Agent Importers

`hermes import-agent`: import an OpenClaw (~/.openclaw, or legacy ~/.clawdbot / ~/.moltbot), Claude Code (~/.claude), Codex CLI (~/.codex) or Cursor (~/.cursor) setup into Hermes in one command; always previews first and asks before applying. Claude Code / Codex / Cursor: instructions, Cursor rules and memories become memory entries, Bash permission rules become command allow/deny lists, MCP servers land in config.yaml, skills are copied, and `--sync` re-imports sources that changed. OpenClaw (core's former `hermes claw migrate`; the plugin keeps that spelling, `hermes claw cleanup` and the openclaw-migration skill): persona, memories, skills, model and messaging settings, MCP servers and agent behaviour. Formerly built into Hermes core; `hermes setup` offers to install it when it finds one of these agents, and profiles with a registered sync source are migrated automatically.

Good to know before installing

No Python dependencies, no network calls and no model calls. Claude Code / Codex / Cursor: reads those agents' local config trees (never their credential files; secret-looking MCP env vars and headers are stripped and listed) and writes only into the active profile (memories/MEMORY.md with a backup, config.yaml, skills/ and import-sync.json). OpenClaw: reads the OpenClaw dir (openclaw.json, its .env, workspace files such as SOUL.md / MEMORY.md / USER.md, skills); API keys and bot tokens come over only with --migrate-secrets (allowlisted names, shown in the preview). It writes into the active profile (config.yaml, .env, SOUL.md, memories/, skills/openclaw-imports/, a migration/openclaw/<time>/ report with item backups, and a backups/pre-migration-*.zip restore point), plus a workspace dir only when --workspace-target names one. It runs local pgrep / systemctl / tasklist checks to warn when OpenClaw or a Hermes gateway is still running, and `hermes claw cleanup` renames the OpenClaw dir to *.pre-migration after a confirmation.

How to install

  1. Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs, then asks whether to turn it on.
    hermes plugins install agent-importers
  2. Said no? Turn it on later:
    hermes plugins enable agent-importers
  3. Restart Hermes so it loads the plugin.

Some plugins also need a sign-in or settings: see Full setup & settings. Memory plugins ask whether to become your memory provider instead. Steps follow the official plugins guide (opens in a new tab).
