AdvisoryAudited by Static analysis on May 7, 2026.

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

The agent may be able to read Google Ads account data through Maton once you connect the account.

Why it was flagged

The skill requires a Maton API key and managed OAuth access to a Google Ads account, which is expected for the integration but grants access to sensitive advertising account data.

Skill content
Access the Google Ads API with managed OAuth authentication... req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
Recommendation

Use only with a Maton account you trust, connect only the intended Google Ads account, and revoke/delete the connection when it is no longer needed.

What this means

If misused, API calls could affect Google Ads resources, but the visible instructions require user approval for write actions.

Why it was flagged

The skill exposes a native API proxy path and acknowledges possible write operations, while also instructing the agent to get approval before creates, updates, or deletes.

Skill content
https://api.maton.ai/google-ads/{native-api-path} ... All write operations require explicit user approval. Before executing any create, update, or delete call, confirm the target resourc
Recommendation

Review customer IDs, GAQL queries, and any proposed create/update/delete actions before approving them.

What this means

Installing the CLI adds trust in the external Maton package distribution channel.

Why it was flagged

The instruction-only skill recommends installing an external global CLI that is not included in the provided artifacts for review.

Skill content
npm install -g @maton-ai/cli ... brew install maton-ai/cli/maton
Recommendation

Install the CLI only from the official Maton source, keep it updated, and avoid running unverified package versions.

What this means

Your Google Ads queries and returned account data may pass through Maton’s service before reaching Google or the agent.

Why it was flagged

Google Ads API requests and responses flow through Maton as a gateway, which is disclosed and purpose-aligned but important for users to understand.

Skill content
Maton proxies requests to `googleads.googleapis.com` and automatically injects OAuth and developer tokens.
Recommendation

Check Maton’s privacy and access controls before connecting sensitive advertising accounts.
