Feature Flag Policy

This document lists the feature flags that control risky capabilities in ComfyUI-OpenClaw. Users should audit these flags before deploying to a public or untrusted network.

Warning

Enabling these flags increases the attack surface. Ensure you have read the Security Policy and use appropriate network controls (e.g., Tailscale, Reverse Proxy with Auth).

Risk Levels

  • Low: Safe for most deployments.
  • Medium: Exposure risk if misconfigured; requires token auth.
  • High: Significant risk; enables remote execution or bypasses safety checks.

Runtime Flags

Flag Default Risk Description
OPENCLAW_CONNECTOR_ADMIN_TOKEN None Medium Required for admin commands (stop/approve/trace) if server auth is enabled. If missing, admin commands fail safe.
OPENCLAW_ALLOW_REMOTE_ADMIN 0 High Be careful! Allows admin actions from non-loopback IPs if token is present (including writes from /openclaw/admin remote console). Default is loopback-only for admin.
OPENCLAW_ENABLE_EXTERNAL_TOOLS 0 High Enables admin-gated external tool listing/execution routes. Requires reviewed tool allowlist and sandbox policy; keep disabled on public surfaces unless explicitly justified.
OPENCLAW_BRIDGE_ENABLED 0 High Enables the sidecar bridge for remote orchestration. Requires OPENCLAW_BRIDGE_DEVICE_TOKEN (and in public posture also mTLS + device allowlist controls).
OPENCLAW_ALLOW_ANY_PUBLIC_LLM_HOST 0 High Bypasses the known-host allowlist for LLM base_url. Allows SSRF to public IPs.
OPENCLAW_LLM_ALLOW_PRIVATE_NETWORK 0 High Allows the configured LLM base_url host to resolve to private/reserved IPs while preserving exact-host scope and DNS pinning.
OPENCLAW_ALLOW_INSECURE_BASE_URL 0 Critical Allows HTTP (non-HTTPS) or private IP base_url for LLM. Risk of internal network scanning (SSRF).
OPENCLAW_MULTI_TENANT_ENABLED 0 High Enables fail-closed tenant boundary mode. Requests without valid tenant context can be rejected by design.
OPENCLAW_TENANT_HEADER X-OpenClaw-Tenant-Id Low Customizes tenant header extraction key for multi-tenant mode. Keep stable across all clients/proxies.
OPENCLAW_MULTI_TENANT_ALLOW_DEFAULT_FALLBACK 0 High Weakens strict tenant requirement by allowing implicit default tenant fallback when context is missing.
OPENCLAW_MULTI_TENANT_ALLOW_CONFIG_FALLBACK 0 Medium Allows tenant config lookup to fall back to global config when tenant branch is absent.
OPENCLAW_MULTI_TENANT_ALLOW_LEGACY_SECRET_FALLBACK 0 Medium Allows tenant secret lookup to fall back to legacy unscoped secret keys during migration.
OPENCLAW_1PASSWORD_ENABLED 0 Medium Enables optional local 1Password CLI key lookup. Requires explicit command allowlist (OPENCLAW_1PASSWORD_ALLOWED_COMMANDS) and vault config; fail-closed when misconfigured.
OPENCLAW_MAX_INFLIGHT_SUBMITS_PER_TENANT 1 Low Per-tenant execution concurrency cap used only in multi-tenant mode.
OPENCLAW_LOG_TRUNCATE_ON_START 0 Low Operational log hygiene toggle. If 1, truncates active openclaw.log at startup (once per process).
OPENCLAW_CONNECTOR_DISCORD_TOKEN None Medium Presence enables Discord Bot gateway.
OPENCLAW_CONNECTOR_LINE_CHANNEL_SECRET None Medium Presence enables LINE webhook listener. Requires a public HTTPS endpoint.
OPENCLAW_CONNECTOR_TELEGRAM_TOKEN None Low Presence enables Telegram long-polling. Outbound only.
OPENCLAW_OBSERVABILITY_TOKEN None Low Protects /openclaw/logs/tail and /openclaw/config. Recommended for all remote deployments.

Enabling Policy

  1. Documentation: Any PR adding a new risky flag MUST update this table.
  2. Default: All high-risk flags MUST default to 0 (Disabled).
  3. Validation: CI tests should run with default flags (secure) and verify risky features are unreachable.
