Uninstall the gateway service + local data (CLI remains).

• --workspace: remove workspace directories
• --app: remove the macOS app
• --all: remove service, state, workspace, and app
• --yes: skip confirmation prompts
• --non-interactive: disable prompts; requires --yes
• --dry-run: print actions without removing files

Examples:

openclaw backup create
openclaw uninstall
openclaw uninstall --service --yes --non-interactive
openclaw uninstall --state --workspace --yes --non-interactive
openclaw uninstall --all --yes
openclaw uninstall --dry-run

• --non-interactive requires --yes.
