Restore a previous restart snapshot from XMemo.
AI agents invoke xmemo_restart_snapshot_restore to trigger actions in Openclaw Memory. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
xmemo_restart_snapshot_restore triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once — it starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.
