Description
Security scanner for ClawHub skills. Analyze before you install.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do exactly what it says: static analysis of ClawHub skills. Before installing, ensure you have the 'uv' runner and the 'clawhub' CLI from a trusted source, because the scanner will invoke the clawhub CLI to download third‑party skills into a temp directory for analysis. The scanner does not execute downloaded code, it only inspects it. Review the scanner's code if you want additional assurance (the repo is small and readable). If you rely on automated scanning for security decisions, remember static analysis has limits — follow the tool's own advice to manually review any CAUTION/DANGEROUS findings.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: skill-guard-pro
Version: 1.0.1
ClawGuard Pro is a security utility designed to perform static analysis on other OpenClaw skills. It uses regex-based pattern matching and Python AST parsing (in lib/analyzer.py and lib/patterns.py) to detect risks like shell injection, credential theft, and data exfiltration. While the skill performs high-privilege actions such as reading local files and executing the 'clawhub' CLI to download packages (in lib/downloader.py), these behaviors are transparently documented and strictly aligned with its stated purpose as a security scanner.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (security scanner) match the included files: analyzer, patterns, reporter, downloader, and a scan CLI. The declared required binary ('uv') is used by the README/SKILL.md examples and the project expects 'uv run' to execute the provided script. Nothing in the code requires unrelated cloud credentials or unrelated binaries.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs the agent to run the included scanner (uv run scripts/scan.py) and to optionally download skills via the clawhub CLI. The scanner performs static analysis only (regex/AST) and does not execute downloaded code. This is appropriate for the stated purpose, but the downloader will fetch arbitrary third-party skill code into a temp directory for analysis — you should ensure the clawhub CLI you use is trusted and understand that downloaded code is untrusted input to be inspected, not executed.
Install Mechanism
No install script is provided (instruction-only install examples). The repository contains Python code intended to be run directly. There are no opaque remote downloads or extracted archives performed by the skill itself. The only external tool invoked programmatically is the clawhub CLI (via subprocess), which is necessary to retrieve remote skills and is consistent with purpose.
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables or credentials and the code does not read secrets from the runtime environment. Pattern definitions look for credential-related patterns in target code (e.g., os.getenv in scanned files) but that is detection logic, not use of the host's secrets. No disproportionate credential access is requested.
Persistence & Privilege
Flags show always:false and default invocation behavior. The skill does not attempt to modify other skills or global agent configuration. It downloads files to a temporary directory and has cleanup logic to remove them; no persistent privileged presence is requested.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install skill-guard-pro - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/skill-guard-pro - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
