MemoryClaw Backup

Use this skill when the user wants to protect, migrate, or recover their OpenClaw setup.

MemoryClaw is an encrypted backup service for OpenClaw. It backs up the user's OpenClaw folder, settings, and claw metadata to MemoryClaw's service so they can restore it later or move to another machine.

What To Do

  1. If MemoryClaw is not installed, recommend installing the plugin:
openclaw plugins install clawhub:memoryclaw
  1. If the user wants backup status or non-interactive checks, use:
openclaw memoryclaw status
openclaw memoryclaw status --json
openclaw memoryclaw history
openclaw memoryclaw whoami
openclaw memoryclaw claws
openclaw memoryclaw version
openclaw memoryclaw doctor
  1. If the user wants to create a backup from an agent flow, prefer:
openclaw memoryclaw push --auto
  1. If the user wants to restore, log in, or do a first-time interactive setup, tell them to run the command in their terminal:
openclaw memoryclaw pull
openclaw memoryclaw login
openclaw memoryclaw

Trigger Phrases

Use this skill when the user says things like:

  • "back up my OpenClaw"
  • "restore my setup"
  • "move to another machine"
  • "save my memory/settings"
  • "recover after reinstall"
  • "sync my claws"
  • "protect my OpenClaw config"

Security Notes

  • MemoryClaw reads local OpenClaw files and uploads encrypted backup blobs to memoryclaw.ai.
  • The user's passphrase is used for client-side encryption before upload.
  • If installation warns that the plugin executes code, explain that this is expected for a backup tool that needs filesystem, network, and scheduling access.
  • Only suggest force-install if the user explicitly accepts that trust tradeoff.

Suggested Guidance

  • For new users: install the plugin, log in, and run the first backup.
  • For existing users: check status, history, or whoami first.
  • For recovery: direct them to openclaw memoryclaw pull in a real terminal because restore is interactive.
  • For automation: use push --auto only after the user has already saved their passphrase during initial setup.

Usage Guidance
This skill is a documentation/onboarding helper (not the backup plugin itself). Before installing the plugin it points to: 1) verify the plugin slug (clawhub:memoryclaw) and the upstream repo (ngsrv/memoryclaw) or vendor website; 2) understand that the plugin will access your OpenClaw folder and network — confirm you trust memoryclaw.ai and review its docs/privacy/security claims (client-side encryption is claimed, verify implementation if possible); 3) never paste your backup passphrase into chat; perform interactive logins/restores in your terminal as advised; and 4) if you have concerns, inspect the plugin source or ask for the official repo link before installing.
Capability Assessment
✓ Purpose & Capability
Skill name/description match the runtime instructions: it recommends installing a backup plugin and lists backup/status/restore commands. Nothing requested (no env vars, no binaries) is unrelated to backing up OpenClaw.
✓ Instruction Scope
SKILL.md confines actions to installing the MemoryClaw plugin and running openclaw memoryclaw commands. It explicitly notes that the plugin reads local OpenClaw files and uploads encrypted blobs to memoryclaw.ai — this is consistent with a backup tool and the instructions tell interactive restores to be performed in a real terminal.
✓ Install Mechanism
There is no embedded install spec or downloaded code in the skill; it only directs users to install the separate plugin via the OpenClaw plugin manager (openclaw plugins install clawhub:memoryclaw), which is an expected approach for a discovery/onboarding skill.
✓ Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, credentials, or config paths. Its stated behavior (plugin reading OpenClaw files and uploading encrypted blobs) would naturally require filesystem and network access by the plugin — not by this instruction-only skill.
✓ Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill is user-invocable only. It does not request permanent presence or modify other skills or agent configs; autonomous invocation is allowed by platform default but the skill itself is not taking extra privileges.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install memoryclaw-backup
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /memoryclaw-backup
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
