OpenClaw Safe Upgrade Rehearsal Kit

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

The skill is a coherent dry-run update rehearsal tool that avoids live mutation, with one environment-hardening issue to consider.

This is reasonable to install for dry-run OpenClaw update planning. Run it in a clean shell or CI job without unnecessary tokens in the environment, review the generated evidence before sharing it, and keep the stated stop-before-apply boundary: it does not authorize a live update.
