GitHub - oswarld/openshears: 🔪 THE OPENCLAW TERMINATOR 🦞

🦞 OpenShears

THE OPENCLAW TERMINATOR - Safely and completely remove OpenClaw from your system.

OpenShears is a powerful CLI utility designed to detect and annihilate all traces of OpenClaw, the popular local LLM gateway service. Just as kitchen shears are the tool of choice for dismantling a lobster, OpenShears is your weapon for taking apart OpenClaw.

🚀 Quick Start

You can run OpenShears directly without installing it:

Or clone and run locally:

git clone https://github.com/oswarld/openshears.git
cd openshears
npm install
npm run build
npm start

🎯 Features

• 🔍 Deep Scan: Detects hidden artifacts, including:
  • Global NPM packages (openclaw)
  • Configuration files (~/.openclaw, ~/.clawdbot)
  • Log files and cache
  • Running background processes
• 🛡️ Safe Mode: Always asks for confirmation before deleting anything.
• ⚡ Hard Kill: Terminates stubborn processes immediately.
• 🧹 Clean Sweep: Removes directories, files, and packages in the correct order.

⚠️ Warning

This tool is destructive. It is designed to permanently delete OpenClaw configuration, memory, and logs. Once confirmed, this action cannot be undone.
