Openclaw Work Protocol

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is an instruction-only workflow skill that tells agents to plan, report progress, solve problems, and keep notes; it does not include code, install hooks, credentials, or hidden data transfer.

Install this if you want agents to follow a proactive, structured workflow. Before using it on sensitive work, set clear limits for tool use and approvals, and review any memory or learning-log files so private data is not retained unintentionally. Non-Chinese users should translate or review the protocol first because most instructions are written in Chinese.

Finding
The skill is written as a mandatory protocol for all OpenClaw agents in Chinese and does not provide any user-language negotiation, fallback, or opt-in behavior. This can override user expectations and system behavior, causing misunderstanding of safety-critical instructions, consent issues, or incorrect task execution when the user does not read Chinese.
