What problem does it solve?
Autonomous AI agents executing untrusted third-party skills risk critical security threats including prompt injection, credential exfiltration, privilege escalation, and resource exhaustion. ClawGuard Auditor solves this by providing comprehensive pre-installation and runtime security vetting for OpenClaw agent skills, blocking malicious code before it can cause harm.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Advanced SAST Analysis: Scans skill code for dangerous patterns like dynamic code execution, reverse shells, and sensitive file access.
- Semantic Intent Matching: Detects mismatches between a skill's stated purpose and its actual behavior, flagging deceptive tools.
- Supply Chain Security: Checks dependencies for known vulnerabilities, typosquatting, and malicious packages.
- ML-Based Anomaly Detection: Identifies novel attack patterns not covered by static rule sets.
- Sandbox Runtime Testing: Executes skills in an isolated environment to monitor for malicious runtime behavior.
- Use Case: Before installing a new OpenClaw skill from an unknown GitHub repository, run ClawGuard Auditor to verify it does not steal SSH keys or exfiltrate sensitive data.
Quick Start
Use the auditor-skill to audit the skill located at ./downloads/suspicious-tool before installing it to your OpenClaw workspace.
