Workspace

The Workspace page is a file browser and editor for your ~/.openclaw directory. It lets you view and edit agent configuration files, memory logs, and other OpenClaw files without leaving the dashboard.

File Browser

The left panel shows a directory listing with:

• Folder icons — yellow folder icons for directories
• File icons — different icons for .md, .json, and other file types
• File sizes — displayed next to each file
• Binary indicator — non-previewable files are marked as “binary”

Navigate using breadcrumbs at the top. Click any breadcrumb segment to jump to that directory.

Tabs

The workspace supports multiple tabs:

• Click the + button to open a new tab
• The tab bar appears above the breadcrumbs when more than one tab is open
• Each tab shows the current file or directory name (truncated to ~12 characters)
• Only the active tab shows a close button
• Tab state (open tabs and their paths) persists to localStorage

File Preview

Click any file to open it in the preview panel. Supported formats:

• Markdown (.md) — rendered with full Markdown formatting
• JSON (.json) — pretty-printed with syntax formatting
• Plain text — displayed as-is with line numbers

Editor Options

Both read and edit modes have a settings popover with:

• Text size — adjustable font size (6–24px)
• Line wrap — toggle word wrapping
• File info — show/hide character and line counts

File Editing

Click Edit on any previewable file to enter edit mode:

• Full textarea editor with monospace font
• Line numbers gutter (synced via a hidden mirror div for accurate line heights)
• Cmd/Ctrl+S to save (shows confirmation dialog)
• Escape to cancel (warns if unsaved changes)
• Edit mode is indicated by an amber “Edit Mode” banner

Starred Items

Star frequently accessed files or folders by clicking the ★ icon in the breadcrumb bar. Access your starred items from the Starred button in the header.
