Product Idea from this Signal

A CLI tool that migrates OpenClaw agent configurations, skills, and memory to Hermes Agent or OpenHuman without rewriting any skill code

181.5k ▲

Hermes Agent hit 140K GitHub stars and overtook OpenClaw on OpenRouter daily token processing (224B vs 186B). OpenHuman crossed 23K stars in 2 weeks. 30% of developers surveyed have already switched from OpenClaw. But migration means rewriting skills, reconfiguring memory backends, and rebuilding automations from scratch. A migration tool that reads OpenClaw skill manifests, memory stores, and cron configs and outputs equivalent Hermes/OpenHuman configurations would remove the biggest friction for the exodus.
