Security audit

skill-scaffold

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill mostly scaffolds a ClawHub skill as described, but its example workflow can perform a real authenticated publish while presenting the step as a dry run.

Review and edit the workflow before installing or using this skill. Run a real `clawhub publish ... --dry-run` first, inspect the exact files that would be uploaded, scan for secrets, and only then run a separate explicit publish command. Consider pinning the `clawhub` CLI version instead of installing the latest global package.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Insecure DependenciesIntroduces malicious components through unsafe dependency sources
  • Insecure Skill Coding PracticesFinds exploitable flaws such as hardcoded secrets or command injection
  • Skill Instruction HijackingAlters the agent's session goals or safety constraints when the skill loads
  • Agent Memory PoisoningWrites attacker-controlled rules into memory that affect later sessions
  • Remote Payload Retrieval and ExecutionFetches external code whose behavior can change after review
