What is OpenClaw Deck?
OpenClaw Deck is a specialized interface designed for developers and power users who need to orchestrate multiple AI agents simultaneously. By launching a local Vite-based web environment, this tool allows you to interact with several agents in a single view, streamlining complex workflows and comparative testing. It is a key component of the Openclaw Skills ecosystem for local agent management.
Built for efficiency, the deck bridges the gap between CLI-based agent control and a modern, reactive web UI. It communicates directly with the local OpenClaw Gateway via WebSockets, ensuring low-latency communication and real-time status updates across all active columns.
OpenClaw Deck Use Cases
- Comparing outputs from multiple specialized AI agents simultaneously.
- Managing complex multi-agent workflows from a single visual dashboard.
- Debugging agent interactions in real-time through a dedicated web interface.
- Orchestrating parallel tasks across different agent configurations.
How OpenClaw Deck Works
- The skill checks for local dependencies such as Node.js and npm within the base directory.
- It triggers a Vite development server to host the local web application.
- The deck establishes a WebSocket connection to the OpenClaw Gateway on the local network.
- Users access the multi-column interface via a browser at the designated local port.
- The UI routes messages and commands through the proxy to individual active agents.
OpenClaw Deck Setup
To initialize this tool within Openclaw Skills, ensure you have Node.js and npm installed, then execute the following commands in the skill directory:
npm install
npm run dev
The dashboard will be available at http://localhost:5173. Ensure your gateway is running on the default port or update the VITE_GATEWAY_URL in your .env file.
OpenClaw Deck Data Schema & Taxonomy
The OpenClaw Deck primarily manages session state and UI configuration. It uses environment variables and local configuration for connectivity.
| Attribute | Description |
|---|---|
| VITE_GATEWAY_URL | The WebSocket endpoint for agent communication (default: ws://127.0.0.1:18789) |
| Column Configuration | Local state mapping agent IDs to specific UI columns |
| Shortcut Mapping | Fixed keyboard bindings for rapid navigation (Cmd+1-9, Cmd+K) |
OpenClaw Deck Advanced Features
- Full multi-column support for side-by-side agent comparison.
- Robust keyboard navigation including focus switching and column jumping.
- Dynamic agent addition via the Cmd+K modal for rapid scaling.
- Support for custom gateway URLs via environment variables for flexible Openclaw Skills deployments.
