Protobuf Linter

PassAudited by VirusTotal on May 1, 2026.

Overview

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: protobuf-linter Version: 1.0.1 The protobuf-linter skill is a legitimate tool for analyzing Protocol Buffer files for style violations and breaking changes. The core logic in `scripts/protobuf_linter.py` uses standard Python libraries and regex-based parsing to validate file structure and naming conventions without any network activity, shell execution, or unauthorized file access. No indicators of malicious intent or prompt injection were found.

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

Running the skill executes a local script and reads the specified .proto files or directories.

Why it was flagged

The skill is intended to execute an included local Python linter. This is expected for the stated purpose, but users should understand they are running local code against paths they provide.

Skill content
python3 scripts/protobuf_linter.py lint path/to/file.proto
Recommendation

Run it only on intended project paths, and review the script if you need stronger assurance before execution.

What this means

The skill may fail on systems without Python 3, and the runtime requirement is less clearly declared than it could be.

Why it was flagged

The registry requirements do not declare python3 even though SKILL.md documents python3 commands. This is an operational metadata gap, not evidence of malicious behavior.

Skill content
Required binaries (all must exist): none
Recommendation

Ensure Python 3 is available before use; the publisher should declare python3 as a required binary.
