What is URLCheck Security & Intent Verifier?

URLCheck is a sophisticated security companion designed for AI agents operating within the ecosystem of Openclaw Skills. It goes beyond simple blacklisting by analyzing target web resources for phishing, malware, and suspicious patterns in real-time. The skill acts as a critical gatekeeper, ensuring that any URL an agent encounters is thoroughly vetted before the agent takes further action like clicking, navigating, or downloading files.

Its standout feature is intent-aware verification, which evaluates whether a destination URL actually aligns with the user's stated goals. By integrating this into your set of Openclaw Skills, you empower agents to detect "mismatch" scenarios where a site might be technically safe but contextually wrong for the user's objective, such as a legitimate site that isn't the specific login portal the user intended to use.

URLCheck Security & Intent Verifier Use Cases

  • Verifying links discovered during web research before an agent navigates to them.
  • Validating login pages before an agent attempts to submit user credentials.
  • Checking file download links for potential malware or security threats.
  • Ensuring a redirect chain leads to a legitimate destination consistent with user intent.
  • Assessing third-party payment or booking sites for alignment with the user's purchase goals.

How URLCheck Security & Intent Verifier Works

  1. The agent identifies a target URL and captures the user's specific intent (e.g., "log in to my account").
  2. The url_scanner_scan_with_intent tool is invoked to perform a deep analysis of the resource.
  3. The system evaluates the URL for both technical threats (risk score) and contextual alignment (intent alignment).
  4. A structured directive such as ALLOW, DENY, or RETRY_LATER is returned to the agent along with a detailed access reason.
  5. The agent follows the directive, either proceeding with navigation or warning the user based on the security findings provided by these Openclaw Skills.

URLCheck Security & Intent Verifier Setup

Install the required plugin using the CLI to enable these Openclaw Skills functionality:

openclaw plugins install @cybrlab/urlcheck-openclaw
openclaw gateway restart

Verify that the plugin and skill are active:

openclaw plugins list | grep -i urlcheck
openclaw skills list | grep -i urlcheck

Ensure the configuration plugins.entries.urlcheck-openclaw.enabled is set to true in your settings.

URLCheck Security & Intent Verifier Data Schema & Taxonomy

The skill returns structured payloads containing security metrics and access directives. Use the following fields to inform agent logic:

Field Description Type
agent_access_directive Primary action command (ALLOW, DENY, RETRY_LATER) String
risk_score Probability of threat (0.0 to 1.0; lower is safer) Float
intent_alignment Alignment signal (misaligned, no_mismatch_detected, etc.) String
confidence Certainty of the analysis (0.0 to 1.0) Float
analysis_complete Boolean indicating if the full scan finished Boolean

URLCheck Security & Intent Verifier Advanced Features

  • Intent-aware verification to detect legitimate sites that do not match specific user goals.
  • Non-blocking asynchronous workflows using task handles for handling long-running scans without freezing agent execution.
  • Comprehensive task lifecycle management including status polling, result retrieval, and task cancellation.
  • Detailed risk and confidence scoring for nuanced agent decision-making within the Openclaw Skills framework.
  • Fallback mechanisms that prevent unsafe navigation if the verification service is temporarily unavailable.
