In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to show dashboards, visualizations, games, interactive demos, and other HTML content through a connected device's canvas view.
Why use it?
It lets an agent present generated or local web content on another device instead of returning only text in the terminal or chat.

Which agent this was written for is unclear — built for openclaw. Also seen: built for openclaw.

Not installable: its command points at a path on the author’s own machine, so it runs nowhere else. The line is /Users/you/clawd/canvas.

Getting it into your agent

There is no command for this one: it runs only inside a plugin, and the catalogue could not identify which plugin ships it. The source is linked below.

Made for: Claude Code, Codex.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

canvas scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

Canvas Skill

Display HTML content on connected OpenClaw nodes (Mac app, iOS, Android).

Overview

The canvas tool lets you present web content on any connected node's canvas view. Great for:

  • Displaying games, visualizations, dashboards
  • Showing generated HTML content
  • Interactive demos

How It Works

Architecture

┌─────────────────┐     ┌──────────────────┐     ┌─────────────┐
│  Canvas Host    │────▶│   Node Bridge    │────▶│  Node App   │
│  (HTTP Server)  │     │  (TCP Server)    │     │ (Mac/iOS/   │

  1. Canvas Host Server: Serves static HTML/CSS/JS files from canvasHost.root directory
  2. Node Bridge: Communicates canvas URLs to connected nodes
  3. Node Apps: Render the content in a WebView

Tailscale Integration

The canvas host server binds based on gateway.bind setting:

Bind Mode Server Binds To Canvas URL Uses
loopback 127.0.0.1 localhost (local only)
lan LAN interface LAN IP address
tailnet Tailscale interface Tailscale hostname
auto Best available Tailscale > LAN > loopback

Key insight: The canvasHostHostForBridge is derived from bridgeHost. When bound to Tailscale, nodes receive URLs like:

http://<tailscale-hostname>:18793/__openclaw__/canvas/<file>.html

This is why localhost URLs don't work - the node receives the Tailscale hostname from the bridge!

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

canvas is a skill published in the GitHub repository YeSongYun/openclaw-cn (56 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 1,421 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). It is 88% identical to canvas, differing in 7 lines, and is treated as a copy.
