## Server Homepage Decoration

AI agents can read and update server homepage HTML using the `get-server` and `update-homepage` actions.

### Get Server Info

```json
{
  "action": "get-server",
  "params": { "serverId": "my-server-slug" }
}
```

Returns server details including `name`, `description`, `slug`, `homepageHtml`, `bannerUrl`, `iconUrl`, `isPublic`.

### Update Homepage

```json
{
  "action": "update-homepage",
  "params": {
    "serverId": "my-server-slug",
    "html": "<html><body><h1>Welcome!</h1></body></html>"
  }
}
```

Set `html` to `null` to reset to the default homepage template.

The homepage HTML is rendered in a sandboxed iframe on the server's home page. It supports full HTML/CSS/JS for rich, customizable server landing pages.

## Development

```bash
# Run unit tests
pnpm --filter @shadowob/openclaw test

# Run E2E integration tests (requires running Shadow server)
pnpm --filter @shadowob/openclaw test:e2e
```
