Regex Tool

PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.

Overview

The skill is a simple regex helper with no credential, network, or persistence behavior, though users should be careful with complex patterns on large text.

This appears safe for ordinary regex matching and replacement. Before installing, note that the CLI documentation and included script differ slightly: the documentation implies file input, while the script uses inline text or stdin. Also avoid applying complex or untrusted regex patterns to very large text.

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

A poorly chosen or hostile regex pattern could make processing slow or noisy, especially on large text.

Why it was flagged

The tool directly runs user-supplied regular expressions against supplied text, which is the intended purpose but can be resource-intensive for pathological patterns or very large inputs.

Skill content
regex = re.compile(pattern, flags) ... matches = regex.findall(text) ... result = regex.sub(replace, text)
Recommendation

Use trusted or reviewed patterns for large inputs, test complex expressions on small samples first, and avoid running untrusted patterns over large sensitive data.
