Any Sync Start

Any Sync Setup Wizard

Guide the user through setting up Any Sync for cross-device workspace sync.

Steps

1. Check Authentication

Run the auth check:

npx any-sync auth

If it fails (exit code 1), help the user set up authentication:

• Option A: Set GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable
• Option B: Run gh auth login to authenticate with GitHub CLI

Do not proceed until auth succeeds.

2. Get Sync Repo

Ask the user for their sync repo in owner/repo format. This is the GitHub repository where their OpenClaw workspace files will be stored.

If they don't have one yet, suggest they create a new private repo on GitHub first.

3. Create Config

Ask the user which items to sync (default: all three):

• Skills (~/.openclaw/workspace/skills)
• Memory (~/.openclaw/workspace/memory)
• Config files (AGENTS.md, SOUL.md, USER.md, TOOLS.md, IDENTITY.md)

Then run the init command with the OpenClaw preset:

npx any-sync init "$HOME/.any-sync.json" "<owner/repo>" "<branch>" --preset openclaw

Use main as the default branch unless the user specifies otherwise.

The init command respects OPENCLAW_WORKSPACE and OPENCLAW_PROFILE environment variables for custom workspace paths.

4. First Pull

Run the first pull to download existing files:

npx any-sync pull "$HOME/.any-sync.json" ".any-sync.lock"

5. Show Summary

Parse the JSON output and display what was synced in a readable format:

• Number of files pulled per mapping
• Any conflicts found
• Config file location
