clawpatch-supervise

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a narrowly described guide for running a ClawPatch queue supervisor, with repository-changing behavior disclosed and scoped to explicit supervisor use.

Install this only if you intend to use ClawPatch supervisor workflows on repositories you control. Before running it, confirm the repository path, branch, push policy, and whether any reset or resume mode is appropriate.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • 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
  • Embedded Malicious CodeShips malicious scripts inside the skill and executes them locally
  • Unauthorized Access and Privilege EscalationObtains permissions beyond the task's legitimate needs
Vulnerability Patterns
  • Trigger AbuseOverly Broad Trigger, Shadow Command Trigger, Keyword Baiting Trigger
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code

Finding

The skill description is very broad ('install, run, recover, or explain') and does not define clear triggering conditions, scope limits, or exclusions. In an agent setting, this can cause the skill to activate in situations where queue supervision or repository mutation was not explicitly intended, increasing the chance of unnecessary command execution or changes to the wrong repository.
