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.
A future implementation could observe application traffic, including sensitive request or response content, if the operator opts in.
The intended future capability is to inspect HTTP and optionally HTTPS traffic, which is high-impact if implemented, but it directly matches the security-monitoring purpose and is disclosed.
- host-side HTTP proxy inspection - optional HTTPS inspection with host-held CA material - outbound exfiltration detection - inbound injection detection
Only enable an implementation that keeps proxying opt-in, scopes monitored traffic, limits scan size, and does not block or redirect traffic without explicit operator approval.
If HTTPS inspection is later implemented, it may require trust configuration that can affect what traffic the monitor can see.
Optional HTTPS inspection involves CA trust material, a privileged capability that could expose encrypted traffic if mishandled; the spec explicitly confines the CA key to the host and forbids automatic trust-store changes.
- CA private key material must stay host-side. - System trust-store instructions must require explicit operator confirmation and must never run automatically.
Review any future implementation for explicit CA setup prompts, host-only private-key storage, clear CA fingerprint display, and no automatic system-wide trust changes.
Traffic findings could reveal destinations, threat types, or other metadata about monitored activity.
The design stores and exposes persistent findings, which may include sensitive traffic metadata even when snippets are redacted; the artifacts require redaction before persistence and responses.
- Emit JSONL findings with redacted snippets. - Expose MCP tools that return status and redacted findings only.
Use a future implementation only if log locations, retention, permissions, and redaction behavior are clear and testable.
A future MCP surface could reveal monitoring status or redacted findings to container-side tools.
The future design exposes monitoring results through MCP tools, which is an inter-component communication surface; the artifacts describe it as status/config/redacted-findings only.
MCP tool surface - `clawsec_traffic_status` - `clawsec_traffic_findings` - `clawsec_traffic_check_config`
Ensure any future MCP implementation authenticates/authorizes access as appropriate and returns only redacted, bounded, operator-approved information.
