Remote Mac

Use when the user says MacBook, Mac Studio, clawmac, foundationclaw, foundationmac, megaclaw, miniclaw, Molty, Tailscale, or asks to run/check something on one of Peter's Macs.

Peter's Topology

• Primary workstation for interactive approvals and day-to-day work: Peter's SF Mac Studio, local/Tailscale name steipete-studio-sf. Peter's MacBook Pro (steipete-mbp) is the portable/fallback workstation; do not route prompts there merely because it is online.
• London workhorse: Mac Studio, Tailscale peters-mac-studio-1, usually best reached as steipete@steipete-macstudio.local when on its LAN.
• San Francisco machines: mac-studio-sf (100.72.210.5), clawstudio (100.86.255.34; formerly mac-studio-sf2, renamed 2026-08-05 — the old userspace node mac-studio-sf2 (100.70.201.26) is retired and shows as a stale offline entry in tailscale status; never treat it as a separate or offline machine), and the separately owned mac-mini-sf (local/Tailscale name steipete-mini-sf, 100.78.75.51; SSH steipete@100.78.75.51). Always prefer live Tailscale addresses over these cached values. The Mini uses classic key-only OpenSSH over the tailnet TCP 22 grant because GUI Tailscale builds cannot host Tailscale SSH. Its own key is installed on both SF Studios, MegaClaw, and MiniClaw; see manager/docs/fleet-setup.md for live proof and offline/provider-blocked directions. Do not confuse it with FoundationClaw.
• Personal cloud OpenClaw: clawmac (Peter may typo/say crabmac), MacStadium service 100121942, Tailscale/SSH steipete@clawmac, gateway via LaunchAgent ai.openclaw.gateway, loopback 127.0.0.1:18789, Telegram connected. The current 2026-08-01 provider network outage is tracked by Atlanta remote hands on tickets #11481/#11484; one hard reboot restored SSH only briefly, so do not repeat power cycles.
• Network split:
  • corporate: Peter's work-managed environment. Treat Mac Studio as the main remote Mac to configure and inspect there.
  • personal: Peter's personal LAN / personal cloud environment, including clawmac.
• Network boundary: clawmac and the personal LAN are unreachable from Peter's corporate Mac. Never use clawmac as a relay or LAN vantage from there.
• Molty's former Mac Studio gateway is retired and must remain disabled; real Molty runs separately on Hetzner. Do not use the old Mac Studio runtime as a healthy-state expectation.
• megaclaw: Virtualized.gg product 22 (Mac Studio M4 Max, Phoenix), the active alternate Mac worker. Tailscale/SSH steipete@megaclaw. No OpenClaw gateway by design — the personal claw runs on clawmac; do not configure or start one on megaclaw.
• miniclaw: Virtualized.gg product 24 (Mac mini M4 Pro, Phoenix), public SSH steipete@131.143.4.3. Live 2026-08-01 state regressed: the privileged Homebrew daemon owns stale duplicate miniclaw-1 and cannot reach coordination, while canonical miniclaw is unusable. Use public SSH until the stored personal admin credential is explicitly authorized for a privileged repair; do not claim the canonical tailnet path is healthy from provider SSH alone.
• foundationclaw: MacStadium service 100124960, M2.L in Atlanta, public address recorded in computers.yaml. Provider SSH verified a Mac14,12 M2 Pro Mac mini, hardware UUID, and the administrator admin account; its canonical local hostname is foundationclaw. Signed Tailscale and Jump Desktop Connect v10 are installed, but the previously working provider credential stopped authenticating and a data-preserving reset is pending on ticket #11386 before Tailscale enrollment and first-run GUI permissions can continue. Do not merge it with the separate SF Mini.
