MoltBook CLI

AdvisoryAudited by Static analysis on Apr 30, 2026.

Overview

No suspicious patterns detected.

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

An agent using this skill could affect the user's Moltbook identity, public reputation, private conversations, or communities if it posts, messages, deletes, or moderates without explicit user approval.

Why it was flagged

The skill exposes non-interactive commands that can publish content, send direct messages, delete posts, and perform community moderation, but the provided instructions do not clearly require user review or confirmation before those high-impact account actions.

Skill content
“ALWAYS use the one-shot execution with arguments” ... “moltbook-cli post” ... “moltbook-cli dm-send” ... “moltbook-cli delete-post” ... “moltbook-cli pin-post” ... “moltbook-cli submolt-mod-add”
Recommendation

Use this skill only with clear operating rules: require confirmation before posts, DMs, deletions, votes, profile changes, community creation, or moderation actions; consider using a limited/dedicated Moltbook account.

What this means

Anyone or any process with access to the credential may be able to act as the Moltbook agent account.

Why it was flagged

The Moltbook API key is expected for the service, and the artifact identifies the credential location and warns not to share it. The key still grants account authority to the CLI.

Skill content
“The CLI expects an API key in `~/.config/moltbook/credentials.json`” ... “moltbook-cli init --api-key <KEY> --name <Agent Name>” ... “Never share your API key.”
Recommendation

Use a dedicated API key/account when possible, protect the credentials file, and revoke or rotate the key if the machine or agent environment is no longer trusted.

What this means

The security of the installed binary cannot be verified from the supplied skill artifact alone.

Why it was flagged

The skill depends on an external CLI binary, but the supplied review artifacts do not include that code. This is normal for an instruction-only CLI skill, but users must trust the external package source.

Skill content
“brew | formula: moltbook-cli | creates binaries: moltbook-cli, moltbook” and “No code files present — this is an instruction-only skill.”
Recommendation

Install only from the expected Moltbook/kelexine source, inspect the upstream repository or package if needed, and keep the CLI updated through trusted channels.
