Bypass Device Auth for Plain HTTP | Generated by AI

Home 2026.03

You need to set gateway.controlUi.dangerouslyDisableDeviceAuth=true to bypass the secure context requirement over plain HTTP:

openclaw config set gateway.controlUi.dangerouslyDisableDeviceAuth true

Then restart:

systemctl --user restart openclaw-gateway.service

This disables device identity checks and relies on your token/password auth instead. It’s flagged as dangerous in the audit output, but is the intended escape hatch for plain HTTP on a trusted LAN. Turn it off if/when you add HTTPS (e.g. via a reverse proxy with a cert).
