# Uninstall
Two paths:
- **Easy path** if `moltbot` is still installed.
- **Easy path** if `openclaw` is still installed.
- **Manual service removal** if the CLI is gone but the service is still running.

1) Stop the gateway service:
```bash
moltbot gateway stop
openclaw gateway stop
```
2) Uninstall the gateway service (launchd/systemd/schtasks):
```bash
moltbot gateway uninstall
openclaw gateway uninstall
```
3) Delete state + config:
```bash
rm -rf "${CLAWDBOT_STATE_DIR:-$HOME/.clawdbot}"
rm -rf "${OPENCLAW_STATE_DIR:-$HOME/.openclaw}"
```
If you set `CLAWDBOT_CONFIG_PATH` to a custom location outside the state dir, delete that file too.
If you set `OPENCLAW_CONFIG_PATH` to a custom location outside the state dir, delete that file too.
4) Delete your workspace (optional, removes agent files):
```bash
rm -rf ~/clawd
rm -rf ~/.openclaw/workspace
```
5) Remove the CLI install (pick the one you used):
```bash
npm rm -g moltbot
pnpm remove -g moltbot
bun remove -g moltbot
npm rm -g openclaw
pnpm remove -g openclaw
bun remove -g openclaw
```
6) If you installed the macOS app:
```bash
rm -rf /Applications/Moltbot.app
rm -rf /Applications/OpenClaw.app
```
Notes:
- If you used profiles (`--profile` / `CLAWDBOT_PROFILE`), repeat step 3 for each state dir (defaults are `~/.clawdbot-<profile>`).
- If you used profiles (`--profile` / `OPENCLAW_PROFILE`), repeat step 3 for each state dir (defaults are `~/.openclaw-<profile>`).
- In remote mode, the state dir lives on the **gateway host**, so run steps 1-4 there too.
## Manual service removal (CLI not installed)
Use this if the gateway service keeps running but `moltbot` is missing.

### macOS (launchd)
Default label is `bot.molt.gateway` (or `bot.molt.<profile>`; legacy `com.clawdbot.*` may still exist):
Default label is `bot.molt.gateway` (or `bot.molt.<profile>`; legacy `com.openclaw.*` may still exist):
```bash
launchctl bootout gui/$UID/bot.molt.gateway
rm -f ~/Library/LaunchAgents/bot.molt.gateway.plist
```
If you used a profile, replace the label and plist name with `bot.molt.<profile>`. Remove any legacy `com.clawdbot.*` plists if present.
If you used a profile, replace the label and plist name with `bot.molt.<profile>`. Remove any legacy `com.openclaw.*` plists if present.
### Linux (systemd user unit)
Default unit name is `moltbot-gateway.service` (or `moltbot-gateway-<profile>.service`):
Default unit name is `openclaw-gateway.service` (or `openclaw-gateway-<profile>.service`):
```bash
systemctl --user disable --now moltbot-gateway.service
rm -f ~/.config/systemd/user/moltbot-gateway.service
systemctl --user disable --now openclaw-gateway.service
rm -f ~/.config/systemd/user/openclaw-gateway.service
systemctl --user daemon-reload
```
### Windows (Scheduled Task)
Default task name is `Moltbot Gateway` (or `Moltbot Gateway (<profile>)`).
Default task name is `OpenClaw Gateway` (or `OpenClaw Gateway (<profile>)`).
The task script lives under your state dir.
```powershell
schtasks /Delete /F /TN "Moltbot Gateway"
Remove-Item -Force "$env:USERPROFILE\.clawdbot\gateway.cmd"
schtasks /Delete /F /TN "OpenClaw Gateway"
Remove-Item -Force "$env:USERPROFILE\.openclaw\gateway.cmd"
```
If you used a profile, delete the matching task name and `~\.clawdbot-<profile>\gateway.cmd`.
If you used a profile, delete the matching task name and `~\.openclaw-<profile>\gateway.cmd`.
## Normal install vs source checkout
### Normal install (install.sh / npm / pnpm / bun)
If you used `https://molt.bot/install.sh` or `install.ps1`, the CLI was installed with `npm install -g moltbot@latest`.
Remove it with `npm rm -g moltbot` (or `pnpm remove -g` / `bun remove -g` if you installed that way).
If you used `https://openclaw.bot/install.sh` or `install.ps1`, the CLI was installed with `npm install -g openclaw@latest`.
Remove it with `npm rm -g openclaw` (or `pnpm remove -g` / `bun remove -g` if you installed that way).
### Source checkout (git clone)
If you run from a repo checkout (`git clone` + `moltbot ...` / `bun run moltbot ...`):
If you run from a repo checkout (`git clone` + `openclaw ...` / `bun run openclaw ...`):
1) Uninstall the gateway service **before** deleting the repo (use the easy path above or manual service removal).
2) Delete the repo directory.
