How To Do

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This appears to be a benign OpenClaw coaching guide with a simple local assessment script, but it recommends installing other skills and can save assessment notes locally.

This skill looks safe to install as a guide. Before following its recommendations, review any additional skills it suggests because those may request separate permissions or credentials. If you run the quick assessment helper, expect it to create a local markdown report that you should treat as private if it contains work or personal details.

ASI02: Tool Misuse and Exploitation
Low
What this means

Installing recommended skills could grant your agent new tools or permissions depending on those skills.

Why it was flagged

The guide recommends installing additional skills as part of its coaching purpose. This is user-directed and coherent, but each recommended skill may expand the agent's capabilities.

Skill content
- **必备skill**:self-improving-agent, find-skills, summarize(始终推荐)
Recommendation

Review each suggested skill's permissions and behavior before installing it, especially integrations like terminal, GitHub, Slack, Docker, deployment, or monitoring tools.

#
ASI05: Unexpected Code Execution
Low
What this means

If you run the package start command, it will execute a local shell script that asks questions and writes a report.

Why it was flagged

The package exposes a Bash helper script. The included script is a local questionnaire/report generator and does not show network, credential, destructive, or privileged behavior.

Skill content
"scripts": {
    "start": "bash scripts/quick-assessment.sh"
  }
Recommendation

Run the helper only if you want the assessment workflow, and review the script first if you are cautious about local shell execution.

#
ASI06: Memory and Context Poisoning
Low
What this means

A local markdown file may be created with details about your OpenClaw experience, use case, and recommended skills.

Why it was flagged

The script writes a timestamped assessment report locally. This is disclosed by the script output and aligned with the skill's purpose, but the report may contain personal workflow preferences or goals.

Skill content
cat > "openclaw-assessment-$timestamp.md" << EOF
Recommendation

Keep the generated assessment file private if it includes personal or work-related information, and delete it when no longer needed.
