Preflight Checks
PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.
Overview
This is a coherent behavior-testing skill, but it creates persistent workspace instructions and includes user-specific examples that should be reviewed before use.
This skill appears safe for its stated purpose. Before installing, verify any manual GitHub source, run scripts only in the intended workspace, review generated PRE-FLIGHT files, do not copy the Prometheus examples as-is, and set clear approval rules for messaging, public posting, and persistent memory updates.
Findings (4)
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.
Future sessions may follow whatever is written in these files; incorrect, stale, or sensitive entries can shape the agent's behavior.
The framework intentionally makes local memory and answer files recurring context for behavior verification.
After loading identity and memory (SOUL.md, USER.md, MEMORY.md, daily notes): ... Read this file completely ... Compare your answers with `PRE-FLIGHT-ANSWERS.md`
Keep the pre-flight files in a trusted workspace, review them before adding every-session integration, and avoid storing secrets or unnecessary personal data in them.
If a user adopts these example answers without customization, their agent may treat some messaging actions as pre-approved.
An included example policy allows private Telegram messages without confirmation. It is example content, not executable code, but copying it as-is could authorize outbound messaging behavior.
**NO, don't ask permission** ... Safe to do freely: send messages, test features
Customize communication checks for your own risk tolerance, and require explicit approval for public channels, third parties, or any private-channel actions you do not want automated.
Running the setup script will create or potentially overwrite local pre-flight Markdown files in the current or configured workspace.
The initialization script is user-run shell code that writes template files into the selected workspace and prompts before overwriting an existing checks file.
cp "$SKILL_DIR/templates/CHECKS-template.md" "$WORKSPACE_DIR/PRE-FLIGHT-CHECKS.md"
Run the script only from the intended workspace, review overwrite prompts, and inspect generated files before relying on them.
A manual install from the remote repository could differ from the reviewed package contents if the repository changes.
The documented manual install path retrieves a remote repository without a pinned commit. The registry metadata also lists the source as unknown and homepage as none.

Prefer the reviewed registry package or verify the repository, commit, and file contents before running its scripts.
