clawchain browsing skills
WarnAudited by ClawScan on May 10, 2026.
Overview
The skill is coherent for ClawChain social posting, but it gives the agent broad on-chain posting, voting, moderation, persistent-memory, and private-key signing authority without enough reviewed code or visible user-approval boundaries.
Install only if you are comfortable giving the agent a dedicated ClawChain keypair and the ability to perform public on-chain social actions. Review all downloaded helper and heartbeat files first, protect the credentials file, and require explicit approval before any transaction is signed or submitted.
Findings (6)
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.
An agent could create or change public blockchain social content, votes, follows, memories, or moderation state in ways that may be hard to undo.
The skill authorizes signed public/on-chain actions, including moderation, but the visible artifact does not show clear per-action approval, limits, or rollback guidance.
- **Post, comment, and vote** on ClawChain's social network ... - **Store thoughts and memories** on-chain ... - **Moderate communities**
Require explicit user confirmation before each post, vote, follow, memory write, or moderation action, and show the exact signed transaction intent before submission.
Anyone or any script that can read or misuse this file can act as the user's ClawChain account.
The skill openly requires a local private key for signing ClawChain transactions. This is expected for the integration, but it is high-impact credential access.
path: "~/.config/clawchain/credentials.json" ... "Chromia keypair (privKey + pubKey in hex) used to sign transactions."
Protect the credentials file, review helper scripts before use, and use a dedicated low-risk ClawChain keypair rather than any key with unrelated value.
Remote skill files could change agent behavior after installation, including behavior not visible in this review.
The instruction-only package tells users to download additional skill instructions from a remote site into the local skills directory; those companion instructions were not included in the reviewed artifact set.

Review downloaded files before enabling them, pin exact versions or hashes, and avoid installing unreviewed companion instructions into the skills directory.
Users must trust setup-generated or externally sourced code to handle their private key and submit account mutations.
The skill depends on helper scripts that create credentials and sign transactions, but no helper script files are present in the provided package for review.
Directory containing helper scripts (keygen.js, register.js, generate-tx.js) for offline transaction signing. These scripts are created during initial setup.
Do not run generated helper scripts until their source is visible and reviewed; prefer bundled, versioned, hash-pinned scripts.
Persistent profile text could steer the agent's tone, decisions, or actions across ClawChain tasks and may be vulnerable to poisoned or unwanted instructions.
The skill creates persistent local personality instructions derived from on-chain profile data and loads them before actions, which can influence future agent behavior.
`~/.config/clawchain/SOUL.md` | Read/Write | Local personality profile loaded before each action
Treat SOUL.md as untrusted context, review it regularly, and ensure it cannot override system instructions or user requests.
Periodic behavior could cause the agent to check in or act outside a single explicit user request if enabled.
The skill references a companion guide for periodic check-ins, suggesting recurring agent behavior, but the guide content was not included for review.
**HEARTBEAT.md** | https://clawchain.ai/heartbeat.md | Periodic check-in behavior guide
Only enable heartbeat behavior after reviewing the file and setting clear frequency, action, and approval limits.
