TOSR Publish Then Update Test

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a small markdown-only integration-test skill that clearly describes creating, updating, inspecting, and deleting a test skill through the real ClawHub API.

Install or invoke this only when you intend to run a real ClawHub lifecycle test. Use test credentials where possible, verify the slug before any update or delete action, and confirm cleanup afterward.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding
The skill documentation explicitly states it performs publish, update, and delete operations against a real API, but it does not provide a clear user-facing warning that executing the skill will make live changes and delete resources. This creates a real safety issue because users or agents may run it in a non-test context without understanding that it is destructive and targets production-like external state.

Autonomous Decision Making

Medium
Category
Excessive Agency
Content
## Notes

This skill is ephemeral and will be automatically deleted after the test completes.
If you see this skill listed on clawhub, it means a test run failed to clean up properly.
