Openclaw Api Reference

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a documentation-only OpenClaw API reference; it includes examples for sensitive API operations, but they are disclosed and not executed by the skill itself.

Install this as a reference document, not as an automation tool. Before running examples against a real OpenClaw instance, verify the server, protect API keys and JWTs, and treat delete, config update, webhook creation, user creation, and script-based skill creation endpoints as privileged operations that should require trusted users and review.

Finding
The API reference explicitly documents creating a skill with a raw script field using an example shell command, but provides no warning that such content may be executed on the host. In a system that supports running created skills, this normalizes arbitrary command execution and can lead to remote code execution, persistence, or data compromise if exposed to untrusted users.
