Clawhub

AdvisoryAudited by Static analysis on Apr 30, 2026.

Overview

No suspicious patterns detected.

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

A mistaken or unreviewed bulk update could change how the agent behaves in later sessions.

Why it was flagged

The skill documents a command that can update all installed skills, which is a broad mutation of the agent's local skill environment. It is purpose-aligned and presented as a user-directed command, not hidden automation.

Skill content
clawhub update --all
Recommendation

Run install or update commands only when requested, confirm the target slug or bulk update scope, and review skill changes before enabling them.

What this means

Installing or trusting an external CLI and third-party skills introduces normal supply-chain risk.

Why it was flagged

The skill relies on an external globally installed npm CLI that is not bundled or pinned in the provided artifacts. The instruction says to ask the user to install it manually and not auto-install without confirmation.

Skill content
npm i -g clawhub
Recommendation

Install the CLI only from a trusted source, keep it updated intentionally, and review ClawHub skill contents before installing or updating them.

What this means

A bad or unintended skill install could influence future OpenClaw sessions until removed or changed.

Why it was flagged

The artifacts disclose that installed workspace skills can override other skills and will be picked up in a new session, so one installed skill can affect future agent behavior.

Skill content
Workspace skills (`<workspace>/skills/`) take highest precedence over managed and bundled skills
Recommendation

Treat installed skills as persistent configuration, review them before enabling, and remove or update any skill that behaves unexpectedly.
