Nous Research releases a migration guide detailing how to transition legacy OpenClaw configurations to Hermes Agent.
Nous Research has published a guide on migrating legacy OpenClaw, Clawdbot, and Moldbot setups to Hermes Agent using the `hermes claw migrate` CLI command. The tool maps personas, workspace instructions, long-term memories, and model configurations to the Hermes framework, while offering options to selectively import API keys, dry-run the process, and handle skill conflicts. Legacy features without direct Hermes equivalents, such as cron configs and custom plugins, are archived for manual recovery.
The migration tool streamlines the adoption of Hermes Agent, but developers must still manually reconstruct complex workflows like cron schedules and plugins.
- –Key migration pathways cover crucial files like `SOUL.md` (persona) and `MEMORY.md` (long-term memory).
- –Built-in dry-run and backup mechanisms protect user workspaces during transition.
- –Unified OAuth via Nous Portal collapses multi-provider API keys into a single login.
- –Messaging channel setups for Slack, Discord, and Telegram are preserved, though WhatsApp requires re-pairing.
