The error ERR_UNKNOWN_BUILTIN_MODULE: No such built-in module: node:sqlite happens because you're using Node.js v23.2.0, which may have an issue with the experimental node:sqlite module on certain systems.

Solution: Downgrade to Node.js v22 (LTS), which is the recommended runtime for Clawdbot.

Quick fix:

nvm use 22
npm install -g clawdbot@latest
clawdbot onboard --install-daemon

If you don't have nvm:

# Install nvm first if needed
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.40.0/install.sh | bash
source ~/.bashrc  # or ~/.zshrc

# Then install and use Node 22
nvm install 22
nvm use 22

The Clawdbot package.json specifies "node": ">=22.12.0" as the required runtime. Node 23 is still relatively new and can have compatibility issues with native modules like SQLite.

Let me know if that resolves it! 🦐

That worked, thanks
