What is Skill Audit?

Skill Audit is a critical security layer for developers and users operating within the OpenClaw ecosystem. Its primary purpose is to defend against supply chain attacks by performing deep static analysis on Openclaw Skills to identify high-risk code patterns, unauthorized data exfiltration, and credential harvesting attempts.

By providing a transparent risk assessment, Skill Audit empowers users to vet third-party automations before they are granted access to sensitive local environments. This tool ensures that Openclaw Skills remain a safe and trusted extension of your AI agent's capabilities, aligning with industry-standard security practices like the OWASP LLM Top 10.

Skill Audit Use Cases

  • Verifying the safety of Openclaw Skills before performing a local installation.
  • Auditing existing Openclaw Skills for hidden backdoors or unauthorized credential access.
  • Checking remote packages on ClawHub to ensure they meet security standards.
  • Monitoring local development directories for accidental exposure of API keys or environment variables.

How Skill Audit Works

  1. The user initiates a scan using the CLI command targeting a specific skill, all installed skills, or a local directory.
  2. The auditor parses the source code of the Openclaw Skills, looking for specific functions and string patterns defined in its rule engine.
  3. Matches are categorized into three severity tiers: Critical (Red), Warning (Orange), and Info (Yellow).
  4. The tool calculates a numerical Risk Score based on the density and severity of the findings.
  5. A formatted report is outputted, providing a clear table of files, severity levels, and specific findings to the user.

Skill Audit Setup

To start auditing your Openclaw Skills, you can use the built-in CLI commands directly within your terminal or via your AI agent.

# Scan all currently installed Openclaw Skills
skill-audit scan

# Audit a specific skill by name
skill-audit scan moltdash

# Perform a pre-installation security check from ClawHub
skill-audit check some-skill

Skill Audit Data Schema & Taxonomy
