Deployment & Operations
Deploy ClawQL with Helm (manifests/charts/clawql-mcp) for the full IDP stack, or run clawql-mcp locally for a minimal MCP surface.
Install paths
| Goal | Start here |
|---|---|
| Full local IDP stack (Docker Desktop) | make local-k8s-up → Kubernetes · Helm |
| Tier 1 Docker Compose | docs/examples/clawql-local-docker-compose — Compose README |
| Minimal MCP | Quickstart |
| Document pipeline (pdf-inspector + eight vendors) | IDP Platform · Document pipeline learn page · IDP hub (repo) |
| Dashboard + Agent Chat | Dashboard on Kubernetes |
| Managed VM tiers (AWS/GCP/CF) | Golden host images — Packer bake + Pulumi provision |
| Secrets & upgrades | Operations guide · Helm |
Platform operations
- Streamable HTTP & Cloud Run — HTTP transport, gRPC, Docker image
- OpenClaw + ClawQL — gateway integration
- Security overview — golden image pipeline and Kyverno
- Docker Desktop: Istio & observability — lab mTLS + LGTM+
- Tailscale & Headscale — private tailnet MCP access
Planned (design only)
The full three-tier Operator vision beyond the 7.0 scaffold, and the broader four-stack Docker Compose layout (#251), remain design references. Tier 1 Compose and the opt-in ClawQLInstance scaffold already ship — see Operator target architecture.
