What is ClawGuard Security Checker?
ClawGuard Security Checker (CG-SC) v3 serves as a robust second line of defense for AI agents. It provides continuous security posture monitoring by performing deep configuration analysis, permission modeling, and network policy validation. By integrating this tool into your Openclaw Skills library, you ensure that your AI instances remain resilient against misconfigurations and unauthorized access.
This skill excels at identifying critical vulnerabilities, such as exposed credentials or insecure gateway bindings, and provides a structured security grade from A+ to F. The version 3 update introduces automated hardening recommendations, allowing developers to generate secure, production-ready configurations with minimal manual intervention.
ClawGuard Security Checker Use Cases
- Periodic security reviews of OpenClaw instances to maintain compliance.
- Immediate verification of security posture after making system configuration changes.
- Automated detection of exposed API keys, secrets, and sensitive tokens in environment files.
- Hardening AI agent environments that require restricted filesystem and network access.
How ClawGuard Security Checker Works
- Configuration Analysis: Parses the openclaw.json file to validate gateway settings, TLS status, and tool profiles.
- Credential Scanning: Executes a multi-layer scan across configuration, environment, and log files to detect leaked secrets.
- Permission Modeling: Evaluates file system modes for critical paths like SSH keys and configuration directories to ensure least-privilege access.
- Runtime & Network Verification: Checks port bindings and firewall rules to ensure the gateway is not exposed to public interfaces.
- Hardening Generation: Synthesizes findings into actionable recommendations and a final security score for the user.
ClawGuard Security Checker Setup
To initiate a security audit using Openclaw Skills, ensure your configuration files are located in the default directory and run the checker:
# Standard security check
node cli.js --check-security
# Run with automatic hardening recommendations
node cli.js --fix
ClawGuard Security Checker Data Schema & Taxonomy
The skill analyzes and generates data based on the following taxonomy:
| Data Type | Description | Key Metadata |
|---|---|---|
| Configuration | openclaw.json validation | Gateway bind, TLS, Auth mode |
| Credentials | Pattern-based secret detection | OpenAI keys, AWS keys, Private keys |
| Permissions | Octal mode verification | 600 (files), 700 (directories) |
| Scoring | Security Performance Index | Points deducted based on severity (CRITICAL to MEDIUM) |
| Hardening | Proposed config state | Remediation steps and secure JSON snippets |
ClawGuard Security Checker Advanced Features
- One-Click Hardening: Automated generation of a secure configuration based on detected vulnerabilities.
- Quantum-Resistant Hashing: SHA-256 and advanced hashes for verifying runtime integrity.
- AI-Powered Log Forensics: Detection of anomalies within audit logs to identify potential breach attempts.
- Multi-Layered Sandbox Enforcement: Granular control over allowed/denied paths and execution timeouts for AI tools.
