# `openclaw reset`
Reset local config/state (keeps the CLI installed).
```bash
openclaw reset
openclaw reset --dry-run
openclaw reset --scope config --yes --non-interactive
openclaw reset --scope config+creds+sessions --yes --non-interactive
openclaw reset --scope full --yes --non-interactive
```
## Options
- `--scope <scope>`: `config`, `config+creds+sessions`, or `full`
- `--yes`: skip confirmation prompts
- `--non-interactive`: disable prompts; requires `--scope` and `--yes`
- `--dry-run`: print actions without removing files
## Scopes
| Scope | Removes | Stops gateway first |
| ----------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------- |
| `config` | config file only | no |
| `config+creds+sessions` | config file, OAuth/credentials dir, per-agent session directories | yes |
| `full` | state dir (including the shared SQLite database) plus workspace directories | yes |
`config+creds+sessions` and `full` stop a running managed gateway service before deleting state.
## Notes
- Run `openclaw backup create` first for a restorable snapshot before removing local state.
- Workspace setup state and attestations are rows in the shared SQLite database, so `full` removes them with the state directory; there are no current attestation sidecar files to remove separately.
- Without `--scope`, `openclaw reset` prompts interactively for the scope to remove.
- `--non-interactive` is only valid when both `--scope` and `--yes` are set.
- `config+creds+sessions` and `full` print `Next: openclaw onboard --install-daemon` when done.
