Liquefy Openclaw

Liquefy OpenClaw

Use this skill when the user wants to:

• scan or pack an OpenClaw workspace with Liquefy
• understand why Liquefy denied a path
• search or restore from an existing Liquefy vault
• run OpenClaw with rollback, context budgeting, replay blocking, or restore-on-failure
• install or inspect native Liquefy integration inside OpenClaw
• vault OpenClaw session/state directories
• protect OpenClaw state or pulled history before risky actions

Start Here

Default to the local Liquefy CLI:

• liquefy openclaw --json
• liquefy openclaw run --json
• liquefy search
• liquefy restore
• liquefy safe-run --json
• liquefy context-gate compile --json
• liquefy context-gate history --json
• python tools/openclaw_tracevault.py
• python tools/liquefy_openclaw_plugin.py hook install|uninstall|status
• liquefy state-guard ...
• liquefy history-guard ...

Optional packaged plugin path:

• if the user already has the OpenClaw plugin installed, liquefy_scan and liquefy_pack_apply are available
• do not assume those plugin tools exist in a standalone skill install

Preflight

Before using repo-relative tools or plugin commands:

• verify liquefy is installed and callable
• verify repo-relative tools/ paths exist before using python tools/...
• verify optional plugin tools exist before using them
• verify LIQUEFY_SECRET is set before any secure pack/apply flow
• prefer --json for commands that support it when machine-readable results matter

If a required command, repo path, or dependency is missing:

• stop and explain the missing dependency
• do not guess alternate commands
• do not pretend plugin or repo-only surfaces are available

Compatibility note:

• this standalone skill is aligned to the Liquefy OpenClaw command surface currently shipped in this repo
• check liquefy version --json and liquefy openclaw --version --json before relying on newer flags
• if the optional OpenClaw plugin is used, it expects Liquefy OpenClaw CLI >= 1.1.0

Hard Rules

1. Prefer read-only scan before any write/apply action.
2. Do not ask for --include-secrets or risky allow-category overrides unless the user explicitly wants denied paths included.
3. If the user asks for protection on the next OpenClaw run, do not use raw openclaw run; prefer liquefy openclaw run or liquefy safe-run.
4. If context-gate reports blocked=true, stop and explain block_reason instead of trying to route around it.
5. If secure pack/apply is requested, ensure LIQUEFY_SECRET exists before enabling --secure.
6. Do not pretend the standalone skill install also installed the plugin package. Treat plugin tools as optional.
7. Do not run pack, apply, restore, hook install/uninstall, or other write-affecting operations unless the user explicitly requested that action after review.

Quick Routing

• Workspace audit or pack:

use liquefy openclaw by default; only use plugin tools if the user already has the plugin enabled.

• Policy denial or override question:

use liquefy openclaw --explain ... and report the matched category/reason.

• Next run must be protected:

use liquefy openclaw run or liquefy safe-run, not raw OpenClaw.

• User wants automatic OpenClaw archival:

use native hook install/status/uninstall via liquefy_openclaw_plugin.py.

• User wants specific agent session vaulting:

use openclaw_tracevault.py.

• User needs restore/search on an existing vault:

use liquefy search / liquefy restore.

• User wants filesystem/state protection outside packing:

use state-guard or history-guard.

Example Intents

• "Scan my OpenClaw workspace and tell me what Liquefy would pack."
• "Why did Liquefy deny credentials/api.pem?"
• "Run OpenClaw with replay blocking and rollback."
• "Show the context gate history for this workspace."
• "Pack this workspace with ratio profile after review."
• "Install Liquefy hooks into OpenClaw and show status."
• "Restore this OpenClaw vault and search it for a trace id."
• "Protect wallet-state.json before the next run."
