Extended access
Why this level
- The dashboard reads OpenClaw agents' memory files, sessions and logs and shows them in a browser
- Beyond localhost, security depends on the sign-in mode you configure
Install
- Works in
In your terminal, with SkillFoxx CLI
npx skillfoxx add skills/openclaw-command-centerDetects the agents on your machine, shows the access level and pins the version.

What it does
OpenClaw Command Center runs as a small Node.js server and shows the state of a deployed OpenClaw: active AI sessions, token and quota use per model, a detailed cost breakdown, CPU, memory and disk load, temperature, scheduled jobs and agent memory files. The page updates through an event stream every two seconds, uses a single state request and a five-second cache. The dashboard finds the OpenClaw workspace itself, by the `OPENCLAW_WORKSPACE` variable or by common paths. View is read-only by default, the server listens on `127.0.0.1` and supports token, Tailscale, Cloudflare Access and IP allowlist sign-in, keeps an access log and hides keys. A privacy mode conceals sensitive topics for demos. For a minimal view run `COMMAND_CENTER_MODE=core npm start`. The ClawHub-format skill installs with one command.
Who it is for. People who run OpenClaw with several agents and want to see costs, load and schedules without opening a terminal.
Good fit when
- Agents run around the clock and you need to know what they are doing right now
- You want to break down costs by model and channel for a day or a month
- You need to show the panel in a demo without revealing sensitive topics
- The agent server is on a remote network and you need to open the dashboard by token or through Tailscale
Not a fit when
- You use another agent stack: the dashboard reads OpenClaw data only
- You expect to control agents from a chat: the dashboard has no chat window of its own
- You need an exact billing summary: the author calls the savings figure a what-if comparison
Example request
Start the Command Center dashboard and show which sessions are active and how many tokens they spent todayLimitations
Only Node.js 18 or newer is required; temperature and disk I/O sensors need optional packages (`sysstat`, `lm-sensors`, `osx-cpu-temp`), without which the metrics show zeros. On Apple Silicon CPU temperature is read through `powermetrics` and asks for passwordless `sudo`. The savings estimate is built on your own spend figure, stored only in the browser, and is not billing. Using it beyond localhost needs a sign-in mode configured, and without one the dashboard should not be exposed to the network. The last commit is from October 2026.
How to disable. Stop the `node lib/server.js` process and delete the `skills/command-center` folder or the cloned repository. The panel does not change OpenClaw data and stores only settings in the browser.
FAQ
How do I start the dashboard?
Run `npx clawhub@latest install command-center`, then `node lib/server.js` in `skills/command-center`. The dashboard opens on port 3333. You can also clone the repository.
Does it need external services?
No, the author states that the dashboard runs fully locally, with no telemetry or CDN. For a remote server, Tailscale and Cloudflare Access modes are available.
How does it find the OpenClaw workspace?
The dashboard reads `OPENCLAW_WORKSPACE`, then `~/.openclaw-workspace` or `~/openclaw-workspace`, then common names such as `~/molty` and `~/clawd`.
What is Spacesuit?
The author's recommended companion for domain panels and agent workflows. Command Center works without it.
Can I manage scheduled jobs?
The job list comes through the OpenClaw CLI in read-only mode and is cached for 30 seconds. Control depends on the dashboard modes you enable.

README in short
The project description first explains how the dashboard relates to Spacesuit, then lists features and five security principles (sign-in modes, no external calls, a local address, read-only mode, an audit log). Quick start, workspace auto-detection, system dependencies and configuration follow.
