OpenClaw Skill Builder (Based on Claude)

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is an instruction-only helper for creating and auditing skills; it has some broad wording users should review, but no hidden code, installs, credentials, or data access.

Safe to install as a skill-authoring helper. Before accepting changes it proposes, review SKILL.md diffs for narrow trigger phrases, clear boundaries, scoped tool permissions, and any instructions that would persistently change how agents behave.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
85% confidence
Finding
The trigger phrase at this location is broad enough to match many ordinary workspace requests, which can cause the meta-skill to activate when the user did not intend to create or audit skills. Because this is a meta-skill that influences how other skills are created or updated, accidental activation can propagate poor scoping or override more appropriate task-specific behavior.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
81% confidence
Finding
The example guidance endorses generic wording that could be copied into new skills, teaching authors to use triggers that are too broad for safe routing. In a skill-builder context, this is more dangerous than in an ordinary document because it can systematically reproduce overbroad activation patterns across many downstream skills.
