Three steps to your AI-powered dashboard.

Install Glance

Option A: One-liner (Recommended)

curl -fsSL https://openglance.dev/install.sh | bash

Installs dependencies, sets up as a background service (launchd on macOS, systemd on Linux), and opens the dashboard.

Option B: Docker

git clone https://github.com/acfranzen/glance.git && cd glance && docker compose up

Option C: Manual

git clone https://github.com/acfranzen/glance.git
cd glance
pnpm install
pnpm dev

Open http://localhost:3333. On first run, Glance auto-generates a secure encryption key. Your data is stored locally.

Tell OpenClaw About It

Add to your OpenClaw workspace (TOOLS.md or memory):

### Glance Dashboard

- URL: http://localhost:3333
- Auth: Bearer <your-token>
- API: POST /api/widgets to create widgets
- API: POST /api/credentials to store API keys

Start Using It

You:"OpenClaw, add a widget showing my GitHub PRs"

OpenClaw:*creates the widget, stores your GitHub token, adds it to the dashboard*

You:"What needs my attention?"

OpenClaw:"You have 3 PRs waiting for review. One has failing CI."

That's it. OpenClaw handles the rest.
