OpenClaw Checkpoint Skill

Backup and restore your OpenClaw identity, memory, and configuration across machines.

Platform: macOS and Linux only. Windows is not supported.

Overview

This skill provides disaster recovery for OpenClaw by syncing your workspace to a git repository. It preserves:

• Identity: SOUL.md, IDENTITY.md, USER.md (who you and the assistant are)
• Memory: MEMORY.md and memory/*.md files (conversation history and context)
• Cron Jobs: Scheduled tasks exported to memory/cron-jobs-backup.json (morning briefs, daily syncs, automations)
• Configuration: TOOLS.md, AGENTS.md, HEARTBEAT.md (tool setups and conventions)
• Scripts: Custom tools and automation you've built

Not synced (security): API keys (.env.*), credentials, OAuth tokens
