```text
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira.

## Documentation

### OpenClaw Sacred Rules

The 8 Sacred Rules learned from production disasters. Never violate these rules.

### 1. Verify Backups Before Confirming

# Always verify files exist and are valid
ls -la backup-file.json
python3 -m json.tool backup-file.json > /dev/null

### 2. Never Edit openclaw.json Manually

Wrong: nano ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json
Right: Use Python/CLI tools that handle JSON safely

### 3. Never Add Unverified Config Keys

Check official docs or ask before adding ANY new configuration keys.

### 4. Never Enable Sandbox Without Backup

Sandbox mode can cascade auth failures. Always backup first and test in isolation.

### 5. All Providers Failing = Config Issue

If multiple model providers fail simultaneously, suspect recent config changes, not provider outages.

### 6. Prefix Auth Commands with Environment

source ~/.openclaw/.env && openclaw auth <command>

### 7. Anthropic 401 = Check auth-profiles.json

Don't read the file directly - use openclaw status or CLI tools.

### 8. tool_use without tool_result = Reset Session

Corrupted sessions need /reset to recover.

### Safe Backup Script

Use the provided backup script instead of manual file copying:

scripts/safe_backup.sh

### Cooldown Reset Script

When experiencing "all providers unavailable" errors despite valid credentials, the in-memory cooldown state may be stale. Use:

scripts/reset_cooldowns.sh

This clears expired cooldowns from auth-profiles.json.

Note: This is a workaround for a bug where in-memory cooldown state doesn't refresh when file timestamps expire.

### Config Validation

Before applying config changes:

scripts/config_validator.py ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json

### Recovery Procedures

When you break a rule, see references/recovery.md for step-by-step recovery procedures.

### Auth Troubleshooting

For auth issues, use the safe checker:

scripts/auth_checker.sh

Never directly read auth-profiles.json - use the checker script instead.
