Hermes Agent v0.14 Ships First-Class OpenClaw Migration Tool via hermes claw migrate

Nous Research ships hermes claw migrate in v0.14 (May 16): reads ~/.openclaw/config.yaml, transplants API keys, models, skills, and memory into ~/.hermes/. Hermes at 140K GitHub stars. First-class importer signals power shift.

Product Idea from this Signal

A CLI tool that validates OpenClaw-to-Hermes migration completeness by diffing config, skills, memory, and API key mappings and flagging gaps before cutover

Hermes Agent v0.14 shipped 'hermes claw migrate' which transplants config, API keys, skills, and memory from OpenClaw to Hermes. But the tool is one-directional and does not validate whether the migration was complete or whether behavioral drift occurred post-migration. With Hermes overtaking OpenClaw on OpenRouter (224B vs 186B daily tokens) and 140K GitHub stars, thousands of users are migrating without a way to verify nothing was lost. This tool diffs the source and destination configurations, runs behavioral smoke tests on both instances, and reports gaps.
