# Memory Log: Cloud Backup System
Date: 2026-01-19

## What Was Done

Created a **comprehensive cloud backup system** to protect all work from computer reset.

---

## Tools Installed

1. **rclone** - Universal cloud storage tool
   - Installed via Homebrew
   - Supports: Google Drive, Dropbox, DigitalOcean Spaces, AWS S3, OneDrive
   - Command: `rclone config` to set up

---

## Scripts Created

| Script | Purpose | Uses |
|---------|----------|-------|
| `backup_to_cloud.sh` | Upload all data to cloud storage | rclone |
| `restore_from_cloud.sh` | Download from cloud storage | rclone |
| `backup_to_github.sh` | Backup code to GitHub | git |

---

## Documentation Created

| File | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| `CLOUD-BACKUP-SETUP.md` | How to set up cloud storage |
| `CLOUD-BACKUP-SYSTEM.md` | Complete guide to all backups |
| `memory/2026-01-19-cloud-backup.md` | This file |

## Three-Tier Backup System

### Tier 1: Local Backup (Already Created)
- Scripts: `backup_before_reset.sh`, `restore_after_reset.sh`
- Location: `~/.clawdbot/workspace/backup-before-reset-*/`
- Protects against: Computer reset (if user data preserved)
- Risk: Lost if hard drive fails

### Tier 2: Cloud Backup (New)
- Scripts: `backup_to_cloud.sh`, `restore_from_cloud.sh`
- Location: Configured cloud storage (rclone remote)
- Protects against: Computer reset, hard drive failure
- Setup required: Run `rclone config`

### Tier 3: GitHub Backup (New)
- Script: `backup_to_github.sh`
- Location: GitHub repository
- Protects against: Code loss
- Setup required: Create GitHub repo

---

## Recommended Cloud Provider

**DigitalOcean Spaces** (recommended)
- Why: Jake already has DO account
- Free tier: 250 GB for 10 months
- S3-compatible: Works with rclone
- Fast: Good upload/download speeds

---

## What Gets Protected

### Critical Data (All 3 tiers)
- Cron jobs (6 jobs)
- Launchd services
- PostgreSQL database
- Tracking data (predictions, remixes)
- Environment files (.env)
- Clawdbot workspace
- Custom scripts

### Code Only (Tier 3 - GitHub)
- Remix Sniper source code
- Scrapers, analyzers, models
- Bot commands, cogs

---

## How to Use

### Set Up Cloud Storage (One-Time)
```bash
rclone config
# Follow prompts for DigitalOcean Spaces
# Name: do-spaces
# Type: s3 -> DigitalOcean
# API key: Get from DO dashboard
# Endpoint: https://nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com
```

### Run Cloud Backup
```bash
~/.clawdbot/workspace/backup_to_cloud.sh do-spaces
```

### Run GitHub Backup
```bash
cd ~/projects/remix-sniper
~/.clawdbot/workspace/backup_to_github.sh jakeshore remix-sniper
```

## Before Reset Checklist

- [ ] Run local backup: `~/.clawdbot/workspace/backup_before_reset.sh`
- [ ] Run cloud backup: `~/.clawdbot/workspace/backup_to_cloud.sh do-spaces`
- [ ] Push to GitHub: `git push`
- [ ] Copy backups to external drive

---

## After Reset Checklist

- [ ] Install tools: `brew install postgresql@16 rclone git`
- [ ] Restore from cloud: `~/.clawdbot/workspace/restore_from_cloud.sh do-spaces ...`
- [ ] Clone from GitHub: `git clone https://github.com/jakeshore/remix-sniper.git ~/projects/remix-sniper`
- [ ] Run verification commands (see CLOUD-BACKUP-SYSTEM.md)

---

## 1Password Status

- CLI version: 2.32.0
- Account found: jakeshore98@gmail.com (FNFLSCM5NNDQ3IMHEX2WZJZAKM)
- Issue: Desktop app needs update for CLI integration
- Workaround: Manual setup of cloud storage (rclone config)

---

## Notes

- rclone is installed and ready to use
- All backup scripts are executable
- 1Password CLI can't authenticate due to app version issue
- User will need to manually configure rclone with cloud provider credentials
- Google Places API key found in environment (for future use)

---

## Next Steps for User

1. Update 1Password desktop app
2. Run `rclone config` to set up cloud storage
3. Run first cloud backup
4. Create GitHub repo
5. Test restore from cloud
