Goal: get the user's Walnut data back, verified, with zero chance of making things worse. You are doing the restore for the user. Be proactive: run the commands yourself, verify integrity yourself, and only ask when the answer is genuinely theirs (which bucket, which restore point, whether to adopt).
Restore Backup is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the appsec-tools sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/restore-backup/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when a user lost their Walnut data, got a new machine, or wants to verify their backups actually restore.
The Restore Backup Claude Code skill is built for security engineers, penetration testers, DevSecOps practitioners, and development teams hardening codebases and infrastructure. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 213,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
