Backendenc

Backend Agent Data Encryption. High-security MK->KEK->DEK hierarchy for backend environments.

backendenc: Backend Security Toolkit

This skill provides mandatory encryption for OpenClaw agents running in Node.js/Backend environments. It operates in Local Manual Mode, using the Node.js built-in crypto module.

Context

Unlike the frontend version which uses Web Crypto, this version is designed for server-side execution, CLI tools, or background agents. It stores metadata in a persistent local file (or compatible storage provider).

Key Hierarchy

1. Master Key (MK): Derived from your passphrase using crypto.pbkdf2.
   • Persistence: A unique "Salt" is stored in your configuration. As long as you remember your passphrase, the same Master Key will be generated across reboots.
2. Key Encryption Key (KEK): Generated randomly and encrypted by your MK.
3. Data Encryption Keys (DEKs): Scoped keys (e.g., memory, assets) encrypted by the KEK.

Security Disclosure

• Zero Network: This skill does NOT perform any external network requests. All operations happen via the Node.js crypto module.
• No Cleartext Keys: Keys are never stored in cleartext. They are always "wrapped" (encrypted) by a higher-level key using AES-256-GCM.
• Passphrase Obligation: You must provide your passphrase to "unlock" the vault after هر server reboot.

Multi-User & Channel Isolation

Designed for high-concurrency backend environments:

• Key Partitioning: All storage keys follow the ${userId}:${channelId}:key format.
• Security: Ensures that even if the underlying storage file is compromised, keys for different users remain cryptographically separated.

Usage (Backend)

javascript

import { EncryptionService } from './encryption-service.js';

// Access context IDs
const { userId, channelId } = agent.context;

// Unlock for context
await EncryptionService.unlock(userId, channelId, 'passphrase');

// Scoped encryption
const encrypted = await EncryptionService.encrypt(userId, channelId, 'history', 'data');
