openclaw-teleport#

One-command agent migration: pack identity, memory, config, credentials, cron jobs, and workspace into a single .soul archive, then unpack on a new machine for full restoration.

Install#

bash

npm install -g @kagura-agent/openclaw-teleport

Or use npx without installing:

bash

npx @kagura-agent/openclaw-teleport pack

Commands#

Pack (export)#

bash

# Pack the default (first) agent
openclaw-teleport pack

# Pack a specific agent by name
openclaw-teleport pack kagura

Produces a <name>_<date>.soul file (tar.gz) containing:

• Full workspace (identity files, memory, skills, workflows, databases — excluding git repo subdirectories)
• Agent config + channel credentials from openclaw.json
• Cron job definitions
• GitHub repo list (re-cloned on unpack)

Unpack (import/restore)#

bash

# Restore to default workspace (~/.openclaw/workspace)
openclaw-teleport unpack kagura_20260320.soul

# Restore to a custom workspace
openclaw-teleport unpack kagura_20260320.soul --workspace /path/to/workspace

Unpack automatically:

1. Installs OpenClaw if missing
2. Restores workspace files
3. Writes config + credentials to openclaw.json
4. Restores cron jobs
5. Clones GitHub repos via gh
6. Starts the gateway
7. Prints a welcome summary

Inspect#

bash

openclaw-teleport inspect kagura_20260320.soul

Shows manifest metadata without unpacking: agent name, pack date, file count, repos, channels, cron jobs.

Security#

⚠️ .soul files contain plaintext credentials (API tokens, bot tokens, app secrets). Treat them like password files:

• Never commit to git or share publicly
• Transfer via encrypted channels (SSH, encrypted USB)
• Delete after unpacking
• Optionally encrypt with gpg -c agent.soul

When to Use#

• Moving to a new machine — pack on old, unpack on new
• Backup — periodic pack to save current state
• Disaster recovery — unpack from a saved .soul file
• Cloning an agent setup — share a .soul file (minus secrets) as a template
