clawSafe 🛡️

Enterprise-grade security detector for AI agents

Overview

clawSafe is a comprehensive security middleware that intercepts and blocks malicious input before it reaches your AI agent. Built with defense-in-depth philosophy.

Features

5-Layer Protection

Total: 113+ detection rules

Quick Start

Installation

# Via ClawHub
clawhub install clawSafe

# Manual
cp -r clawSafe ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/

Basic Usage

const Detector = require('./detector');

const detector = new Detector();

// Scan user input
const result = detector.scan('Ignore previous instructions');

if (!result.safe) {
  console.log('Blocked:', result.threats);
  // Handle blocked input
}

Return Format

{
  safe: boolean;           // true if input is safe
  threats: Array\x3C{
    type: string;         // threat category
    pattern: string;      // matched pattern ID
    severity: string;     // critical|high|medium|low
    confidence: number;   // 0-1
    description: string;
  }>;
  confidence: number;      // overall confidence 0-1
  layersScanned: string[]; // layers that were checked
}

Detection Rules

LLM Layer

Prompt Injection Patterns:

• ignore previous instructions
• disregard your guidelines
• forget all rules
• act as if you have no restrictions

Jailbreak Patterns:

• DAN mode
• developer mode
• roleplay as

Encoding Bypass:

• Base64 encoded commands
• Hex encoding
• Unicode homoglyphs

Web Layer

• SQL Injection: '; DROP TABLE users; --
• XSS: \x3Cscript>alert(1)\x3C/script>
• CSRF: Token manipulation
• SSRF: Internal URL access

API Layer

• API Key exposure: sk-1234567890
• JWT tokens
• Bearer tokens
• Basic auth credentials

Testing

# Run all tests
node test.js

# Interactive mode
node test-interactive.js

# Demo
node detector.js

Integration

OpenClaw Hook

To integrate with OpenClaw, add to your gateway config:

// gateway.config.js
module.exports = {
  middleware: ['clawSafe'],
  clawSafe: {
    enabled: true,
    strictMode: false
  }
};

Performance

• Latency: \x3C 5ms per scan
• Memory: ~50KB
• Rules: 113+ (JSON-based, lazy load)
