# Uninstall

# Uninstall

Two paths:

* **Easy path** if `equabot` is still installed.
* **Manual service removal** if the CLI is gone but the service is still running.

## Easy path (CLI still installed)

Recommended: use the built-in uninstaller:

```bash theme={null}
equabot uninstall
```

Non-interactive (automation / npx):

```bash theme={null}
equabot uninstall --all --yes --non-interactive
npx -y equabot uninstall --all --yes --non-interactive
```

Manual steps (same result):

1. Stop the gateway service:

```bash theme={null}
equabot gateway stop
```

2. Uninstall the gateway service (launchd/systemd/schtasks):

```bash theme={null}
equabot gateway uninstall
```

3. Delete state + config:

```bash theme={null}
rm -rf "${EQUABOT_STATE_DIR:-$HOME/.equabot}"
```

If you set `EQUABOT_CONFIG_PATH` to a custom location outside the state dir, delete that file too.

4. Delete your workspace (optional, removes agent files):

```bash theme={null}
rm -rf ~/equa
```

5. Remove the CLI install (pick the one you used):

```bash theme={null}
npm rm -g equabot
pnpm remove -g equabot
bun remove -g equabot
```

6. If you installed the macOS app:

```bash theme={null}
rm -rf /Applications/Equabot.app
```

Notes:

* If you used profiles (`--profile` / `EQUABOT_PROFILE`), repeat step 3 for each state dir (defaults are `~/.equabot-<profile>`).
* In remote mode, the state dir lives on the **gateway host**, so run steps 1-4 there too.

## Manual service removal (CLI not installed)

Use this if the gateway service keeps running but `equabot` is missing.

### macOS (launchd)

Default label is `com.equabot.gateway` (or `com.equabot.<profile>`):

```bash theme={null}
launchctl bootout gui/$UID/com.equabot.gateway
rm -f ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.equabot.gateway.plist
```

If you used a profile, replace the label and plist name with `com.equabot.<profile>`.

### Linux (systemd user unit)

Default unit name is `equabot-gateway.service` (or `equabot-gateway-<profile>.service`):

```bash theme={null}
systemctl --user disable --now equabot-gateway.service
rm -f ~/.config/systemd/user/equabot-gateway.service
systemctl --user daemon-reload
```

### Windows (Scheduled Task)

Default task name is `Equabot Gateway` (or `Equabot Gateway (<profile>)`).
The task script lives under your state dir.

```powershell theme={null}
schtasks /Delete /F /TN "Equabot Gateway"
Remove-Item -Force "$env:USERPROFILE\.equabot\gateway.cmd"
```

If you used a profile, delete the matching task name and `~\.equabot-<profile>\gateway.cmd`.

## Normal install vs source checkout

### Normal install (install.sh / npm / pnpm / bun)

If you used `https://equabot.com/install.sh` or `install.ps1`, the CLI was installed with `npm install -g equabot@latest`.
Remove it with `npm rm -g equabot` (or `pnpm remove -g` / `bun remove -g` if you installed that way).

### Source checkout (git clone)

If you run from a repo checkout (`git clone` + `equabot ...` / `bun run equabot ...`):

1. Uninstall the gateway service **before** deleting the repo (use the easy path above or manual service removal).
2. Delete the repo directory.
3. Remove state + workspace as shown above.
