# Restore Backup Skill
This skill allows you to restore the project files from a previously created backup directory.
## Capabilities
- Restores files from a source backup directory to the current workspace.
- Uses `rsync` to efficiently copy files and preserve permissions.
- Automatically excludes `.git` and `node_modules` from the restore process (keeps the current ones if the backup doesn't have them, or prevents overwriting them if it does).
## Usage
Run the python script with the path to the backup directory:
```bash
python .agent/skills/restore-backup/scripts/restore.py <BACKUP_PATH>
```
## Example
```bash
python .agent/skills/restore-backup/scripts/restore.py /path/to/backup_full_2023...
```
