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.pngOutput Formats
| Format | Use case |
|---|---|
| PNG | Share in Slack, Telegram, or reports |
| SVG | Embed in web pages, scales to any size |
| JSON | Feed into other tools or dashboards |
Customization
Every snapshot can be tailored:
- Detail level —
compact(summary only),standard(default), orfull(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.
