OpenClaw + PM2 + Nginx Production Guide

Process Management With PM2

Use PM2 to run the Next.js app with restart resilience and startup persistence. Always save your PM2 process list after changes.

Nginx Reverse Proxy Rules

• Proxy pass to 127.0.0.1:3001
• Pass X-Real-IP and X-Forwarded-For headers
• Use HTTPS redirect from 80 to 443

SSL With Certbot

Issue certificates with certbot --nginx and verify auto-renewal with a dry run. Keep 80 and 443 open at firewall level.
