The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

4 rules. About 0 are common, 4 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈4

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    Run the backup script directly:

    line 20
  2. Distinctive:

    After a successful sync, always include a clickable link to the latest commit in your reply:

    line 35
  3. Distinctive:

    If no changes were detected, report "无变更，跳过" (no link needed).

    line 46
  4. Distinctive:

    If the push failed, report the error and suggest troubleshooting steps.

    line 47

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

GitClaw Backup

Full backup of /home/node/.openclaw/ to GitHub via git.

Quick Reference

  • Repo: https://github.com/blessonism/openclaw-backup.git
  • Branch: main
  • Script: /home/node/.openclaw/gitclaw/auto_backup.sh
  • Cron: daily-workspace-backup — 每天 UTC 16:00 (北京时间 0:00)
  • Exclude rules: /home/node/.openclaw/.gitignore

Manual Sync

Run the backup script directly:

bash /home/node/.openclaw/gitclaw/auto_backup.sh

Script behavior:

  • Lock-based (prevents concurrent runs)
  • Stages all changes (git add -A), respects .gitignore
  • Skips commit if no changes
  • Pushes to origin main
  • Logs to /home/node/.openclaw/gitclaw/backup.log

Post-Sync Response

After a successful sync, always include a clickable link to the latest commit in your reply:

# Get the latest commit short hash
cd /home/node/.openclaw && git log --oneline -1

Then format the response like:

✅ 同步完成 — 查看 commit

  • If no changes were detected, report "无变更，跳过" (no link needed).
  • If the push failed, report the error and suggest troubleshooting steps.

Check Status

# Last backup log
tail -5 /home/node/.openclaw/gitclaw/backup.log

# Git status (uncommitted changes)
cd /home/node/.openclaw && git status --short

# Recent commits
cd /home/node/.openclaw && git log --oneline -5

Exclude Files from Backup

Edit /home/node/.openclaw/.gitignore — standard gitignore syntax.

Current notable exclusions: workspace/images/, workspace/node_modules/, workspace/.micromamba/, workspace/bin/, large binary files.

Troubleshooting

  • "already running" in log → stale lock at /home/node/.openclaw/gitclaw/lock/, remove it: rmdir /home/node/.openclaw/gitclaw/lock
  • Push rejected → likely force-push or diverged history on remote; check with git log --oneline -5 origin/main
  • Auth failure → credentials in ~/.git-credentials; verify with git credential fill <<< "host=github.com"

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
