# Control UI (browser)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Control UI is a small **Vite + Lit** single-page app served by the Gateway under:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2025-12-19 05:13:07 +00:00
|
|
|
|
- `http://<host>:18789/`
|
2025-12-18 22:40:46 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It speaks **directly to the Gateway WebSocket** on the same port.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## What it can do (today)
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Chat with the model via Gateway WS (`chat.history`, `chat.send`, `chat.abort`)
|
|
|
|
|
|
- List nodes via Gateway WS (`node.list`)
|
|
|
|
|
|
- View/edit `~/.clawdis/clawdis.json` via Gateway WS (`config.get`, `config.set`)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Tailnet access (recommended)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Expose the Gateway on your Tailscale interface and require a token:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
|
clawdis gateway --bind tailnet --token "$(openssl rand -hex 32)"
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then open:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- `http://<tailscale-ip>:18789/ui/`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Paste the token into the UI settings (it’s sent as `connect.params.auth.token`).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Building the UI
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Gateway serves static files from `dist/control-ui`. Build them with:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
|
pnpm ui:install
|
|
|
|
|
|
pnpm ui:build
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For local development (separate dev server):
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
|
pnpm ui:install
|
|
|
|
|
|
pnpm ui:dev
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then point the UI at your Gateway WS URL (e.g. `ws://127.0.0.1:18789`).
