#
# Cloud-init template for Azure VMs running OpenClaw with VM Memory Oracle.
# This script is idempotent: on first boot it formats the data disk and
# creates the directory structure. On subsequent boots (redeployment) it
# detects the existing filesystem and preserves all data.
#
# IMPORTANT: The data disk must be attached as a separate Azure managed disk
# with deleteOption: Detach so it survives VM deletion.
