Openclaw Safety Coach

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a security coaching guide that gives defensive OpenClaw safety instructions and does not contain executable code or hidden data access.

Install this if you want stricter OpenClaw safety coaching and refusal behavior. Review suggested commands before running them, especially configuration-changing commands such as `openclaw security audit --fix`, because the skill itself does not execute them but it may recommend them.

Finding
The README states that the Safety Coach 'automatically activates when potentially unsafe requests are detected' without defining precise activation criteria, priority, or boundaries. In a safety-focused skill, ambiguous triggering can cause overbroad interception, inconsistent enforcement, or failure to engage when needed, which can be abused by adversarial prompt phrasing or lead operators to overtrust protections that are not deterministic.
