Safely perform OpenClaw upgrades with snapshots, pre-flight checks, controlled upgrade steps, verification, and emergency rollback to avoid breaking production
Upgrade Guard provides a safe, repeatable workflow for upgrading OpenClaw installations. It automates snapshots of current state, runs pre-flight checks, performs a controlled multi-step upgrade (with build and dependency steps), verifies the system post-upgrade, and offers an emergency rollback path if anything fails. It also includes an optional watchdog for ongoing system health and automatic recovery.
Use Upgrade Guard whenever you need to update an OpenClaw deployment or its dependencies—especially on production gateways or remote servers where an upgrade failure would be disruptive. Run its snapshot and check steps before any git pull && pnpm install cycle, and use the upgrade/verify commands for safe rollout.
Best suited for agents that can run shell commands and manage system services (CLI-capable agents, Copilot/Codex-like tooling, and autonomous maintenance agents).
