Devices & Remote Access
Manage device pairing, remote node control, and secure gateway access.
Device Pairing
When a new device (another ClawManager instance, a mobile client, or a remote node) wants to connect to your gateway, it sends a pairing request. You can then approve or reject the request from the Pairing page.
Approved devices get a secure token that allows them to communicate with your gateway. You can revoke access at any time.
Actions
Security
Device pairing uses public key authentication. Each device generates a unique key pair, and only devices with approved keys can communicate with your gateway.
- • Review pending requests carefully - only approve devices you recognize
- • Revoke access immediately if a device is lost or compromised
- • Each device has specific roles and scopes that limit what it can do
Nodes (Remote Control)
The Nodes page lets you remotely control paired devices. Once a device is paired, you can interact with it directly from ClawManager:
- • Run commands - Execute shell commands on the remote node
- • Camera - Access the device camera
- • Screen - View the device screen
- • Location - Check device location
- • Notify - Send notifications to the device
Node capabilities depend on the device type and what the paired client supports. Not all features are available on all devices.
CLI Access
You can also manage devices from the command line:
