claw-shell

claw-shell is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from xyva-yuangui/XyvaClaw. It costs 3 tokens per session (372 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A shell-command tool that runs commands inside a dedicated tmux session named claw and returns the latest terminal output. Tmux is a terminal session manager that keeps a command session running independently.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run ordinary shell commands, inspect their output, and work with tools such as Git inside the claw session.
Why use it?
It keeps these commands isolated from other tmux sessions and adds safety checks for commands that could damage the system.

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 C, and why

claw-shell scanned grade C 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 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (handler.js, scripts/check.py), 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.

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

What it actually says

claw-shell

ALWAYS USES TMUX SESSION claw.

PURPOSE

  • RUN SHELL COMMANDS INSIDE TMUX SESSION claw
  • NEVER TOUCH ANY OTHER SESSION
  • READ OUTPUT BACK TO THE AGENT

INTERFACE

Tool: claw_shell_run

Inputs:

  • command (string, required): shell command to run inside session claw.

Behavior:

  1. Attach to tmux session claw (create it if missing: tmux new -s claw -d).
  2. Send the command followed by Enter.
  3. Capture the latest pane output.
  4. Return the captured output to the agent.

SAFETY

  • DO NOT RUN:
    • sudo
    • rm (without explicit user approval)
    • reboot, shutdown, or destructive system-level commands
  • IF THE COMMAND CONTAINS ANY OF THE ABOVE:
    • ASK USER FOR CONFIRMATION BEFORE EXECUTING.

EXAMPLES

  • SAFE:

    • ls -la
    • bird read https://x.com/...
    • git status
  • DANGEROUS (ASK FIRST):

    • rm -rf ...
    • docker system prune -a
    • chmod -R ...
Files

What ships with it

6 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.
