Frequently Asked Questions about myclaw-backup

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I securely back up OpenClaw configurations and workspace data?

You can securely back up OpenClaw configurations by automating the process to capture workspace, tokens, credentials, and agent data. This ensures safe data preservation for migrations, server provisioning, and disaster recovery across instances.

Can I restore OpenClaw backups on a remote server?

OpenClaw restore operations are localhost-restricted to enforce safety. This limitation prevents accidental overwrites on remote servers, requiring you to execute restoration commands directly on the target machine.

Do I need rsync and tar installed to migrate OpenClaw state?

Yes, migrating OpenClaw state requires node, rsync, tar, python3, and openclaw installed. These dependencies handle data compression, file synchronization, and script execution for secure backups and restorations.

What is the best way to protect tokens during an OpenClaw server migration?

The best way to protect tokens during an OpenClaw migration is using a backup tool with token preservation and dry-run support. This ensures credentials are securely transferred without accidental exposure or data loss.

Does OpenClaw backup support a dry-run before applying restore operations?

Yes, OpenClaw backup supports dry-run functionality before applying restore operations. This safety check allows you to validate the restoration process and preview changes without modifying active configuration or memory data.

How do I manage OpenClaw backups through a browser interface?

You can manage OpenClaw backups through a browser interface using the built-in HTTP server. This interface provides token-protected access to trigger secure full backups and monitor restoration workflows.
