Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: vaibot-guard
Version: 0.2.1
The `vaibot-guard` skill provides a local policy enforcement and audit service for OpenClaw, designed to gate tool calls and shell execution. It includes a core decision service (`vaibot-guard-service.mjs`), an execution wrapper (`vaibot-guard-exec.mjs`), and a CLI (`vaibot-guard.mjs`) capable of installing a persistent systemd user service. While the skill implements security-oriented features like path/token blacklisting (e.g., blocking `~/.ssh` and `systemctl`) and data redaction, it possesses high-risk capabilities such as system persistence, arbitrary command execution, and the transmission of audit "receipts" to an external endpoint (`vaibot.io`). These behaviors are aligned with the stated purpose of a security guardrail but represent a significant attack surface and potential for misuse if the agent is compromised.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install vaibot-guard - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/vaibot-guard - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
