OKX Competition Manager

WarnAudited by ClawScan on May 10, 2026.

Overview

This skill is an autonomous OKX trading bot that openly asks for trade-capable credentials and persistent 24/7 execution, but the order-handling scripts are not included for review.

Treat this as a review-required autonomous trading setup. Start with OKX Demo only, inspect the actual Node/VBS files before running anything, restrict API keys, confirm the bot cannot withdraw funds, verify all sizing values, and know exactly how to stop the scheduler before considering live trading.

Findings (5)

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 live mode is enabled or the key is over-permissioned, the bot can place orders on the user's OKX account and cause financial loss.

Why it was flagged

The skill asks for credentials that can place trades and can be switched from demo to live mode, creating high-impact account authority.

Skill content
OKX API key with trading permissions ... OKX_API_KEY=your_api_key ... OKX_SECRET_KEY=your_secret_key ... OKX_DEMO=true   # set to false for live
Recommendation

Use demo-only keys first, keep live trading disabled unless explicitly intended, restrict API key scope and IPs, and avoid enabling withdrawal permissions.

What this means

The system can continuously open or modify positions, so a bad strategy, bad configuration, or market event could quickly create losses.

Why it was flagged

The skill is designed to place exchange orders repeatedly without per-trade approval, and it supports live trading.

Skill content
Every 5 minutes: fetch prices → calculate signals → place orders
Recommendation

Run only in demo until the full implementation is inspected, add explicit dry-run/live-mode gates, set strict exchange-side limits, and keep a documented kill switch.

What this means

Users cannot verify from this skill package whether the trading logic, credential handling, stop-loss placement, or position caps are implemented safely.

Why it was flagged

The supplied package contains none of the Node/VBS implementation that SKILL.md says will manage credentials, strategies, and trades.

Skill content
No install spec — this is an instruction-only skill. No code files present — this is an instruction-only skill.
Recommendation

Review the actual scripts before running them, pin and verify dependencies, and do not use live credentials with unreviewed local code.

What this means

The bot could continue trading after a crash, logout, or user forgets it is running.

Why it was flagged

The instructions create persistent background execution that can restart the trading process automatically.

Skill content
Create guardian.vbs for zero-flash auto-restart ... Register in Task Scheduler: every 2 minutes, run as user, run whether logged in or not.
Recommendation

Only enable the scheduler intentionally, document how to disable it, monitor it actively, and avoid combining persistent execution with live trading until fully tested.

What this means

A single incorrect contract-value setting could make automated trades larger than intended.

Why it was flagged

The skill itself warns that a configuration error can directly affect position sizing in the automated trading loop.

Skill content
Critical — wrong CT_VALS = wrong position size = losses
Recommendation

Verify CT_VALS against OKX for every asset before enabling trading, especially before any live-mode use.
