+## OpenClaw Gateway Crash Loop Fix
+
+Fixed OpenClaw gateway crash loop caused by missing `controlUi.allowedOrigins` configuration. The gateway was set to `bind: "lan"` which added a Tailscale interface (100.119.174.58) as a non-loopback address, triggering OpenClaw's security check that requires explicit origin allowlisting for non-loopback Control UI access.
+
+Error: `non-loopback Control UI requires gateway.controlUi.allowedOrigins (set explicit origins), or set gateway.controlUi.dangerouslyAllowHostHeaderOriginFallback=true`
+
+Implemented fix by editing `/home/nicholai/.openclaw/openclaw.json` to add `controlUi` section with `allowedOrigins` array containing:
+- Loopback addresses: `http://localhost:18789`, `http://127.0.0.1:18789`
+- Local network: `http://10.0.0.189:18789`
+- Tailscale interface: `http://100.119.174.58:18789`
+- Hostname: `http://archlinux:18789`
+
+The `controlUi` block was inserted between `auth` and `tailscale` sections within the `gateway` config object. Service restart verified via `systemctl --user restart openclaw-gateway.service` with status and journal log inspection.
