Discord

Security checks across static analysis, malware telemetry, and agentic risk

Overview

This instruction-only Discord skill is coherent and disclosed, but using it means trusting ClawLink with delegated Discord access and approving any write or moderation actions carefully.

This skill appears safe for its stated purpose, but it is powerful: only connect Discord accounts or servers you intend OpenClaw to manage, review ClawLink permissions, and require explicit confirmation before sending messages, changing roles, moderating members, or modifying channels.

Risk analysis

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

If the user approves a write or moderation action, the agent may change Discord content, roles, channels, or commands according to the connected account’s permissions.

Why it was flagged

The skill can perform public-facing or administrative Discord actions, but it frames them as user-confirmed operations and includes preview/confirmation guidance.

Skill content
Send messages after confirmation; Manage channels, roles, and application commands when available; Moderate or update community resources with confirmation
Recommendation

Confirm previews carefully, start with read/list operations, and only approve write or moderation actions for the intended server and scope.

What this means

Connecting Discord may allow the agent, through ClawLink, to act with the permissions granted by the connected Discord account or bot configuration.

Why it was flagged

The skill relies on delegated Discord account permissions through ClawLink, which is expected for Discord management but can include substantial authority depending on granted scopes and server permissions.

Skill content
Tell the user to connect Discord at https://claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=discord ... actual availability depends on the user's connected account, permissions, scopes
Recommendation

Review Discord and ClawLink scopes before connecting, limit permissions where possible, and revoke the connection when no longer needed.

What this means

The actual Discord tools and credential handling are provided by the ClawLink plugin and service, so trust shifts to that plugin and provider.

Why it was flagged

The skill is instruction-only and depends on an external plugin installed separately. The install is user-directed and purpose-aligned, but the plugin code is not part of this artifact set.

Skill content
Install the verified ClawLink plugin: `openclaw plugins install clawhub:clawlink-plugin`
Recommendation

Install only the verified ClawLink plugin from the expected source, and review ClawLink’s verification, documentation, and source links before use.

What this means

Discord account connection details, tool requests, and some Discord data may be handled by ClawLink as part of the integration.

Why it was flagged

Discord connection and tool execution are brokered through a third-party integration hub. The data flow is disclosed and bounded to claw-link.dev, but it is still an external service boundary.

Skill content
Powered by ClawLink ... handles hosted connection flows and credentials ... The resulting device credential is stored locally in OpenClaw's plugin config and is only sent to `claw-link.dev`.
Recommendation

Use ClawLink only if you trust its service boundary, review its privacy/security materials, and avoid connecting servers or accounts with broader permissions than necessary.
