Product Idea from this Signal

A security layer that vets ClawHub skills for malware and prompt injection before your agent installs them

ClawHub grew 380% to 13,729 skills in Q1 2026. Snyk found 36% contain prompt injection and 1,467 carry malicious payloads. The ClawHavoc campaign planted 1,184 weaponized skills in the marketplace. VirusTotal integration catches known malware but misses novel prompt injection, data exfiltration via tool outputs, and social engineering patterns unique to AI agent skills. This tool performs deep behavioral analysis of every skill before installation, catching threats that signature-based scanners miss.
