Deploy to Dev CVM

Deploy all local changes to the TDX CVM dev environment.

Target

  • SSH host: tdx (ProxyJump through gpu26, port 10022)
  • Code path on CVM: /home/root/openclaw/
  • Guest OS: Alpine/BusyBox (no rsync)

Steps

  1. Check connectivity:

    ssh tdx "echo ok"
    
  2. Detect changed files using git diff --name-only HEAD and git status --short to find all modified/untracked files.

  3. Sync all changed files to the CVM, preserving directory structure. Use scp for each file/directory since the CVM lacks rsync. Sync to /home/root/openclaw/.

  4. Rebuild compose-api if any compose-api/ files changed:

    ssh tdx "cd /home/root/openclaw/compose-api && docker build --build-arg CACHEBUST=$(date +%s) -t openclaw-compose-api:local ."
    
  5. Rebuild worker if any worker/ files changed:

    ssh tdx "cd /home/root/openclaw/worker && docker build --build-arg CACHEBUST=$(date +%s) -t openclaw-nearai-worker:local ."
    
  6. Redeploy containers:

    ssh tdx "cd /home/root/openclaw && docker compose -f deploy/docker-compose.dstack.yml --env-file deploy/.env.dstack up -d"
    
  7. Verify deployment:

    ssh tdx "curl -s http://localhost:8080/version"
    

Important notes

  • Always run from the project root directory
  • The CVM is Alpine/BusyBox - no rsync, limited GNU flags
  • Build output can be long - watch for errors at the end
  • After deploy, verify with the version endpoint
