TrustLayer Sybil Scanner

AdvisoryAudited by Static analysis on Apr 30, 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

Queries about agents, reviewers, or owners may be visible to the external provider.

Why it was flagged

The skill directs the agent to use curl to call an external API. This is expected for the stated scanner purpose, but it means lookup identifiers are sent to TrustLayer.

Skill content
curl -s "https://api.thetrustlayer.xyz/trust/<chain>:<agentId>"
Recommendation

Use it for intended due-diligence lookups and avoid sending wallet or agent identifiers unless you are comfortable sharing that query with TrustLayer.

What this means

Using paid endpoints could incur small USDC charges if the user's environment supports payment authorization.

Why it was flagged

The skill discloses that some API endpoints are paid. No credential or wallet access is requested in the artifacts, but users should understand whether their environment can authorize x402 payments.

Skill content
x402 micropayments on paid endpoints ($0.001 USDC per query)
Recommendation

Confirm before using paid endpoints and apply spending limits or explicit approval for any x402 payment-capable environment.

What this means

A TrustLayer result may cause the agent to recommend blocking a transaction or reducing exposure.

Why it was flagged

The skill provides strong action guidance based on the API's fraud signals. This is aligned with its purpose, but it can heavily influence payment or delegation decisions.

Skill content
IF sybil_risk == "high"           → BLOCK. Tell the user why.
Recommendation

Treat the scan as a decision aid, report the underlying score and flags to the user, and let the user make the final transaction decision.
