# OpenClaw -> Hermes Migration
|
||||
|
||||
Use this skill when a user wants to move their OpenClaw setup into Hermes Agent with minimal manual cleanup.
|
||||
|
||||
## What this skill does
|
||||
|
||||
It uses `scripts/openclaw_to_hermes.py` to:
|
||||
|
||||
- import `SOUL.md` into the Hermes home directory as `SOUL.md`
|
||||
- transform OpenClaw `MEMORY.md` and `USER.md` into Hermes memory entries
|
||||
- merge OpenClaw command approval patterns into Hermes `command_allowlist`
|
||||
- migrate Hermes-compatible messaging settings such as `TELEGRAM_ALLOWED_USERS` and `MESSAGING_CWD`
|
||||
- copy OpenClaw skills into `~/.hermes/skills/openclaw-imports/`
|
||||
- optionally copy the OpenClaw workspace instructions file into a chosen Hermes workspace
|
||||
- mirror compatible workspace assets such as `workspace/tts/` into `~/.hermes/tts/`
|
||||
- archive non-secret docs that do not have a direct Hermes destination
|
||||
- produce a structured report listing migrated items, conflicts, skipped items, and reasons
|
||||
|
||||
## Path resolution
|
||||
|
||||
The helper script lives in this skill directory at:
|
||||
|
||||
- `scripts/openclaw_to_hermes.py`
|
||||
|
||||
When this skill is installed from the Skills Hub, the normal location is:
|
||||
|
||||
- `~/.hermes/skills/migration/openclaw-migration/scripts/openclaw_to_hermes.py`
|
||||
|
||||
Do not guess a shorter path like `~/.hermes/skills/openclaw-migration/...`.
|
||||
|
||||
Before running the helper:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Prefer the installed path under `~/.hermes/skills/migration/openclaw-migration/`.
|
||||
2. If that path fails, inspect the installed skill directory and resolve the script relative to the installed `SKILL.md`.
|
||||
3. Only use `find` as a fallback if the installed location is missing or the skill was moved manually.
|
||||
4. When calling the terminal tool, do not pass `workdir: "~"`. Use an absolute directory such as the user's home directory, or omit `workdir` entirely.
|
||||
|
||||
With `--migrate-secrets`, it will also import a small allowlisted set of Hermes-compatible secrets, currently:
|
||||
|
||||
- `TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN`
|
||||
|
||||
## Default workflow
|
||||
|
||||
1. Inspect first with a dry run.
|
||||
2. Present a simple summary of what can be migrated, what cannot be migrated, and what would be archived.
|
||||
3. If the `clarify` tool is available, use it for user decisions instead of asking for a free-form prose reply.
|
||||
4. If the dry run finds imported skill directory conflicts, ask how those should be handled before executing.
|
||||
5. Ask the user to choose between the two supported migration modes before executing.
|
||||
6. Ask for a target workspace path only if the user wants the workspace instructions file brought over.
|
||||
7. Execute the migration with the matching preset and flags.
|
||||
8. Summarize the results, especially:
|
||||
- what was migrated
|
||||
- what was archived for manual review
|
||||
- what was skipped and why
|
||||
|
||||
## User interaction protocol
|
||||
|
||||
Hermes CLI supports the `clarify` tool for interactive prompts, but it is limited to:
|
||||
|
||||
- one choice at a time
|
||||
- up to 4 predefined choices
|
||||
- an automatic `Other` free-text option
|
||||
|
||||
It does **not** support true multi-select checkboxes in a single prompt.
|
||||
|
||||
For every `clarify` call:
|
||||
|
||||
- always include a non-empty `question`
|
||||
- include `choices` only for real selectable prompts
|
||||
- keep `choices` to 2-4 plain string options
|
||||
- never emit placeholder or truncated options such as `...`
|
||||
- never pad or stylize choices with extra whitespace
|
||||
- never include fake form fields in the question such as `enter directory here`, blank lines to fill in, or underscores like `_____`
|
||||
- for open-ended path questions, ask only the plain sentence; the user types in the normal CLI prompt below the panel
|
||||
|
||||
If a `clarify` call returns an error, inspect the error text, correct the payload, and retry once with a valid `question` and clean choices.
