# Send Cron Backup to your agent Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually. ## Fast path - Download the package from Yavira. - Extract it into a folder your agent can access. - Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder. ## Suggested prompts ### New install ```text I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete. ``` ### Upgrade existing ```text I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run. ``` ## Machine-readable fields ```json { "schemaVersion": "1.0", "item": { "slug": "cron-backup", "name": "Cron Backup", "source": "tencent", "type": "skill", "category": "开发工具", "sourceUrl": "https://clawhub.ai/zfanmy/cron-backup", "canonicalUrl": "https://clawhub.ai/zfanmy/cron-backup", "targetPlatform": "OpenClaw" }, "install": { "downloadUrl": "/downloads/cron-backup", "sourceDownloadUrl": "https://wry-manatee-359.convex.site/api/v1/download?slug=cron-backup", "sourcePlatform": "tencent", "targetPlatform": "OpenClaw", "packageFormat": "ZIP package", "primaryDoc": "SKILL.md", "includedAssets": [ "SKILL.md", "scripts/backup-versioned.sh", "scripts/backup.sh", "scripts/cleanup.sh", "scripts/list-backups.sh", "scripts/setup-cron.sh" ], "downloadMode": "redirect", "sourceHealth": { "source": "tencent", "status": "healthy", "reason": "direct_download_ok", "recommendedAction": "download", "checkedAt": "2026-04-30T16:55:25.780Z", "expiresAt": "2026-05-07T16:55:25.780Z", "httpStatus": 200, "finalUrl": "https://wry-manatee-359.convex.site/api/v1/download?slug=network", "contentType": "application/zip", "probeMethod": "head", "details": { "probeUrl": "https://wry-manatee-359.convex.site/api/v1/download?slug=network", "contentDisposition": "attachment; filename=\"network-1.0.0.zip\"", "redirectLocation": null, "bodySnippet": null }, "scope": "source", "summary": "Source download looks usable.", "detail": "Yavira can redirect you to the upstream package for this source.", "primaryActionLabel": "Download for OpenClaw", "primaryActionHref": "/downloads/cron-backup" }, "validation": { "installChecklist": [ "Use the Yavira download entry.", "Review SKILL.md after the package is downloaded.", "Confirm the extracted package contains the expected setup assets." ], "postInstallChecks": [ "Confirm the extracted package includes the expected docs or setup files.", "Validate the skill or prompts are available in your target agent workspace.", "Capture any manual follow-up steps the agent could not complete." ] } }, "links": { "detailUrl": "https://openagent3.xyz/skills/cron-backup", "downloadUrl": "https://openagent3.xyz/downloads/cron-backup", "agentUrl": "https://openagent3.xyz/skills/cron-backup/agent", "manifestUrl": "https://openagent3.xyz/skills/cron-backup/agent.json", "briefUrl": "https://openagent3.xyz/skills/cron-backup/agent.md" } } ``` ## Documentation ### Cron Backup Automated backup scheduling with version detection and intelligent cleanup. ### One-Time Backup # Backup a directory with timestamp ./scripts/backup.sh /path/to/source /path/to/backup/dir # Backup with custom name ./scripts/backup.sh /path/to/source /path/to/backup/dir my-backup ### Schedule Daily Backup # Set up daily backup at 2 AM ./scripts/setup-cron.sh daily /path/to/source /path/to/backup/dir "0 2 * * *" ### Version-Aware Backup # Backup only when version changes ./scripts/backup-versioned.sh /path/to/source /path/to/version/file /path/to/backup/dir ### Cleanup Old Backups # Keep only last 7 days of backups ./scripts/cleanup.sh /path/to/backup/dir 7 ### 1. Directory Backup Creates timestamped tar.gz archives Preserves file permissions and structure Excludes common temp files (node_modules, .git, etc.) ### 2. Version-Triggered Backup Monitors version file or command output Backs up only when version changes Useful for software updates ### 3. Scheduled Execution Integrates with system cron Supports custom schedules Logs execution results ### 4. Automatic Cleanup Deletes backups older than N days Keeps minimum number of backups Prevents disk space exhaustion ### Scripts All scripts are in scripts/ directory: backup.sh - Single backup execution backup-versioned.sh - Version-triggered backup setup-cron.sh - Cron job setup cleanup.sh - Old backup cleanup list-backups.sh - List available backups ### Backup Naming Convention Backups follow the pattern: {name}_YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS.tar.gz Examples: openclabak_20260204_101500.tar.gz myapp_20260204_000000.tar.gz ### Setting Up Automated Backups Decide backup strategy What to backup (source directory) Where to store (backup directory) How often (schedule) Retention policy (cleanup days) Run initial backup ./scripts/backup.sh /source /backup Set up schedule ./scripts/setup-cron.sh daily /source /backup "0 2 * * *" Configure cleanup ./scripts/setup-cron.sh cleanup /backup "" "0 3 * * *" 7 ### Version-Aware Backup Workflow For software that changes version (like OpenClaw): Identify version source Command: openclaw --version File: /path/to/version.txt Set up versioned backup ./scripts/backup-versioned.sh /app /app/version.txt /backups/app Schedule version check ./scripts/setup-cron.sh versioned /app /backups/app "0 */6 * * *" ### Pattern 1: Daily User Data Backup # Backup workspace daily, keep 30 days ./scripts/setup-cron.sh daily /home/user/workspace /backups/workspace "0 2 * * *" ./scripts/setup-cron.sh cleanup /backups/workspace "" "0 3 * * *" 30 ### Pattern 2: Version-Aware Application Backup # Backup when application updates ./scripts/setup-cron.sh versioned /opt/myapp /backups/myapp "0 */6 * * *" ./scripts/setup-cron.sh cleanup /backups/myapp "" "0 4 * * 0" 10 ### Pattern 3: Multi-Directory Backup # Backup multiple directories ./scripts/backup.sh /home/user/.config /backups/config ./scripts/backup.sh /home/user/projects /backups/projects ### Cron Schedule Format Standard cron format: minute hour day month weekday Common schedules: Daily at 2 AM: 0 2 * * * Every 6 hours: 0 */6 * * * Weekly on Sunday: 0 0 * * 0 Every 30 minutes: */30 * * * * ### Cleanup Policies Time-based: Keep backups for N days Count-based: Keep last N backups Combined: Default keeps 7 days minimum, but at least 3 backups ### Troubleshooting Permission denied: Ensure scripts are executable (chmod +x scripts/*.sh) Cron not running: Check cron service status (systemctl status cron) Disk full: Run cleanup manually or reduce retention period Backup fails: Check source directory exists and is readable ## Trust - Source: tencent - Verification: Indexed source record - Publisher: zfanmy - Version: 0.3.2 ## Source health - Status: healthy - Source download looks usable. - Yavira can redirect you to the upstream package for this source. - Health scope: source - Reason: direct_download_ok - Checked at: 2026-04-30T16:55:25.780Z - Expires at: 2026-05-07T16:55:25.780Z - Recommended action: Download for OpenClaw ## Links - [Detail page](https://openagent3.xyz/skills/cron-backup) - [Send to Agent page](https://openagent3.xyz/skills/cron-backup/agent) - [JSON manifest](https://openagent3.xyz/skills/cron-backup/agent.json) - [Markdown brief](https://openagent3.xyz/skills/cron-backup/agent.md) - [Download page](https://openagent3.xyz/downloads/cron-backup)
