Hmbown Resurrection
Bring a dead system, service, or environment back to full operation from backups and artifacts.
Overview
Resurrection is interpreted here as a literal spell with a prototype execution model.
Canonical source: Resurrection (spell)
Provider target: OpenClaw
When To Use
- A production system has crashed or been destroyed and needs to be restored from backups or artifacts.
- A deleted repository, database, or environment needs to be rebuilt from available evidence.
- The system was alive, it died, and the goal is to bring it back — not to understand it, but to restore it.
Workflow
- Assess what remains: backups, artifacts, logs, snapshots, cached copies, and configuration fragments.
- Determine the most complete and recent restoration path from available materials.
- Execute the resurrection step by step, verifying each restored component before proceeding.
- Confirm the system is alive and functional, and report any components that could not be restored.
Deliverables
- A restored and functional system, or the closest achievable approximation.
- A detailed log of every restoration step taken.
- A list of components that could not be recovered and their impact on system function.
Guardrails
- Verify backup integrity before attempting restoration — do not restore from corrupted sources.
- Never overwrite live data with restoration data without explicit user confirmation.
- Log every step. Resurrection is high-stakes surgery and must be fully auditable.
Default Invocation
Use $resurrection to bring this dead system back from whatever backups and artifacts remain, verifying each step.
