# Snapshot Status Cards
**Announce at start:** "I'm generating a visual status card for your OpenClaw agent."
## What is a Snapshot?
A snapshot is a server-rendered visual status card — not a browser screenshot. Powered by Satori, it renders in ~200ms with no browser dependency.
The output is designed to look great in chat: compact, readable on mobile, and visually appealing enough to share. It shows token usage, session activity, error counts, and gateway health in a single glance.
Formats: PNG (default), SVG, or raw JSON for programmatic use.
## REST API
```bash
curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:41041/api/snapshot \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"detail":"standard","range":"6h","theme":"dark"}' \
-o snapshot.png
```
No-auth mode: start with `claw-insights start --no-auth`, then omit the Authorization header.
Response includes `Content-Disposition` header with timestamped filename.
## CLI
```bash
claw-insights snapshot # Save to ~/.claw-insights/snapshots/
claw-insights snapshot --quick -o status.png # Compact mobile snapshot
claw-insights snapshot --format json | jq . # JSON to stdout
claw-insights snapshot --dry-run # Preview parameters only
```
CLI flags: `--format`, `--detail`, `--range`, `--theme`, `--lang`, `-o <path>`, `-t <token>`, `--port`, `--quick`, `--dry-run`. Run `claw-insights snapshot --help` for full usage.
## Parameters
| Field | Default (REST / CLI) | Options | Description |
| -------- | ------------------------- | ----------------------------------- | ---------------------- |
| `detail` | `standard` | `compact` / `standard` / `full` | Detail level |
| `format` | `png` | `png` / `svg` / `json` | Output format |
| `range` | `24h` (REST) / `6h` (CLI) | `30m` / `1h` / `6h` / `12h` / `24h` | Time range for metrics |
| `theme` | `dark` | `dark` / `light` | Color theme |
| `lang` | `en` | `en` / `zh` | Language |
> **Note:** REST API and CLI have different default `range` values. REST defaults to `24h` (full day overview), CLI defaults to `6h` (quick status check). Both accept the same set of values.
### Which detail level?
- **compact** — Summary numbers only (session count, total tokens, error count). Best for embedding in chat messages.
- **standard** — Session list + metrics charts. Default for most use cases.
- **full** — Everything: session list, all charts, event log. Best for reports and archival.
## Common Workflows
### Push status card to a channel
Works with any messaging channel — Slack, Telegram, Discord, WhatsApp, etc.
```bash
# 1. Generate a compact status card
curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:41041/api/snapshot \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"detail":"compact","range":"6h"}' \
-o /tmp/status.png
# 2. Send via your channel's tool or API
# The compact detail level is optimized for mobile chat bubbles.
```
**Tips:**
- `compact` — best for chat messages (summary numbers only, small image)
- `standard` — best for daily check-ins (session list + charts)
- `full` — best for reports and archival
### Scheduled status report
```bash
# Full snapshot with 24h range
curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:41041/api/snapshot \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"detail":"full","range":"24h"}' \
-o /tmp/daily-report.png
```
### Programmatic metrics extraction
```bash
# Get raw data as JSON
curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:41041/api/snapshot \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"format":"json","range":"6h"}' \
-o metrics.json
```

## Error Handling
| Status | Cause | Fix |
| ------------------ | ---------------------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| `401` | Missing or invalid token | Check Bearer token, or use `--no-auth` mode |
| `502` | OpenClaw gateway not running | `openclaw gateway start` |
| `500` | Internal server error | Check logs: `~/.claw-insights/logs/` |
| Connection refused | claw-insights not running | `claw-insights start` |
