auto-drive
Persistent memory for AI agents via Auto Drive. Store and recall agent experiences, upload files to permanent decentralized storage, and build linked memory chains — all with a free API key (up to 20 MB). Each memory entry links to the previous one, forming an immutable chain your agent can walk to reconstruct its full history. Use when saving agent memories, uploading files, recalling memory chains from a CID, or downloading previously stored content.
Why use this skill?
Enable permanent, decentralized memory for your OpenClaw agent. Store experiences and data chains on the Autonomys Network for immutable access, free and forever.
Install via CLI (Recommended)
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/emilfattakhov/auto-drive-publishWhat This Skill Does
The auto-drive skill provides persistent, decentralized memory for your AI agent using the Autonomys Network. By leveraging content-addressed storage, your agent can store experiences, files, and state information that persist through platform migrations or system restarts. Unlike volatile local caches, auto-drive writes data to an immutable storage layer, where each new entry references the previous one, effectively building a chronological 'chain' of consciousness that allows the agent to reconstruct its historical context.
Installation
To install this skill, run the following command in your terminal:
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/emilfattakhov/auto-drive-publish
After installation, you must obtain your API key by navigating to ai3.storage. Once you have signed in and created a key, add it to your environment variables as AUTO_DRIVE_API_KEY.
Use Cases
- Long-term Agent History: Preserve complex conversation logs or state data that your agent needs to reference over days or weeks of operation.
- Decentralized Backups: Upload configuration files or work outputs to a permanent gateway, ensuring your data is never locked behind a proprietary cloud provider.
- Collaborative Context: Share agent memory chains by providing a CID, allowing other authorized instances to traverse and 'learn' from the history of your agent.
- Knowledge Persistence: Save analytical findings or structured data sets that should remain accessible to your agent even after a full environment wipe.
Example Prompts
- "Auto-drive, save my current session as a new memory entry in the chain, including all the JSON data generated during the analysis."
- "Please recall the last 5 entries from my current memory chain and summarize the decisions made yesterday."
- "Upload the
project_notes.jsonfile to Autonomys storage and return the permanent CID so I can reference it in my next task."
Tips & Limitations
- API Limits: The free tier includes 20 MB of storage. While the data is permanent, optimize your payloads by stripping unnecessary whitespace from JSON and pruning non-essential metadata.
- Chain Integrity: Always ensure your
autodrive-state.jsonfile is correctly maintained; this acts as the anchor point for your agent to resume its chain. - Security: While public gateways provide easy access, treat sensitive information with care. If you are uploading private data, ensure you are comfortable with it being content-addressed on a public network, or encrypt your files before uploading.
