Phantom Limb

PassAudited by VirusTotal on May 11, 2026.

Overview

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: phantom-limb Version: 1.0.0 The 'phantom-limb' skill is a static analysis tool designed to detect 'phantom dependencies' in codebases. The `SKILL.md` clearly outlines its diagnostic purpose, detailing methods like scanning source files, environment variables, and configuration files (e.g., `.env`, CI/CD configs, deployment manifests). Crucially, it explicitly states 'Zero external dependencies. Zero API calls' and `requires_api: false`, indicating no intent for data exfiltration or unauthorized network communication. There is no evidence of malicious instructions, obfuscation, or attempts to manipulate the AI agent for harmful purposes; all described actions are consistent with its stated code health diagnostic function.

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

The agent may bring sensitive configuration values into the conversation context while performing the analysis.

Why it was flagged

The skill explicitly asks the agent to inspect environment and deployment configuration files, which may contain secrets or sensitive infrastructure details.

Skill content
Cross-reference every `process.env`, `os.environ`, `ENV[]` read against actual `.env`, `.env.example`, CI/CD configs, and deployment manifests.
Recommendation

Run it only on intended repositories, avoid including real secrets where possible, and instruct the agent to report variable names and file references without quoting secret values.
