Headless OpenClaw AI gateway service on port 18789
Installs the openclaw npm package globally (package.json ->
npm install -g) so the gateway binary lands at
~/.npm-global/bin/openclaw, then runs it as the supervised
openclaw service (openclaw gateway --port 18789 --allow-unconfigured --bind loopback — loopback bind needs no
auth and matches the socat relay; unconfigured lets the headless
gateway start before any operator setup). socat
relays the loopback-bound gateway onto the container interface
and a data volume persists ~/.openclaw. Binary presence, the
supervised service, and the reachable port are all verifiable.
