Pre-installation Security Check

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This appears to be a security-review skill with no artifact-backed evidence of hidden access, persistence, data theft, or destructive behavior.

Reasonable to install if you want a skill-safety review step. Before relying on it, check that it only runs when you intend to review a ClawHub/OpenClaw skill and does not replace the platform's normal install confirmation flow.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
90% confidence
Finding
The trigger phrases "is this skill safe" and "check skill security" are broad enough to activate outside the narrow pre-install/install-review context, potentially causing this skill to intercept general security questions. Because this skill is positioned as mandatory and pre-installation focused, overbroad matching can create shadowing and unintended execution paths that affect user intent and downstream actions.

Shadow Command Trigger

Medium
Category
Trigger Abuse
Confidence
84% confidence
Finding
The skill advertises triggers including "install skill," which can conflict with a built-in install command flow and create command shadowing. In a security-gating skill, such interception is especially sensitive because it can alter normal install behavior, capture unrelated install requests, or create confusing approval loops.
