraft-inspired
- **Live updates** โ no manual refresh needed
- **Offline-friendly** โ graceful degradation
### ๐ง Modern
- **ES Modules** โ clean component architecture
- **SSE streaming** โ efficient real-time updates
- **REST API** โ integrate with your tools
- **TypeScript-ready** โ JSDoc types included
### ๐ Security (Most Important)
Command Center takes security seriously:
| Feature | Description |
| ------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------- |
| **Auth Modes** | Token, Tailscale, Cloudflare Access, IP allowlist |
| **No external calls** | Dashboard runs 100% locally โ no telemetry, no CDNs |
| **Localhost default** | Binds to `127.0.0.1` by default |
| **Read-only by default** | View your agents without exposing control |
| **No secrets in UI** | API keys, tokens never displayed |
| **Audit logging** | Know who accessed what, when |
```bash
# Secure deployment example (Tailscale)
DASHBOARD_AUTH_MODE=tailscale node lib/server.js
# Only users on your Tailscale network can access
```
---

---
## Quick Start
```bash
npx clawhub@latest install command-center
cd skills/command-center
node lib/server.js
```
**Dashboard runs at http://localhost:3333** ๐
Alternative: Git clone
```bash
git clone https://github.com/jontsai/openclaw-command-center
cd openclaw-command-center
node lib/server.js
```
---
## Zero-Config Experience
Command Center **auto-detects** your OpenClaw workspace:
1. `$OPENCLAW_WORKSPACE` environment variable
2. `~/.openclaw-workspace` or `~/openclaw-workspace`
3. Common names: `~/molty`, `~/clawd`, `~/moltbot`
If you have `memory/` or `state/` directories, you're good to go.
---
## Configuration
### Environment Variables
| Variable | Description | Default |
| -------------------- | -------------- | ----------- |
| `PORT` | Server port | `3333` |
| `OPENCLAW_WORKSPACE` | Workspace root | Auto-detect |
| `OPENCLAW_PROFILE` | Profile name | (none) |
### ๐ Authentication
| Mode | Use Case | Config |
| ------------ | ------------- | --------------------------------------------------------- |
| `none` | Local dev | `DASHBOARD_AUTH_MODE=none` |
| `token` | API access | `DASHBOARD_AUTH_MODE=token DASHBOARD_TOKEN=secret` |
| `tailscale` | Team access | `DASHBOARD_AUTH_MODE=tailscale` |
| `cloudflare` | Public deploy | `DASHBOARD_AUTH_MODE=cloudflare` |
| `allowlist` | IP whitelist | `DASHBOARD_AUTH_MODE=allowlist DASHBOARD_ALLOWED_IPS=...` |
### ๐ Recommended OpenClaw Settings
For the best Command Center experience, configure your OpenClaw gateway:
#### Slack Threading (Critical)
Enable threading for all messages to get proper topic tracking:
```yaml
# In your OpenClaw config (gateway.yaml or via openclaw gateway config)
slack:
capabilities:
threading: all # Options: all, dm, group, none
```
**Why this matters:** Without threading, the dashboard can't track conversation topics properly. Each thread becomes a trackable unit of work.
#### Session Labels
Use descriptive session labels for better dashboard visibility:
```yaml
sessions:
labelFormat: "{channel}:{topic}" # Customize as needed
```
#### Cerebro (Topic Tracking)
Enable Cerebro for automatic conversation tagging:
```bash
# Initialize Cerebro directories
mkdir -p ~/your-workspace/cerebro/topics
mkdir -p ~/your-workspace/cerebro/orphans
```
The dashboard will automatically detect and display topic data.

### Multi-Profile Support
Running multiple OpenClaw instances?
```bash
# Production dashboard
node lib/server.js --profile production --port 3333
# Development dashboard
node lib/server.js --profile dev --port 3334
```
---
## API
Command Center exposes a REST API:
| Endpoint | Description |
| ------------------- | -------------------------------------------------- |
| `GET /api/state` | **Unified state** โ all dashboard data in one call |
| `GET /api/health` | Health check |
| `GET /api/vitals` | System metrics |
| `GET /api/sessions` | Active sessions |
| `GET /api/events` | SSE stream for real-time updates |

## ๐ Coming Soon
### Advanced Job Scheduling
Building on OpenClaw's native cron system with intelligent scheduling primitives:
| Primitive | Description |
| -------------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| **run-if-not** | Skip if job already running (dedupe) |
| **run-if-idle** | Only execute when system capacity available |
| **run-after** | Dependency chains between jobs |
| **run-with-backoff** | Exponential retry on failure |
| **priority-queue** | Critical vs. background work prioritization |
### Multi-Agent Orchestration
- Agent-to-agent handoffs
- Swarm coordination patterns
- Specialized agent routing (data analysis, documentation, testing)
- Cross-session context sharing
### Integration Ecosystem
- Webhook triggers for external systems
- Slack slash commands for quick actions
- API for custom integrations
- Plugin architecture for specialized agents

## Screenshots
### Dashboard Overview
The hero view shows key metrics at a glance: total tokens, costs, active sessions, estimated savings, and system capacity.
### Sessions Panel
Monitor all active AI sessions in real-time. Each card shows model, channel, token usage, cost, and activity status. Filter by status (live/recent/idle), channel, or session type.
### Cron Jobs
View and manage scheduled tasks. See run history, next scheduled time, and enable/disable jobs. The dashboard shows job success/failure sparklines and filters by status and schedule type.
### Cerebro Topics
Automatic conversation organization. Topics are auto-detected from Slack threads, with status tracking (active/resolved/parked), thread counts, and quick navigation. Privacy controls let you hide sensitive topics.
### Operators
See who's interacting with your AI agents. Track active sessions per operator, permission levels, and last activity timestamps.
### Memory Browser
Browse your agent's memory files โ daily logs, long-term memory, and workspace files. Quick navigation with file sizes and modification times.
### Cost Breakdown Modal
Click on any cost stat to see detailed breakdowns: token usage by type, pricing rates, and calculation methodology. Includes estimated savings vs. manual work.
### Operator Details
Click on an operator card to see their session history, stats, and activity timeline.
### Privacy Settings
Control what's visible for demos and screenshots. Hide sensitive topics, sessions, or cron jobs. Settings sync to the server automatically.
### Session Details
Click any session card to see detailed information: summary, key facts, tools used, and recent messages.
