Memory Transfer

Transfer memory between OpenClaw agents with advanced features: topic-specific filtering, user info privacy protection, and intelligent agent identity adaptation. Use when: (1) Migrating context between agents, (2) Sharing knowledge without leaking user personal info, (3) Backing up agent memory. Supports share mode (filters user data + adapts to target agent) and clone mode (verbatim copy).
