# Hide OpenClaw Banner
The OpenClaw CLI banner is emitted during CLI bootstrap (Commander.js `preAction` hook) before the plugin system initializes. A plugin cannot suppress it. Use the built-in env var instead.
How to Apply
Add to the user's shell config (`~/.zshrc` or `~/.bashrc`):
export OPENCLAW_HIDE_BANNER=1Place it near any existing OpenClaw config (e.g., after the completions `source` line).
After editing, remind the user to run `source ~/.zshrc` or open a new terminal.
How to Revert
Remove the `OPENCLAW_HIDE_BANNER` line from the shell config, then `source ~/.zshrc`.
