# backup-manager Skill Manage local and cloud backups — list status, create backups, restore, monitor health. ## Installation This skill is automatically available in OpenClaw. The backup-manager CLI is located at: ``` ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/backup-manager/backup-manager ``` ## Commands ### List Backups ```bash backup-manager list ``` Lists all backups including Time Machine, configured backups, and rsync snapshots. ### Create Backup ```bash backup-manager create ``` Creates a new backup from source to destination. **Examples:** ```bash # Backup home directory backup-manager create home /Users/pp /Volumes/Backup/home # Backup documents backup-manager create documents ~/Documents /Volumes/Backup/docs # Backup to network location backup-manager create server ~/Documents /mnt/server/backup ``` ### Check Status ```bash backup-manager status ``` Shows backup status including: - Time Machine status - Last backup times - Disk space availability - Configured backup destinations ### Restore from Backup ```bash backup-manager restore ``` Restores files from a backup location to a destination. **Examples:** ```bash backup-manager restore /Volumes/Backup/home /Users/pp ``` ### Schedule Backups ```bash # List scheduled backups backup-manager schedule list # Add a schedule (cron expression) backup-manager schedule add "" # Remove a schedule backup-manager schedule remove ``` **Cron Examples:** ```bash # Daily at 2 AM backup-manager schedule add daily-home '0 2 * * *' # Weekly on Sundays at 3 AM backup-manager schedule add weekly-docs '0 3 * * 0' # Every 6 hours backup-manager schedule add frequent '0 */6 * * *' ``` ### Cloud Backup (rclone) ```bash # Check cloud status backup-manager cloud status # Sync to cloud backup-manager cloud sync

``` **Rclone Examples:** ```bash # Configure a remote (run once) rclone config # Sync local folder to Google Drive backup-manager cloud sync mydrive /Users/pp/Backup # Sync to S3 backup-manager cloud sync s3-backup /Users/pp/Backup ``` ## Configuration The configuration file is stored at: ``` ~/.config/openclaw/backups.json ``` **Structure:** ```json { "backups": [ { "name": "home", "source": "/Users/pp", "destination": "/Volumes/Backup/home", "last_run": "2024-01-15T02:00:00-08:00" } ], "schedules": [ { "name": "schedule-1", "backup_name": "home", "cron": "0 2 * * *" } ], "cloud": { "rclone": { "enabled": false, "remote": "" } } } ``` ## Requirements The skill uses these macOS/Unix tools (installed by default on macOS): - **rsync** - File synchronization - **tmutil** - Time Machine (macOS) - **diskutil** - Disk management (macOS) - **jq** - JSON parsing - **rclone** - Cloud sync (optional, install via `brew install rclone`) If a tool is missing, the skill handles it gracefully and provides warnings. ## Features 1. **Time Machine Integration** - Detects and manages Time Machine backups 2. **Rsync Backups** - Efficient incremental backups using rsync 3. **Cron Scheduling** - Schedule recurring backups via cron 4. **Cloud Support** - rclone integration for cloud backups (S3, GDrive, etc.) 5. **Config Management** - JSON-based configuration with backup history ## Notes - Backups are incremental by default (rsync -a) - The skill prompts for confirmation before restoring - Use absolute paths for reliability - Ensure backup destinations have sufficient disk space
