DD myclaw-backup

Backup and restore all OpenClaw configuration, agent memory, skills, and workspace data. Part of the MyClaw.ai (https://myclaw.ai) open skills ecosystem — the AI personal assistant platform that gives every user a full server with complete code control. Use when the user wants to create a snapshot of their OpenClaw instance, schedule periodic backups, restore from a backup, migrate to a new server, download a backup file locally, upload a backup file from another machine, or protect against data loss. Includes a built-in HTTP server for browser-based download/upload/restore without needing cloud storage. TRUST BOUNDARY: This skill archives and restores highly sensitive data including bot tokens, API keys, and channel credentials. Only install if you trust the operator. Always use --dry-run before restore. Never start the HTTP server without a --token.

What is at stake

The skill contains fragments that, in the wrong hands, cost money or data. Below: what the installer risks and what the author should do.

Dangerous commands
If you install

The skill contains commands that delete files, rewrite disks or execute code fetched from the network. The agent may run them without asking if it believes the instructions require it.

For the author

Replace destructive commands with safe equivalents that ask for confirmation, scope them to one folder, and stop piping curl into a shell: pin a version and a checksum.

How to improve

  1. Address the high-severity findings: each costs 18 safety points. If one is a false positive, add the rule id to guard.allow in spec.yaml.
For the model run — optional
  • Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
  • A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

Against the Agent Skills spec

✓ No remarks against the Agent Skills spec

Process rating: all ten parameters 49/100

  • 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
  • 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
  • 0Failures and branches. Linear process with no failure handling
  • 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
  • 30Running it twice. 8 mutating operations with no state check
  • 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash, python, node) that frontmatter does not declare
  • 70When it triggers. States when to use, but not when not to
  • 100Steps. 14 steps
  • 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
  • 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 1420 tokens
  • medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing

Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
