Install and run
Setup complexity: low.
clawhub skill install s172x1s50dh0bgmm3yc9516nr586kk4b:backup- Node.js workspace detected. Install dependencies securely: run `npm ci --ignore-scripts` to prevent post-install lifecycle triggers from running arbitrary code, then selectively audit the dependency tree.
- Setup complexity is LOW. This package is likely designed for quick installation with minimal external side-effects.
- Final validation: Expose the agent to a mock request payload inside a sandbox and trace the network egress before allowing access to real customer data.
Contract: missing

Run-check
$0.02 USD1 measured facts are behind this paywall: success rate and latency, uptime and estimated cost, when not to use it, how to call it, benchmark scores.
Agents pay $0.02 in USDC. A card payment is $0.50, the smallest a card allows.

# OpenClaw Backup
Backup and restore OpenClaw configuration, credentials, and workspace.
## Create Backup
Run the backup script:
```bash
./scripts/backup.sh [backup_dir]
```
Default backup location: `~/openclaw-backups/`
Output: `openclaw-YYYY-MM-DD_HHMM.tar.gz`
## What Gets Backed Up
- `openclaw.json` — main config
- `credentials/` — API keys, tokens
- `agents/` — agent configs, auth profiles
- `workspace/` — memory, SOUL.md, user files
- `telegram/` — session data
- `cron/` — scheduled tasks
## Excluded
- `completions/` — cache, regenerated automatically
- `*.log` — logs
## Setup Daily Backup with Cron
Use OpenClaw cron for daily backups with notification:
```json
{
"name": "daily-backup",
"schedule": {"kind": "cron", "expr": "0 3 * * *", "tz": "UTC"},
"payload": {
"kind": "agentTurn",
"message": "Run ~/.openclaw/backup.sh and report result to user."
},
"sessionTarget": "isolated",
"delivery": {"mode": "announce"}
}
```
## Restore
See [references/restore.md](references/restore.md) for step-by-step restore instructions.
Quick restore:
```bash
openclaw gateway stop
mv ~/.openclaw ~/.openclaw-old
tar -xzf ~/openclaw-backups/openclaw-YYYY-MM-DD_HHMM.tar.gz -C ~
openclaw gateway start
```
## Rotation

# Restore OpenClaw from Backup ## Quick Restore ```bash # 1. Stop OpenClaw openclaw gateway stop # 2. Backup current (safety) mv ~/.openclaw ~/.openclaw-old # 3. Extract backup cd ~ tar -xzf ~/openclaw-backups/openclaw-YYYY-MM-DD_HHMM.tar.gz # 4. Start OpenClaw openclaw gateway start # 5. Verify openclaw status ``` ## Rollback if Restore Fails ```bash rm -rf ~/.openclaw mv ~/.openclaw-old ~/.openclaw openclaw gateway start ``` ## What's in a Backup ``` ~/.openclaw/ ├── openclaw.json # Main config ├── credentials/ # API keys, tokens ├── agents/ # Agent configs, auth ├── workspace/ # Memory, SOUL.md, files ├── telegram/ # Telegram session └── cron/ # Scheduled tasks ``` ## Excluded from Backup - `completions/` — API response cache (regenerated) - `*.log` — Log files

## Description: Backup and restore OpenClaw data. Use when user asks to create backups, set up automatic backup schedules, restore from backup, or manage backup rotation. Handles ~/.openclaw directory archiving with proper exclusions. This skill is ready for commercial/non-commercial use. ## Publisher: [paudyyin](https://clawhub.ai/user/paudyyin) ### License/Terms of Use: MIT-0 ## Use Case: Developers and OpenClaw users use this skill to create, rotate, schedule, and restore archives of local OpenClaw configuration, credentials, sessions, workspace data, and scheduled tasks. ### Deployment Geography for Use: Global ## Known Risks and Mitigations: Risk: Backups may contain credentials, tokens, sessions, private workspace files, and scheduled tasks from ~/.openclaw. Mitigation: Store backups in an owner-only directory, encrypt archives, and avoid shared or synced locations unless separately protected. Risk: Restore instructions replace the active ~/.openclaw directory and include destructive rollback commands. Mitigation: Verify the selected archive before restoring, keep the temporary ~/.openclaw-old copy until validation succeeds, and review commands before execution. ## Reference(s): - [Restore OpenClaw from Backup](references/restore.md) ## Skill Output: **Output Type(s):** [text, markdown, code, shell commands, configuration, guidance] **Output Format:** [Markdown with inline shell commands and JSON configuration examples] **Output Parameters:** [1D] **Other Properties Related to Output:** [May create compressed backup archives in a user-selected backup directory when the shell script is executed.] ## Skill Version(s): 1.1.0 (source: server release metadata; artifact package metadata reports 1.0.0) ## Ethical Considerations: Users should evaluate whether this skill is appropriate for their environment, review any generated or modified files before relying on them, and apply their organization's safety, security, and compliance requirements before deployment.
