Overview
This is a straightforward local system monitor; it runs standard shell diagnostics and may display local process, network, disk, and folder details, but the artifacts do not show credential use, exfiltration, or destructive actions.
This skill is reasonable for local system monitoring. Before installing, be aware that its outputs can include process lists, network addresses, disk usage, and home-folder names; review output before sharing it and avoid watch mode unless you intend to run a continuous monitor.
Findings (4)
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.
You are relying on the registry-provided script rather than a clearly linked upstream project, and the skill may fail on systems without the expected standard utilities.
The package has limited provenance metadata and no declared install requirements, though the complete shell script is included and no remote installer or hidden helper is shown.
Source: unknown; Homepage: none; No install spec — this is an instruction-only skill; Code file presence: scripts/monitor.sh
Review the included script before installing and prefer a package that declares its runtime requirements and upstream source.
When invoked, the skill will run commands on your machine to collect system status.
The skill directs the agent to run a bundled bash script. Shell execution is central to local system monitoring and is not hidden, but users should understand it executes local commands.
bash skills/system-monitor-1.0.0/scripts/monitor.sh status
Install only if you are comfortable with local diagnostic shell commands being run for monitoring requests.
Command output may include local system details that you may not want copied into chats, logs, or shared troubleshooting reports.
The script uses standard diagnostic tools that can reveal process command lines, home-directory folder names and sizes, network interface details, and an outbound connectivity check. These are purpose-aligned but privacy-relevant.
ps aux --sort=-%cpu | head -$((top + 1)); du -sh ~/* 2>/dev/null | sort -hr | head -5; ip addr | grep -E "inet |state"; ping -c 1 8.8.8.8
Avoid sharing raw output publicly and review process/network/disk output for sensitive details before forwarding it.
If watch mode is invoked, the command will keep running until interrupted.
Watch mode is an explicit continuous loop. It is disclosed and user-stoppable, with no evidence of hidden background persistence.
echo "Starting monitor (Ctrl+C to stop)..."; while true; do clear; system_status; sleep "$interval"; done
Use watch mode only when you want continuous monitoring and stop it with Ctrl+C when finished.
