Research Idea

PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.

Overview

This is a coherent instruction-only business-research helper that openly starts user-triggered background sessions and stores/returns results, with no artifact evidence of malicious behavior.

Before enabling it, be comfortable with background Clawdbot sessions, local storage under `~/clawd/ideas/`, web-based research, and Telegram delivery of the results. Use it in a private chat and clean up generated sessions/files if the idea is sensitive.

Findings (4)

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

A research task can continue in the background and its session history may remain available after completion.

Why it was flagged

The skill intentionally creates a background sub-agent and keeps the session record. This is disclosed and triggered by the user, but it is autonomous/persistent behavior users should notice.

Skill content
Use `sessions_spawn` to launch a background research session ... **cleanup**: keep
Recommendation

Use the trigger intentionally, monitor spawned sessions when needed, and clean up kept sessions if you do not want the history retained.

What this means

Submitted ideas and resulting analysis may remain in local files after the task finishes.

Why it was flagged

The workflow stores the idea research persistently on disk. This is expected for the skill, but the saved content may include sensitive business ideas.

Skill content
Save results to `~/clawd/ideas/<slug>/research.md`
Recommendation

Avoid entering confidential ideas unless you are comfortable with local retention, and delete the generated idea directory if you no longer need it.

What this means

Research results may be visible to anyone with access to the current chat and retained by the chat platform.

Why it was flagged

The results are routed from the background session back through the current Telegram chat. This is intended, but it affects who can see the output.

Skill content
Send the file + summary back to this Telegram chat
Recommendation

Use a private chat for sensitive business ideas and verify the target chat before triggering the skill.

What this means

Users have limited external provenance information for the skill, even though there is no executable package to inspect.

Why it was flagged

The registry metadata does not provide external provenance. Because the skill is instruction-only with no install spec or code files, this is an informational provenance note rather than a behavior concern.

Source: unknown; Homepage: none
Recommendation

Review the included instructions before enabling the AGENTS.md integration, especially if provenance matters for your environment.
