Clawdbot Sync 🔄

Synchronize memory, preferences, and skills between multiple Clawdbot instances over Tailscale/SSH.

Features

  • Bi-directional sync between Clawdbot instances
  • Smart conflict resolution (newest wins, or merge for logs)
  • Selective sync — choose what to sync
  • Peer discovery via Tailscale
  • Dry-run mode for preview

Commands

CommandAction
/syncShow status and configured peers
/sync statusCheck connection to all peers
/sync now [peer]Sync with peer (or all)
/sync push [peer]Push local changes to peer
/sync pull [peer]Pull changes from peer
/sync add <name> <host> [user] [path]Add a peer
/sync remove <name>Remove a peer
/sync diff [peer]Show what would change
/sync historyShow sync history

Setup

1. Configure Peers

handler.sh add mac-mini 100.95.193.55 clawdbot /Users/clawdbot/clawd $WORKSPACE
handler.sh add server 100.89.48.26 clawdbot /home/clawdbot/clawd $WORKSPACE

2. Ensure SSH Access

Both machines need SSH key auth:

ssh-copy-id clawdbot@100.95.193.55

3. Test Connection

handler.sh status $WORKSPACE

Handler Commands

handler.sh status $WORKSPACE                    # Check peers and connection
handler.sh sync <peer> $WORKSPACE               # Bi-directional sync
handler.sh push <peer> $WORKSPACE               # Push to peer
handler.sh pull <peer> $WORKSPACE               # Pull from peer
handler.sh diff <peer> $WORKSPACE               # Show differences
handler.sh add <name> <host> <user> <path> $WS  # Add peer
handler.sh remove <name> $WORKSPACE             # Remove peer
handler.sh history $WORKSPACE                   # Sync history
handler.sh auto <on|off> $WORKSPACE             # Auto-sync on heartbeat

Conflict Resolution

  1. Timestamp-based: Newer file wins
  2. Merge for logs: Append-only files are merged
  3. Skip conflicts: Option to skip conflicting files
  4. Manual resolution: Flag for review

  • ssh (for secure transport)
  • Tailscale or direct network access between peers
  • SSH key authentication configured

Security

  • Uses SSH for all transfers (encrypted)
  • No passwords stored (key-based auth only)
  • Sync paths are restricted to workspace
  • No system files are ever synced
