Kilocode Model Sync
Workspace: ~/.openclaw/workspace-steve/
Scripts: ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/kilocode-model-sync/scripts/
Snapshots/diffs/patches: ~/.openclaw/workspace/kilocode-models/
Telegram delivery: Use the message tool with channel=telegram, target Guillaume's chat.
Step 1 — Run the sync script
source ~/.openclaw/.env && python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/kilocode-model-sync/scripts/sync_models.py
Parse the JSON result from stdout. It contains:
| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
status |
"changed" | "no_change" | "error" |
total_models |
Total models fetched from API |
diff.added |
New models not in previous snapshot |
diff.removed |
Models that disappeared |
diff.updated |
Models with changed fields |
snapshot_path |
Where today's snapshot was saved |
patch_path |
Path to the .patch.json file (only if changed) |
diff_path |
Path to the .diff.json file (only if changed) |
Step 2 — If status == "no_change"
Write a brief memory note and stop. No notification needed.
# memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md entry:
## Kilocode Model Sync — YYYY-MM-DD
- Status: no_change
- Total models: X
- No action required.
Step 3 — If status == "changed", notify Guillaume via Telegram
Use the message tool to send to Guillaume's Telegram:
🤖 *Kilocode Model Sync — {date}*
Found changes in the Kilocode model list:
✅ Added: {N} model(s)
❌ Removed: {N} model(s)
🔄 Updated: {N} model(s)
*New models:*
{for each added: • `id` — Name (ctx: Xk tokens, cost: $Y input/$Z output per 1k)}
*Removed models:*
{for each removed: • `id` — Name}
Reply to Grog: `@steve approve` to apply, or `@steve skip` to ignore.
Format costs as $0.001/1k (multiply the raw per-token value × 1000).
Use free for models with 0 cost on both input and output.
Step 4 — Wait for approval signal from Grog
Grog will relay a sessions_send message to your session containing either:
approve— proceed to applyskip— log and stop
Step 5 — If approved, apply the patch
python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/kilocode-model-sync/scripts/apply_patch.py \x3Cpatch_path>
The script:
- Backs up
openclaw.jsonwith a timestamp - Replaces
models.providers.kilocode.modelswith the new list - Runs
openclaw gateway restart - Polls
openclaw gateway statusuntilRPC probe: ok(up to 30s)
Result fields:
status:"ok"|"applied_restart_failed"backup_path: where the backup was savedgateway.ok: true/falsegateway.error: error message if failed
Step 6 — Write mission control entry
Append to ~/.openclaw/workspace/memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md:
## Kilocode Model Sync — YYYY-MM-DD
- **Status:** Applied ✅
- **Added:** N models — list ids
- **Removed:** N models — list ids
- **Updated:** N models — list ids
- **Backup:** backup_path
- **Gateway restart:** ok / failed (error message)
- **Approved by:** Guillaume (via Telegram)
Step 7 — Send Telegram confirmation
✅ *Kilocode Model Sync — Applied*
{N} new models added to openclaw.json.
{N} models removed.
Gateway restarted successfully. ✅
Backup saved at: {backup_path}
If gateway restart failed:
⚠️ *Kilocode Model Sync — Patch Applied, Gateway Restart Failed*
Models were written to openclaw.json but the gateway did not restart cleanly.
Error: {error}
Please restart manually: `openclaw gateway restart`
Step 8 — Report summary to Grog (sessions_send to main session)
After completion, send a concise summary to the main agent session so Grog can relay it
to Guillaume if needed. Use sessions_send with label=main or sessionKey=agent:main:main.
Error handling
- If
sync_models.pyexits with status"error": notify Guillaume via Telegram with the error, stop. - If
apply_patch.pyfails to write config: the script auto-restores from backup; report failure. - If gateway doesn't come back: report in Telegram, tell Guillaume to restart manually.
- Always write a memory note even on failure.
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install kilocode-model-sync - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/kilocode-model-sync - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
