Snapshot

Snapshot renders your Claw Insights dashboard as an image on the server — no browser required.

What It Does

Claw Insights captures the current state of your dashboard (gateway status, sessions, metrics, events) and produces a static image or structured data export. Everything is rendered server-side, so you can generate snapshots from scripts, cron jobs, or AI agents.

How to Use It

There are three ways to generate a snapshot:

  • CLI — the simplest option for quick captures and scripts. See CLI Commands.
  • REST API — call the HTTP endpoint from any language or tool. See REST API.
  • MCP Protocol — let AI agents request snapshots directly. See MCP Integration.

Quick Example

bash
claw-insights snapshot -o status.png

Output Formats

FormatUse case
PNGShare in Slack, Telegram, or reports
SVGEmbed in web pages, scales to any size
JSONFeed into other tools or dashboards

Customization

Every snapshot can be tailored:

  • Detail levelcompact (summary only), standard (default), or full (everything)
  • Time range — match any granularity: 30m, 1h, 6h, 12h, 24h
  • Theme — dark or light
  • Language — English or 中文

Use Cases

  • Push to Slack / Telegram — send a daily status image to your team channel
  • Scheduled reports — cron job that emails a PNG every morning
  • Agent self-monitoring — your AI agent captures its own dashboard and reasons about it

TIP

Snapshots respect the same data and permissions as the live dashboard — what you see is what you get.
