Context Verifier

PassAudited by VirusTotal on May 12, 2026.

Overview

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: context-verifier Version: 1.5.1 The skill is designed for file integrity verification, including hashing and creating 'context packets'. While it explicitly warns against using the `--include-content` flag with sensitive files (e.g., `.env`, credentials) and claims local-only processing without external communication, the inherent capability to read arbitrary user-specified files and write their contents to an unencrypted local JSON file (`output/context-packets/`) poses a significant risk. If an agent or user ignores the explicit warnings in `SKILL.md`, this capability could lead to unintentional exposure of sensitive data on the local filesystem. This is a critical vulnerability, but the skill's transparent documentation and warnings prevent it from being classified as malicious, as there is no evidence of intentional harmful behavior by the skill itself.

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

If you or your agent provide a sensitive path or broad glob, the skill may read files you did not mean to include.

Why it was flagged

The skill intentionally accepts arbitrary user-provided file paths for hashing and verification. This is purpose-aligned, but broad paths or globs could cause unintended local file reads.

Skill content
the skill will read ANY file path you provide to `/cv hash`, `/cv verify`, or `/cv packet`
Recommendation

Use precise file paths, avoid broad globs, and do not run it on secrets or credential files unless you intentionally want them checked.

What this means

Sensitive content could remain in your workspace if you use include-content on confidential files.

Why it was flagged

The skill creates persistent context packets, and an optional flag can store actual file contents. This is disclosed and purpose-aligned, but persistent outputs can retain sensitive data.

Skill content
Results are written to `output/context-packets/` in your workspace ... `--include-content` flag stores file contents to disk.
Recommendation

Leave include-content disabled for sensitive files, review generated packets before sharing them, and delete packets that contain private data.

What this means

There is no artifact-backed evidence of unsafe install behavior, but provenance is not fully established in the supplied metadata.

Why it was flagged

The supplied registry information does not identify a verified source, although the artifact itself contains no executable install mechanism or code files.

Skill content
Source: unknown ... No install spec — this is an instruction-only skill.
Recommendation

Install only from a trusted registry entry or verified repository, especially if you rely on it for integrity-sensitive workflows.
