Workflows

Change Clawd's Color

Use scripts/patch_color.py:

# List available colors
python scripts/patch_color.py --list

# Apply preset
python scripts/patch_color.py blue

# Custom RGB
python scripts/patch_color.py --rgb 100,200,150

# Restore original
python scripts/patch_color.py --restore

Add Arms or Modify Art

Use scripts/patch_art.py:

# List variants
python scripts/patch_art.py --list

# Add arms
python scripts/patch_art.py --variant with-arms

# Individual modifications
python scripts/patch_art.py --add-left-arm
python scripts/patch_art.py --add-right-arm

# Restore original
python scripts/patch_art.py --restore

Extract Current Clawd

Use scripts/extract_clawd.py to see current state:

python scripts/extract_clawd.py

Manual Modifications

For custom changes not covered by scripts, edit cli.js directly:

  1. Backup: cp cli.js cli.js.bak
  2. Find patterns with grep
  3. Use sed or text editor to replace
  4. Test by running claude

Pattern examples:

# Find color definitions
grep -o 'clawd_body:"[^"]*"' cli.js | head -5

# Replace color
sed -i 's/rgb(215,119,87)/rgb(100,149,237)/g' cli.js
