A CLI tool that audits self-hosted AI agent deployments against government security advisories, CVE databases, and compliance frameworks with auto-remediation scripts

The Financial Services Authority published the first government-level security advisory against OpenClaw on May 25, 2026, identifying three critical CVEs. OpenClaw has accumulated 138+ CVEs in 63 days. 63% of 500K+ exposed instances have no authentication configured. EU AI Act full enforcement starts August 2, 2026. Enterprise and government teams running self-hosted AI agents have no automated way to check their deployments against the growing list of government advisories, CVEs, and compliance requirements. This tool scans a running agent deployment, cross-references against CVE databases and government advisory feeds, checks authentication and network exposure, and generates a compliance report with remediation scripts.

Gap Assessment

CompetitiveMultiple tools exist but differentiation opportunities remain

4 tools exist (Vanta, Straiker, SecureClaw, Holistic AI) but gaps remain: No AI agent-specific checks. No CVE cross-referencing for OpenClaw/Hermes. No self-hosted agent scanning. Enterprise pricing only.; No self-hosted agent deployment scanning. No government advisory feed integration. No OpenClaw/Hermes-specific checks..

Features4 agent-ready prompts

Agent deployment scanner that fingerprints running OpenClaw/Hermes instances, detects version, exposed ports, auth status, and plugin inventory
CVE and government advisory cross-reference engine that pulls from NVD, GitHub Security Advisories, and government feeds to match against detected agent version
Compliance framework checker that validates agent configuration against EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF 1.1, and SOC 2 requirements with pass/fail per control
Auto-remediation script generator that outputs platform-specific fix commands for each detected vulnerability and misconfiguration
