Migrator

What this skill does

The documentation describes packaging configuration, memory, skills, and dependency metadata into an encrypted archive for restoration on another machine. Archives contain sensitive data such as auth tokens; the card notes restore may write files before complete archive verification, so validate trusted archives in a controlled destination and retain recoverable backups.

# OpenClaw Migrator

A utility to package an Agent's state into a portable, encrypted archive (`.oca`) for migration.

## Features

- **Encrypted Archive**: Uses AES-256-GCM + auth tag for confidentiality and integrity.
- **Path Normalization**: Restores workspace path using `manifest.json` metadata.
- **Dependency Manifest**: Captures system dependencies (Brewfile) to ensure the new environment matches.

## Usage

### Export (On Old Machine)

```bash
migrator export --out my-agent.oca --password "secret"
```

### Import (On New Machine)

```bash
migrator import --in my-agent.oca --password "secret"
```

## Security

This skill handles sensitive data (`openclaw.json`, `auth.token`). 
The export process **always** requires a password to encrypt the archive.
Unencrypted exports are **disabled** by design.
