Web Fetch Fake-IP Workaround

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed, reversible workaround that locally patches older OpenClaw installs for fake-IP web_fetch failures.

Install only if you are using an older npm-global OpenClaw version affected by fake-IP web_fetch blocking. Run status and inspect before apply, confirm the target file is the expected OpenClaw runtime, keep the generated backups, and prefer the openclaw.json configuration fix on OpenClaw v2026.4.10 or later.
