Migrate Openclaw — Development skill for Claude Code

A Claude Code skill that migrates your entire OpenClaw workspace into a fully functional Claude Code project.

---

If you've been running OpenClaw and want to switch to Claude Code, this skill handles the full migration. It scans your OpenClaw directory, shows you a preview of what will happen, and executes on your confirmation.

What it does

• Converts your agents into Claude Code skills - each agent's personality (SOUL.md) becomes an invokable skill
• Preserves your knowledge base - USER.md, SOUL.md, IDENTITY.md, memory files all migrate to a clean KNOWLEDGE BASE/ directory
• Cleans your operating rules - strips OpenClaw-specific stuff (heartbeat, gateway commands, channel routing) while keeping your universal rules
• Migrates your custom skills - OpenClaw skills convert directly to Claude Code skills (same markdown format, just strips OpenClaw metadata)
• Generates a lean CLAUDE.md - references your knowledge base files without inlining everything
• Archives infrastructure files - gateway config, credentials, session logs, etc. go to _openclaw_archive/ so nothing is lost

Installation

Add this skill to your Claude Code project:

# Clone into your .claude/skills/ directory
git clone https://github.com/Kevjade/migrate-openclaw.git .claude/skills/migrate-openclaw

Or manually copy `SKILL.md` into `.claude/skills/migrate-openclaw/SKILL.md` in your project.

Usage

Once installed, just tell Claude:

migrate openclaw

Or any of these:

• "openclaw to claude code"
• "convert openclaw"
• "import openclaw"
• "switch from openclaw"

The skill supports three input methods:

1. Copy your OpenClaw workspace into your Claude Code project and run the skill
2. Point to your local ~/.openclaw/ directory - the skill auto-detects it
3. Provide a GitHub repo URL -
