What is clawkeep?

Clawkeep is a JavaScript CLI tool for automatic, zero-knowledge encrypted backups of directories, using git for full version history and time-travel restores. Run `clawkeep init` in any folder—like your AI agent workspace or dotfiles—and `clawkeep watch --daemon` to capture every change as AES-256 encrypted chunks, syncable to local paths, S3-compatible storage (R2, B2), or ClawKeep Cloud. Restore with `clawkeep restore HEAD~3`, and browse diffs via a local web dashboard at `clawkeep ui`.

Why is it gaining traction?

It solves the "cloud reads your data" problem with true zero-knowledge encryption—no file names, metadata, or plaintext leak—while keeping git's power for diffs and restores. Daemon mode runs keyless after one-time password setup, auto-syncs changes, and exports portable `.clawkeep.enc` archives. Developers dig the browser-based cloud auth and S3 flexibility for cheap private encrypted cloud storage.

Who should use this?

AI agent devs protecting memory files and configs from bad inferences, dotfiles hoarders wanting private encrypted backups without Time Machine gaps, or indie hackers securing private github repos, notes, and keys. Ideal for anyone handling sensitive private encrypted data like agent states or configs on a private github server.

Verdict

Grab it for personal use—npm install delivers pro-grade private encrypted backups in 30 seconds, with stellar docs and a polished UI. 102 stars and 1.0% credibility signal early days (test thoroughly), but it's mature enough for agents and side projects; teams hold for wider adoption.