|
||||
|
||||
When `clarify` is available and the dry run reveals any required user decision, your **next action must be a `clarify` tool call**.
|
||||
Do not end the turn with a normal assistant message such as:
|
||||
|
||||
- "Let me present the choices"
|
||||
- "What would you like to do?"
|
||||
- "Here are the options"
|
||||
|
||||
If a user decision is required, collect it via `clarify` before producing more prose.
|
||||
If multiple unresolved decisions remain, do not insert an explanatory assistant message between them. After one `clarify` response is received, your next action should usually be the next required `clarify` call.
|
||||
|
||||
Treat `workspace-agents` as an unresolved decision whenever the dry run reports:
|
||||
|
||||
- `kind="workspace-agents"`
|
||||
- `status="skipped"`
|
||||
- reason containing `No workspace target was provided`
|
||||
|
||||
In that case, you must ask about workspace instructions before execution. Do not silently treat that as a decision to skip.
|
||||
|
||||
Because of that limitation, use this simplified decision flow:
|
||||
|
||||
1. For `SOUL.md` conflicts, use `clarify` with choices such as:
|
||||
- `keep existing`
|
||||
- `overwrite with backup`
|
||||
- `review first`
|
||||
2. If the dry run shows one or more `kind="skill"` items with `status="conflict"`, use `clarify` with choices such as:
|
||||
- `keep existing skills`
|
||||
- `overwrite conflicting skills with backup`
|
||||
- `import conflicting skills under renamed folders`
|
||||
3. For workspace instructions, use `clarify` with choices such as:
|
||||
- `skip workspace instructions`
|
||||
- `copy to a workspace path`
|
||||
- `decide later`
|
||||
4. If the user chooses to copy workspace instructions, ask a follow-up open-ended `clarify` question requesting an **absolute path**.
|
||||
5. If the user chooses `skip workspace instructions` or `decide later`, proceed without `--workspace-target`.
|
||||
5. For migration mode, use `clarify` with these 3 choices:
|
||||
- `user-data only`
|
||||
- `full compatible migration`
|
||||
- `cancel`
|
||||
6. `user-data only` means: migrate user data and compatible config, but do **not** import allowlisted secrets.
|
||||
7. `full compatible migration` means: migrate the same compatible user data plus the allowlisted secrets when present.
|
||||
8. If `clarify` is not available, ask the same question in normal text, but still constrain the answer to `user-data only`, `full compatible migration`, or `cancel`.
|
||||
|
||||
Execution gate:
|
||||
|
||||
- Do not execute while a `workspace-agents` skip caused by `No workspace target was provided` remains unresolved.
|
||||
- The only valid ways to resolve it are:
|
||||
- user explicitly chooses `skip workspace instructions`
|
||||
- user explicitly chooses `decide later`
|
||||
- user provides a workspace path after choosing `copy to a workspace path`
|
||||
- Absence of a workspace target in the dry run is not itself permission to execute.
|
||||
- Do not execute while any required `clarify` decision remains unresolved.
|
||||
|
||||
Use these exact `clarify` payload shapes as the default pattern:
|
||||
|
||||
- `{"question":"Your existing SOUL.md conflicts with the imported one. What should I do?","choices":["keep existing","overwrite with backup","review first"]}`
|
||||
- `{"question":"One or more imported OpenClaw skills already exist in Hermes. How should I handle those skill conflicts?","choices":["keep existing skills","overwrite conflicting skills with backup","import conflicting skills under renamed folders"]}`
|
||||
- `{"question":"Choose migration mode: migrate only user data, or run the full compatible migration including allowlisted secrets?","choices":["user-data only","full compatible migration","cancel"]}`
|
||||
- `{"question":"Do you want to copy the OpenClaw workspace instructions file into a Hermes workspace?","choices":["skip workspace instructions","copy to a workspace path","decide later"]}`
|
||||
- `{"question":"Please provide an absolute path where the workspace instructions should be copied."}`
|
||||
|
||||
## Decision-to-command mapping
|
||||
|
||||
Map user decisions to command flags exactly:
|
||||
|
||||
- If the user chooses `keep existing` for `SOUL.md`, do **not** add `--overwrite`.
