SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires PyYAML, and includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill moves an existing OpenClaw customization footprint into Hermes Agent so users do not have to recreate memories, persona files, allowlists, skills, and workspace assets by hand.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Persona and memory migration: Imports SOUL.md, MEMORY.md, and USER.md content into Hermes-friendly destinations.
  • Config and access translation: Merges messaging settings, command approval patterns, and selected secrets when explicitly allowed.
  • Skill and asset transfer: Copies compatible OpenClaw skills and workspace assets, then records conflicts, skips, and archive items for review.

Quick Start

Ask the skill to dry-run an OpenClaw migration from your local workspace and summarize what will migrate, what will be skipped, and what needs manual review.

How are workspace asset conflicts handled during OpenClaw migration?▼

Workspace asset conflicts during OpenClaw migration are preserved, logged as skips, and recorded in a structured report for manual review rather than being overwritten automatically.

Do I need PyYAML to run the OpenClaw to Hermes migration?▼

Yes, PyYAML is required as a dependency to parse the SKILL.md entry point with YAML frontmatter and execute the Python migration helper for reading OpenClaw files.

What is the best way to back up existing Hermes targets before an OpenClaw migration?▼
