OpenClaw Theme Patcher

Add a new OpenClaw Control UI theme directly into the installed frontend bundle.

This skill also covers theme migration across OpenClaw upgrades. When a user already has a custom theme on an older installed bundle and wants to keep it after updating OpenClaw, preserve the old theme first, then migrate it into the new bundle using structural comparison rather than heuristic string injection.

Scope

Use this skill for installed bundle patching, not upstream source development.

Default rule: add a new theme from the user's requested palette. Do not overwrite built-in themes unless the user explicitly asks.

For migrations, use a stricter rule set:

• preserve the user's old custom theme first
• treat the old and new bundles as potentially different structures
• never assume previous patch points still exist after an upgrade
• prefer restoring the UI to a known-good stock state over leaving a half-migrated broken theme live
