clawker stop

Stop one or more running containers

​
Synopsis

Stops one or more running clawker containers. The container is sent a SIGTERM signal, then after a timeout period (default 10s), it is sent SIGKILL if still running. When —agent is provided, the container names are resolved as clawker.<project>.<agent> using the project from your .clawker.yaml configuration. Container names can be:
  • Full name: clawker.myproject.myagent
  • Container ID: abc123…
clawker stop [OPTIONS] CONTAINER [CONTAINER...] [flags]

​
Examples

  # Stop a container using agent name (resolves via project config)
  clawker container stop --agent dev

  # Stop a container by full name (10s timeout)
  clawker container stop clawker.myapp.dev

  # Stop multiple containers
  clawker container stop clawker.myapp.dev clawker.myapp.writer

  # Stop with a custom timeout (20 seconds)
  clawker container stop --time 20 --agent dev

​