|
||||
- If the user chooses `overwrite with backup`, add `--overwrite`.
|
||||
- If the user chooses `review first`, stop before execution and review the relevant files.
|
||||
- If the user chooses `keep existing skills`, add `--skill-conflict skip`.
|
||||
- If the user chooses `overwrite conflicting skills with backup`, add `--skill-conflict overwrite`.
|
||||
- If the user chooses `import conflicting skills under renamed folders`, add `--skill-conflict rename`.
|
||||
- If the user chooses `user-data only`, execute with `--preset user-data` and do **not** add `--migrate-secrets`.
|
||||
- If the user chooses `full compatible migration`, execute with `--preset full --migrate-secrets`.
|
||||
- Only add `--workspace-target` if the user explicitly provided an absolute workspace path.
|
||||
- If the user chooses `skip workspace instructions` or `decide later`, do not add `--workspace-target`.
|
||||
|
||||
Before executing, restate the exact command plan in plain language and make sure it matches the user's choices.
|
||||
|
||||
## Post-run reporting rules
|
||||
|
||||
After execution, treat the script's JSON output as the source of truth.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Base all counts on `report.summary`.
|
||||
2. Only list an item under "Successfully Migrated" if its `status` is exactly `migrated`.
|
||||
3. Do not claim a conflict was resolved unless the report shows that item as `migrated`.
|
||||
4. Do not say `SOUL.md` was overwritten unless the report item for `kind="soul"` has `status="migrated"`.
|
||||
5. If `report.summary.conflict > 0`, include a conflict section instead of silently implying success.
|
||||
6. If counts and listed items disagree, fix the list to match the report before responding.
|
||||
7. Include the `output_dir` path from the report when available so the user can inspect `report.json`, `summary.md`, backups, and archived files.
|
||||
8. For memory or user-profile overflow, do not say the entries were archived unless the report explicitly shows an archive path. If `details.overflow_file` exists, say the full overflow list was exported there.
|
||||
9. If a skill was imported under a renamed folder, report the final destination and mention `details.renamed_from`.
|
||||
10. If `report.skill_conflict_mode` is present, use it as the source of truth for the selected imported-skill conflict policy.
|
||||
11. If an item has `status="skipped"`, do not describe it as overwritten, backed up, migrated, or resolved.
|
||||
12. If `kind="soul"` has `status="skipped"` with reason `Target already matches source`, say it was left unchanged and do not mention a backup.
|
||||
13. If a renamed imported skill has an empty `details.backup`, do not imply the existing Hermes skill was renamed or backed up. Say only that the imported copy was placed in the new destination and reference `details.renamed_from` as the pre-existing folder that remained in place.
|
||||
|
||||
## Migration presets
|
||||
|
||||
Prefer these two presets in normal use:
|
||||
|
||||
- `user-data`
|
||||
- `full`
|
||||
|
||||
`user-data` includes:
|
||||
|
||||
- `soul`
|
||||
- `workspace-agents`
|
||||
- `memory`
|
||||
- `user-profile`
|
||||
- `messaging-settings`
|
||||
- `command-allowlist`
|
||||
- `skills`
|
||||
- `tts-assets`
|
||||
- `archive`
|
||||
|
||||
`full` includes everything in `user-data` plus:
|
||||
|
||||
- `secret-settings`
|
||||
|
||||
The helper script still supports category-level `--include` / `--exclude`, but treat that as an advanced fallback rather than the default UX.
