Product Idea from this Signal

A CLI security scanner that intercepts and blocks malicious ClawHub skills before they compromise your OpenClaw instance

183.3k

ClawHub has 824+ malicious skills in circulation. 12% of published skills contain malicious code, supply chain rug-pulls, or data exfiltration payloads like AMOS stealer and ClawHavoc. OpenClaw's built-in VirusTotal integration only catches known signatures after publication, leaving zero-day threats and behavioral exploits wide open. This tool sits between ClawHub and your install command, running behavioral analysis, permission auditing, and network call inspection on every skill before it touches your system.
