- `--json`: emit line-delimited JSON

Notes:
- If you pass `--url`, the CLI does not auto-apply config or environment credentials.
- Local loopback pairing failures fall back to the configured local log file; explicit `--url` targets do not.
### `gateway <subcommand>`
Gateway CLI helpers (use `--url`, `--token`, `--password`, `--timeout`, `--expect-final` for RPC subcommands).

## Options
- `--limit <n>`: maximum number of log lines to return (default `200`)
- `--max-bytes <n>`: maximum bytes to read from the log file (default `250000`)
- `--follow`: follow the log stream
- `--interval <ms>`: polling interval while following (default `1000`)
- `--json`: emit line-delimited JSON events
- `--plain`: plain text output without styled formatting
- `--no-color`: disable ANSI colors
- `--local-time`: render timestamps in your local timezone
## Shared Gateway RPC options
`openclaw logs` also accepts the standard Gateway client flags:
- `--url <url>`: Gateway WebSocket URL
- `--token <token>`: Gateway token
- `--timeout <ms>`: timeout in ms (default `30000`)
- `--expect-final`: wait for a final response when the Gateway call is agent-backed
When you pass `--url`, the CLI does not auto-apply config or environment credentials. Include `--token` explicitly if the target Gateway requires auth.
## Examples
```bash
openclaw logs
openclaw logs --follow
openclaw logs --follow --interval 2000
openclaw logs --limit 500 --max-bytes 500000
openclaw logs --json
openclaw logs --plain
openclaw logs --no-color
openclaw logs --limit 500
openclaw logs --local-time
openclaw logs --follow --local-time
openclaw logs --url ws://127.0.0.1:18789 --token "$OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_TOKEN"
```
Use `--local-time` to render timestamps in your local timezone.
## Notes
- Use `--local-time` to render timestamps in your local timezone.
- If the local loopback Gateway asks for pairing, `openclaw logs` falls back to the configured local log file automatically. Explicit `--url` targets do not use this fallback.
