# Claw Roam - OpenClaw Workspace Sync

Sync your OpenClaw workspace across machines via Git. This allows you to:
- Work on local Mac as primary, seamlessly switch to VPS when traveling
- Maintain continuous memory and personality across different machines
- Backup your OpenClaw state to remote Git repository

## Quick Start

Recommended branch model for multi-device:
- `main` = shared baseline
- `remote` = this server
- `local` = your laptop/desktop

```bash
# Check status (current branch)
claw-roam status

# One-command full sync (recommended)
claw-roam sync

# Or step by step:
# Commit+push current branch
claw-roam push "msg"

# Pull latest for current branch
claw-roam pull

# (Optional) merge another device branch into current branch
claw-roam merge-from local
claw-roam merge-from remote
```

## Commands

### push
Commit and push workspace to remote Git repository.

```bash
claw-roam push [message]
```

- If no message provided, uses timestamp as default
- Automatically adds all changes (git add -A)
- Skips push if no changes detected

### pull
Pull latest workspace from remote and sync.

```bash
claw-roam pull
```

- Fetches latest changes from remote
- Applies changes to current workspace
- Stops and restarts OpenClaw gateway to apply changes (VPS mode)

### status
Check sync status between local and remote.

```bash

```

- Shows current branch and commit