|
||||
|
||||
## Commands
|
||||
|
||||
Dry run with full discovery:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 ~/.hermes/skills/migration/openclaw-migration/scripts/openclaw_to_hermes.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
When using the terminal tool, prefer an absolute invocation pattern such as:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{"command":"python3 /home/USER/.hermes/skills/migration/openclaw-migration/scripts/openclaw_to_hermes.py","workdir":"/home/USER"}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Dry run with the user-data preset:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 ~/.hermes/skills/migration/openclaw-migration/scripts/openclaw_to_hermes.py --preset user-data
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Execute a user-data migration:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 ~/.hermes/skills/migration/openclaw-migration/scripts/openclaw_to_hermes.py --execute --preset user-data --skill-conflict skip
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Execute a full compatible migration:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 ~/.hermes/skills/migration/openclaw-migration/scripts/openclaw_to_hermes.py --execute --preset full --migrate-secrets --skill-conflict skip
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Execute with workspace instructions included:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 ~/.hermes/skills/migration/openclaw-migration/scripts/openclaw_to_hermes.py --execute --preset user-data --skill-conflict rename --workspace-target "/absolute/workspace/path"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Do not use `$PWD` or the home directory as the workspace target by default. Ask for an explicit workspace path first.
|
||||
|
||||
## Important rules
|
||||
|
||||
1. Run a dry run before writing unless the user explicitly says to proceed immediately.
|
||||
2. Do not migrate secrets by default. Tokens, auth blobs, device credentials, and raw gateway config should stay out of Hermes unless the user explicitly asks for secret migration.
|
||||
3. Do not silently overwrite non-empty Hermes targets unless the user explicitly wants that. The helper script will preserve backups when overwriting is enabled.
|
||||
4. Always give the user the skipped-items report. That report is part of the migration, not an optional extra.
|
||||
5. Prefer the primary OpenClaw workspace (`~/.openclaw/workspace/`) over `workspace.default/`. Only use the default workspace as fallback when the primary files are missing.
|
||||
6. Even in secret-migration mode, only migrate secrets with a clean Hermes destination. Unsupported auth blobs must still be reported as skipped.
|
||||
7. If the dry run shows a large asset copy, a conflicting `SOUL.md`, or overflowed memory entries, call those out separately before execution.
|
||||
8. Default to `user-data only` if the user is unsure.
|
||||
9. Only include `workspace-agents` when the user has explicitly provided a destination workspace path.
|
||||
10. Treat category-level `--include` / `--exclude` as an advanced escape hatch, not the normal flow.
|
||||
11. Do not end the dry-run summary with a vague “What would you like to do?” if `clarify` is available. Use structured follow-up prompts instead.
|
||||
12. Do not use an open-ended `clarify` prompt when a real choice prompt would work. Prefer selectable choices first, then free text only for absolute paths or file review requests.
|
||||
13. After a dry run, never stop after summarizing if there is still an unresolved decision. Use `clarify` immediately for the highest-priority blocking decision.
|
||||
14. Priority order for follow-up questions:
|
||||
- `SOUL.md` conflict
|
||||
- imported skill conflicts
|
||||
- migration mode
|
||||
- workspace instructions destination
|
||||
15. Do not promise to present choices later in the same message. Present them by actually calling `clarify`.
|
||||
16. After the migration-mode answer, explicitly check whether `workspace-agents` is still unresolved. If it is, your next action must be the workspace-instructions `clarify` call.
|
||||
17. After any `clarify` answer, if another required decision remains, do not narrate what was just decided. Ask the next required question immediately.
|
||||
|
||||
## Expected result
|
||||
|
||||
After a successful run, the user should have:
|
||||
|
||||
- Hermes persona state imported
|
||||
- Hermes memory files populated with converted OpenClaw knowledge
|
||||
- OpenClaw skills available under `~/.hermes/skills/openclaw-imports/`
|
||||
- a migration report showing any conflicts, omissions, or unsupported data
|
||||
File diff suppressed because it is too large
