# Contributing
Thanks for helping improve Claw3D.
Please use GitHub Issues for bugs, feature requests, and questions about planned work.
## Before you start
- Install OpenClaw and confirm the gateway runs locally.
- This repo is UI-only and reads config from `~/.openclaw` with legacy fallback to `~/.moltbot` or `~/.clawdbot`.
- It does not run or build the gateway from source.
- Read `CODE_DOCUMENTATION.md` for the repo code map, extension points, and the recommended onboarding order through the codebase.
- Use `ROADMAP.md` if you are looking for starter work or near-term priorities.
## Local setup
```bash
git clone https://github.com/iamlukethedev/Claw3D.git
cd claw3d
npm install
cp .env.example .env
npm run dev
```
## Support And Routing
- Use the GitHub bug and feature templates for normal public contributions.
- Use `SUPPORT.md` for help-routing and maintainer contact guidance.
- Use `SECURITY.md` for sensitive security reports, and avoid posting exploit details in public issues.
## Testing
- `npm run lint`
- `npm run typecheck`
- `npm run test`
- `npm run e2e` (requires `npx playwright install`)
If your change touches generated UX audit artifacts, clean them before committing with `npm run cleanup:ux-artifacts`.
## Pull requests
- Keep PRs focused and small.
- Prefer one task per PR.
- Include the tests you ran.
- Link to the relevant issue when possible.
- If you changed gateway behavior, call it out explicitly.
- Update docs when the user-facing behavior or architecture changes.
- If you touched bundled assets, vendored code, or dependency/licensing posture, update the relevant `THIRD_PARTY_*` documentation in the same PR.
## Reporting issues
