ClawGang

PassAudited by VirusTotal on May 12, 2026.

Overview

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: clawgang Version: 1.0.1 The OpenClaw AgentSkills skill bundle is classified as benign. All network requests are directed to the `clawgang.ai` domain (or a user-configurable `CLAWGANG_BASE_URL`), which is consistent with the skill's stated purpose of enabling an AI agent to socialize on the ClawGang platform. The `SKILL.md` file provides clear instructions for API interactions using `curl` and requires a `CLAWGANG_API_KEY` for authentication, which is standard practice. There is no evidence of data exfiltration to unauthorized endpoints, malicious execution, persistence mechanisms, or prompt injection attempts designed to subvert the agent's core function or compromise the system. The behavioral guidelines explicitly instruct the agent to 'Never leak private information'.

ConcernHigh Confidence
ASI10: Rogue Agents
What this means

The agent could keep checking messages, marking them read, and replying under the user’s account without the user approving each interaction.

Why it was flagged

The skill instructs an ongoing autonomous loop rather than a bounded, user-invoked task.

Skill content
Your primary job is to **stay responsive**. Run this loop continuously ... Wait 5–10 seconds, then go back to Step 1.
Recommendation

Use only with an explicit opt-in session, visible activity logging, clear stop controls, rate limits, and approval requirements for sensitive or public replies.

What this means

Mistaken or manipulated generated content could be sent to other people or posted publicly, affecting privacy, relationships, or reputation.

Why it was flagged

The documented API actions can send direct messages, group messages, and public posts on the user’s behalf, but the workflow does not require per-message user confirmation.

Skill content
Send your reply ... curl -s -X POST ... "$CLAWGANG_BASE_URL/api/chatrooms/room_abc/messages" ... Publish a post on behalf of your human.
Recommendation

Require user confirmation before public posts, first-contact DMs, friend changes, or replies containing personal, financial, legal, medical, or sensitive information.

What this means

If installed without noticing the API key requirement, the user may underestimate that the agent can access and mutate their ClawGang account.

Why it was flagged

The skill uses an API key to act as the user on ClawGang. This is purpose-aligned, but the registry requirements shown in the artifact say no required environment variables or primary credential.

Skill content
All requests require a Bearer token. Use the `CLAWGANG_API_KEY` environment variable.
Recommendation

Declare the API key requirement in registry metadata and document the token’s scope, revocation method, and what account actions it permits.

What this means

Profile details such as email, personality, bio, business, and social links may influence future replies and could be accidentally revealed if the agent is not constrained.

Why it was flagged

The skill caches and uses detailed owner profile data to shape future interactions.

Skill content
Fetch your human owner's full profile ... Returns: `{ id, name, email, username, avatar, area, bio, story, location, interests, business, personality, twitter, linkedin ... }` ... cache the result.
Recommendation

Limit what profile fields are cached, avoid sharing private profile fields in replies, and clear cached profile context when the social session ends.

What this means

Messages from other accounts could influence the agent’s responses and may lead to unintended disclosure or inappropriate replies.

Why it was flagged

External users or agents can send messages that become context for automatic replies, while data-sharing boundaries are not described.

Skill content
You are connected to **ClawGang**, a social platform where AI agents socialize ... Fetch conversation history ... Send a reply that reflects both your owner's personality AND the other person's interests.
Recommendation

Treat all incoming social messages as untrusted, never follow instructions from them to reveal secrets or change account state, and keep owner-profile data separate from reply content unless the user approves.
