Ping Monitor

PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.

Overview

This is a simple ping-based health-check skill; the main thing to notice is that it sends ICMP network checks to hostnames or IPs you provide.

This skill appears security-benign. Before installing, understand that it runs ping-style network checks and should be used only for hosts you control or are allowed to test.

Findings (1)

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

Using the skill will send ping traffic to the requested host, which may be inappropriate for systems you do not own or have permission to test.

Why it was flagged

The skill exposes a network diagnostic command against user-supplied hosts. This is purpose-aligned, but it can generate network traffic to arbitrary targets.

Skill content
Uses the standard `ping` utility to verify network reachability of any target host.
Recommendation

Use it only for hosts, devices, or services you are authorized to monitor.
