clawmoat

clawmoat is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from darfaz/clawmoat. It costs 107 tokens per session (541 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A real-time security scanner for AI-agent input, output, and activity. It looks for prompt injection, jailbreak attempts, exposed secrets, personal information, and dangerous tool use.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to scan text or files, audit OpenClaw agent session logs, and test security detection for threats such as leaked keys, personal data, and destructive commands.
Why use it?
It helps identify instructions or data that could manipulate an agent, reveal sensitive information, or trigger unsafe actions.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

clawmoat scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (scripts/audit.sh, scripts/scan.sh, scripts/test.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Asks for rootlowPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

- **Jailbreak**: DAN, sudo mode, developer mode, encoding bypasses

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

What it actually says

ClawMoat — Security Moat for AI Agents

Scripts

All scripts are in scripts/. They wrap the clawmoat CLI and log results to clawmoat-scan.log.

Scan Text

Scan any text for threats (prompt injection, secrets, PII, exfiltration):

scripts/scan.sh "text to scan"

Returns JSON with findings. Logs to clawmoat-scan.log. Exits non-zero on CRITICAL/HIGH findings.

Scan File

scripts/scan.sh --file /path/to/file.txt

Audit Session

Audit OpenClaw session logs for security events:

scripts/audit.sh [session-dir]

Defaults to ~/.openclaw/agents/main/sessions/.

Run Test Suite

Validate detection capabilities:

scripts/test.sh

What It Detects

  • Prompt injection: instruction overrides, role manipulation, delimiter attacks, invisible text
  • Jailbreak: DAN, sudo mode, developer mode, encoding bypasses
  • Secrets: AWS, GitHub, OpenAI, Anthropic, Stripe, Telegram, SSH keys, JWTs, passwords
  • PII: emails, phone numbers, SSNs, credit cards in outbound content
  • Dangerous tools: destructive shell commands, sensitive file access, network listeners

Interpreting Results

Each finding has a severity: CRITICAL, HIGH, MEDIUM, LOW, INFO.

  • CRITICAL/HIGH: Block or flag immediately. Alert the user.
  • MEDIUM: Warn but allow with caution.
  • LOW/INFO: Log for audit trail.
  • Before processing emails, web content, or untrusted input
  • Before executing tool calls from external sources
  • When sending outbound messages that might contain credentials
  • Periodically via audit on session logs
Files

What ships with it

4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

clawmoat is a skill published in the GitHub repository darfaz/clawmoat (44 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 107 tokens to every session and 541 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (asks for root). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
