SOUL Backup Skill

Backup and restore OpenClaw workspace SOUL files with versioning, validation, and sanitized openclaw.json handling.

This skill mostly matches its description (local backup/restore of SOUL files), but before installing or running it: 1) Ensure Node.js is installed and available as `node` (the registry metadata omitted this requirement). 2) Inspect the scripts (scripts/*.mjs) yourself to verify there are no unexpected network calls or logging of secrets — the SKILL.md says openclaw.json is sanitized, but you should confirm the sanitize routine only redacts and does not transmit or persist sensitive values in logs. 3) Run the scripts from a test workspace first (or with dry-run flags) to confirm behavior and that paths conform to your environment. 4) Do not run as root and avoid committing backups to public repositories — keep backups stored off-machine if you need protection against machine loss. 5) Because the package contains executable scripts but no install step, you are responsible for placing them in the correct workspace path; verify .gitignore excludes backups/ and consider encrypting/moving sensitive backups to an off-machine location. If you want higher assurance, ask the publisher for an explicit statement of Node versions supported, and request a short audit of the sanitize/restore code paths to confirm no exfiltration or unexpected network activity.

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: soul-backup-skill Version: 1.2.1 The soul-backup-skill is a well-documented utility designed to manage backups of OpenClaw workspace configuration files. It includes scripts for creating, listing, restoring, and validating backups using SHA-256 hashes for integrity. Notably, it implements a security-conscious sanitization feature in `scripts/backup.mjs` that redacts sensitive fields (e.g., tokens, keys, passwords) from `openclaw.json` before storage. The code uses only Node.js built-in modules, contains no network activity or obfuscation, and includes safety features like automatic pre-restore backups in `scripts/restore.mjs` to prevent data loss.
