autClaw runtime directories and paths

Use this page to confirm which autClaw directories must be persisted. Before recreating a Docker container, moving a NAS directory, or backing up an instance, record the database, plugin, frontend asset, and runtime dependency paths.

Docker default paths

Purpose	Path
Host persistent directory	`/opt/autclaw`
Container runtime directory	`/opt/autclaw`
Database	`/opt/autclaw/autMan.db`
Frontend static assets	`/opt/autclaw/dist/`
Plugin directory	`/opt/autclaw/plugin/`
mise runtime	`/opt/autclaw/envs/mise`
Dependency package root	`/opt/autclaw/envs/packages`

Run a release artifact directly

When you run a release artifact directly, runtime_root is the directory that contains the autClaw executable. By default, autClaw uses these paths under that directory:

autMan.db
dist/
plugin/
envs/mise
envs/packages

Default port

When you run a normal artifact directly and do not set HTTP_ADDR, the backend listens on:

:8200

The Docker image sets this explicitly:

HTTP_ADDR=:8200

For a new instance, follow How to deploy autClaw with Docker.
For container recreation, logs, and update commands, use autClaw Docker operations.
To check which paths are preserved during application upgrades, read How to upgrade autClaw.
