Let me check the actual install docs path so I don’t make up commands.

Yep, GCP works fine.

I’d use a Compute Engine VM, not Cloud Run.

Best path:

  1. Create a VM, Debian 12, e2-small minimum (20 GB disk).
  2. SSH into it.
  3. Follow the official GCP guide: https://docs.openclaw.ai/install/gcp
  4. Access the dashboard from your laptop via SSH tunnel:
    gcloud compute ssh openclaw-gateway --zone=us-central1-a -- -L 18789:127.0.0.1:18789
  5. Open:
    http://127.0.0.1:18789/

Important gotchas:

  • e2-micro often OOMs during the first Docker build. e2-small is the real minimum, e2-medium is smoother.
