backup-restore

backup-restore is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Seeed-Projects/Seeed-Jetson-DevelopTool. It costs 40 tokens per session (1,258 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A procedure for backing up and restoring a complete system image on a Seeed reComputer J3011 Jetson device. It requires an Ubuntu 20.04 or 22.04 computer, a USB-C data cable, and matching JetPack files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to enter recovery mode, create a backup image, and restore that image to the Jetson device using the L4T backup and restore script.
Why use it?
It gives the recovery and flashing work a step-by-step process with checks after each phase. This reduces the risk of continuing after a failed hardware or software step.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is sudo ./tools/backup_restore/l4t_backup_restore.sh -e nvme0n1 -b recomputer-orin.

Good fit Use it to enter recovery mode, create a backup image, and restore that image to the Jetson device using the L4T backup and restore script.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade B, and why

backup-restore scanned grade B with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Backup and Restore reComputer Jetson System Image

Hardware required: Ubuntu host PC, USB-C cable, reComputer J3011 (JetPack 5.1.3). The backup and restore operations use the same script with different flags — complete Phases 1–4 for both operations.


Execution model

Run one phase at a time. After each phase:

  • Relay all command output to the user.
  • If output contains [STOP] → stop immediately, consult the failure decision tree below.
  • If output ends with [OK] → tell the user "Phase N complete" and proceed to the next phase.

Prerequisites

Requirement Detail
Host OS Ubuntu 20.04 or 22.04 (native, not VM)
Cable USB-C data cable ≤1.5 m
BSP package Jetson_Linux_R35.5.0_aarch64.tbz2 (JetPack 5.1.3)
Flashing package mfi_recomputer-orin (Seeed massflash image)
Disk space ≥64 GB free on host for backup image

Phase 1 — Enter force recovery mode (physical steps, no commands)

Do these steps in order:

  1. Power off the reComputer J3011 completely.
  2. Locate the REC (recovery) button and GND pin on the carrier board.
  3. Hold the REC button (or short REC to GND with a jumper).
  4. While holding REC, connect the USB-C cable from the Jetson to the Ubuntu host.
  5. Apply power to the Jetson; wait 2–3 seconds, then release REC / remove the jumper.

Verify on the host:

lsusb | grep -i nvidia
# Expected: Bus 00x Device 00x: ID 0955:7045 NVIDIA Corp. APX

[OK] when the NVIDIA APX device appears. [STOP] if it does not — see failure decision tree.


Phase 2 — Download and extract BSP

Download Jetson_Linux_R35.5.0_aarch64.tbz2 from the NVIDIA L4T archive, then extract:

tar -xvzf Jetson_Linux_R35.5.0_aarch64.tbz2
# Produces: Linux_for_Tegra/

[OK] when extraction completes without errors and Linux_for_Tegra/ directory exists.


Phase 3 — Merge BSP into flashing package

Copy BSP files into the Seeed massflash package without overwriting existing files:

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

backup-restore is a skill published in the GitHub repository Seeed-Projects/Seeed-Jetson-DevelopTool (56 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 40 tokens to every session and 1,258 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (asks for root). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
