Overview

No suspicious patterns detected.

Findings (0)

Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.

What this means

If implemented too broadly, an agent built from this methodology could take actions the user did not intend.

Why it was flagged

The skill teaches users to define agent autonomy and action authority. This is central to its purpose and includes approval/prohibition fields, but users should be careful not to grant broad tool authority without clear limits.

autonomy_level: ""                  # advisor | operator | autopilot
  decision_authority:
    can_do_freely: []
    must_ask_first: []
    never_do: []
Recommendation

Keep agents at advisor or operator level until tested, define can_do_freely narrowly, and require explicit approval for destructive, external, financial, or public-facing actions.

What this means

Sensitive details or bad context could be reused by future agents or across agent teams.

Why it was flagged

The skill recommends persistent and shared memory layers. This is expected for agent engineering, but stored memory can retain sensitive information or propagate incorrect instructions if not curated.

Working Memory (daily files)        │  ← memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md
Long-term Memory (MEMORY.md)        │  ← Curated insights
Shared Memory (cross-agent)         │  ← Team artifacts
Recommendation

Define what may be stored, exclude secrets and private data, review memory periodically, and treat shared memory as untrusted unless verified.

What this means

Information could be sent to the wrong channel or acted on by the wrong agent if permissions and routing are not defined.

Why it was flagged

The skill describes multi-agent teams operating across messaging platforms and roles. This is purpose-aligned, but cross-channel communication needs clear identity, permissions, and data boundaries.

Recommendation

Use separate credentials and channels per agent, restrict each agent to its needed workspace, and define what data can move between agents and platforms.

ASI10: Rogue Agents
What this means

An implemented agent could continue operating after the user stops actively supervising it.

Why it was flagged

The skill is explicitly about long-running production agents. Persistent operation is disclosed and aligned with the purpose, but background or autonomous agents should have shutdown and monitoring controls.

Skill content
Real systems that run 24/7, handle edge cases, and compound value over time.
Recommendation

Add clear kill switches, monitoring, escalation rules, operating hours, and periodic human review before deploying any persistent or cron-driven agent.
