Adaptive Reasoning

PassAudited by VirusTotal on May 12, 2026.

Overview

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: adaptive-reasoning Version: 1.0.0 The 'adaptive-reasoning' skill is designed to enhance the AI agent's performance by dynamically adjusting its internal reasoning level based on task complexity. All instructions within SKILL.md, including those that modify the agent's internal state (e.g., `/reasoning on`, `session_status` tool) and output (appending icons), are directly aligned with this stated purpose. There is no evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, persistence, or any other harmful intent; the 'prompt injection' aspects are for self-regulation and meta-cognition, not for malicious manipulation.

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 silently use deeper reasoning, potentially changing latency, token use, and response style, and may append reasoning icons to answers.

Why it was flagged

The skill instructs the agent to automatically invoke internal reasoning controls without asking the user each time. This is aligned with the skill’s purpose, but it changes session behavior automatically.

Skill content
Do not ask. Just activate. ... Use `session_status` tool or `/reasoning on` command internally before responding
Recommendation

Install only if you want automatic reasoning-mode adjustment; otherwise prefer manual `/reasoning on` and `/reasoning off` control.
