Heartbeat Ollama Guard

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill clearly does what it advertises: switches OpenClaw heartbeat traffic to local Ollama and installs a local guard, with notable but disclosed persistence and configuration-change behavior.

Install only if you want a background user-level service enforcing the local Ollama heartbeat setting. Review the listed OpenClaw instances during setup, keep the backups, prefer safer Ollama installation methods over curl-to-shell, and use --uninstall or update heartbeat-guard.conf.json before making later heartbeat model changes.

Intent-Code Divergence

Medium
Confidence
90% confidence
Finding
The generated README presents a misleading security claim: it says there is no external API access, while the documented setup process explicitly includes downloading/installing Ollama and automatically pulling a model from the network. Misrepresenting network behavior can cause users to make unsafe trust decisions, especially in a security-sensitive skill that modifies local configuration and installs persistent components.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
88% confidence
Finding
The description advertises broad capabilities such as automatically reconfiguring all instances, polling every 60 seconds, rolling back changes, and deploying persistent services, but it does not define clear trigger conditions, scope limits, or authorization boundaries. For a skill that changes configuration and installs a LaunchAgent/system service, this ambiguity increases the risk of unintended execution, overreach, or abuse of privileged persistence behavior.
