summary: "Run multiple Clawdbot Gateways on one host (isolation, ports, and profiles)"
|
|
read_when:
|
|
- Running more than one Gateway on the same machine
|
|
- You need isolated config/state/ports per Gateway

# Multiple Gateways (same host)
|
|
|
|
Most setups should use one Gateway because a single Gateway can handle multiple messaging connections and agents. If you need stronger isolation or redundancy, run separate Gateways. Both are supported.
|
|
|
|
## Isolation checklist (required)
|
|
- `CLAWDBOT_CONFIG_PATH` — per-instance config file
|
|
- `CLAWDBOT_STATE_DIR` — per-instance sessions, creds, caches
|
|
- `agents.defaults.workspace` — per-instance workspace root
|
|
- `gateway.port` (or `--port`) — unique per instance
|
|
- Derived ports (bridge/browser/canvas) must not overlap
|
|
|
|
If these are shared, you will hit config races and port conflicts.
|
|
|
|
## Recommended: profiles (`--profile`)
|
|
|
|
Profiles auto-scope `CLAWDBOT_STATE_DIR` + `CLAWDBOT_CONFIG_PATH` and suffix service names.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# main
|
|
clawdbot --profile main setup
|
|
clawdbot --profile main gateway --port 18789
|
|
|
|
# rescue
|
|
clawdbot --profile rescue setup
|
|
clawdbot --profile rescue gateway --port 19001
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Per-profile daemons:
|
|
```bash
|
|
clawdbot --profile main daemon install
|
|
clawdbot --profile rescue daemon install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Port mapping (derived)
|
|
|
|
Base port = `gateway.port` (or `CLAWDBOT_GATEWAY_PORT` / `--port`).
|
|
|
|
- `bridge.port = base + 1`
|
|
- `browser.controlUrl port = base + 2`
|
|
- `canvasHost.port = base + 4`
|
|
- Browser profile CDP ports auto-allocate from `browser.controlPort + 9 .. + 108`
|
|
|
|
If you override any of these in config or env, you must keep them unique per instance.
|
|
|
|
## Browser/CDP notes (common footgun)
|
|
|
|
- Do **not** pin `browser.controlUrl` or `browser.cdpUrl` to the same values on multiple instances.
|
|
- Each instance needs its own browser control port and CDP range.
|
|
- If you need explicit CDP ports, set `browser.profiles.<name>.cdpPort` per instance.
|
|
- Remote Chrome: use `browser.profiles.<name>.cdpUrl` (per profile, per instance).
|
|
|
|
## Manual env example
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
CLAWDBOT_CONFIG_PATH=~/.clawdbot/main.json \
|
|
CLAWDBOT_STATE_DIR=~/.clawdbot-main \
|
|
clawdbot gateway --port 18789
|
|
|
|
CLAWDBOT_CONFIG_PATH=~/.clawdbot/rescue.json \
|
|
CLAWDBOT_STATE_DIR=~/.clawdbot-rescue \
|
|
clawdbot gateway --port 19001
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Quick checks
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
clawdbot --profile main status
|
|
clawdbot --profile rescue status
|
|
clawdbot --profile rescue browser status
|
|
```
