Missing Control UI Assets

running clawdbot configure
complete process, receive error: Missing Control UI assets
◇  Select sections to configure
│  Continue
Missing Control UI assets. Build them with `pnpm ui:build` (auto-installs UI deps).

From multiple directories, try:
pnpm ui:build

Same error every time:
 ERR_PNPM_NO_IMPORTER_MANIFEST_FOUND  No package.json (or package.yaml, or package.json5) was found in "/Users/johnh".
Solution
You're on Bun! That's the issue — pnpm ui:build won't work since you're not using pnpm.

Try this:

git clone https://github.com/clawdbot/clawdbot.git ~/clawdbot-ref
cd ~/clawdbot-ref
bun install
bun run ui:build


Then try clawdbot configure again.

Alternative: If you don't need the UI right now, clawdbot configure should still work in CLI-only mode. Try:

bash
