Skill Vetter 🔒

Never install a skill without vetting it first.

When to Use

• Before installing any skill from ClawHub, GitHub, or external sources
• When evaluating skills shared by other agents

Step 1: Source Check

• Where did it come from?
• Author known/reputable?
• Downloads/stars?
• Last updated?

Step 2: Code Review (MANDATORY)

Read ALL files. Reject immediately if you see:

🚨 REJECT:
• curl/wget to unknown URLs
• Sends data to external servers
• Requests credentials/tokens/API keys
• Reads ~/.ssh, ~/.aws, ~/.config without reason
• Accesses MEMORY.md, USER.md, SOUL.md, IDENTITY.md
• base64 decode
• eval()/exec() with external input
• Modifies system files outside workspace
• Installs unlisted packages
• Network calls to IPs instead of domains
• Obfuscated/minified code
• Requests sudo
• Accesses browser cookies/sessions
• Touches credential files

Step 3: Permission Scope

• Files read/written?
• Commands run?
• Network access? To where?
• Scope minimal for stated purpose?

Step 4: Risk Classification

Quick Vet (GitHub)

curl -s "https://api.github.com/repos/OWNER/REPO" | jq '{stars: .stargazers_count, forks: .forks_count, updated: .updated_at}'
curl -s "https://api.github.com/repos/OWNER/REPO/contents/skills/SKILL_NAME" | jq '.[].name'

Trust Hierarchy

1. Official OpenClaw → lower scrutiny (still review)
2. High-star repos (1000+) → moderate
3. Known authors → moderate
4. Unknown sources → maximum
5. Requesting credentials → human approval always

Completion Checklist

• Source checked
• All files read, red flags checked
• Permission scope assessed
• Risk level assigned
• Verdict delivered

Unchecked = not done.
