## 🦞 What is ClawSec?

ClawSec is a **complete security skill suite for AI agent platforms**. It provides unified security monitoring, integrity verification, and threat intelligence-protecting your agent's cognitive architecture against prompt injection, drift, and malicious instructions.

### Supported Platforms

- **OpenClaw** (MoltBot, Clawdbot, and clones) - Full suite with skill installer, file integrity protection, and security audits
- **NanoClaw** - Containerized WhatsApp bot security with MCP tools for advisory monitoring, signature verification, and file integrity
- **Hermes** - Hermes-native security skills for signed advisory feed verification, advisory-aware guarded verification, deterministic attestation generation, fail-closed verification, and baseline drift detection
- **Picoclaw** - Lightweight AI gateway security posture checks with advisory awareness, config drift detection, release-artifact verification, and an optional separate self-pen-testing package

### Skill Feature Matrix

| Skill name | supported platform| security feed verification| config drift | agent self pen testing| supply-chain install verification | runtime traffic monitoring |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| claw-release | OpenClaw | No | No | No | Yes | No |
| clawsec-clawhub-checker | OpenClaw + clawsec-suite integration | No | No | No | Yes | No |
| clawsec-feed | OpenClaw | Yes | No | No | Yes | No |
| clawsec-nanoclaw | NanoClaw | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | No |
| clawsec-scanner | OpenClaw | Yes | No | Yes | Yes | No |
| clawsec-suite | OpenClaw | Yes | Yes | No | Yes | No |
| clawtributor | OpenClaw | Yes | No | No | No | No |
| hermes-attestation-guardian | Hermes | Yes (signed advisory feed verification) | Yes | No | Limited (advisory preflight gating only; no artifact signature/provenance install verification) | No |
| hermes-traffic-guardian | Hermes | No | Planned posture export only | No | No | Spec baseline |
| nanoclaw-traffic-guardian | NanoClaw | No | No | No | No | Spec baseline |
| openclaw-audit-watchdog | OpenClaw | No | No | Yes | No | No |
| openclaw-traffic-guardian | OpenClaw | No | No | No | No | Spec baseline |
| picoclaw-security-guardian | Picoclaw | Yes | Yes | No | Yes | No |
| picoclaw-self-pen-testing | Picoclaw | No | No | Yes | No | No |
| picoclaw-traffic-guardian | Picoclaw | No | Planned profile export only | No | No | Spec baseline |
| soul-guardian | OpenClaw | No | Yes | No | No | No |

`Spec baseline` means the skill folder, metadata, frontmatter, and implementation contract exist, but runtime proxy code is intentionally left for platform-specific builders.

### Core Capabilities

- **📦 Suite Installer** - One-command installation of all security skills with integrity verification
- **🛡️ File Integrity Protection** - Drift detection and auto-restore for critical agent files (SOUL.md, IDENTITY.md, etc.)
- **📡 Live Security Advisories** - Automated NVD CVE polling and community threat intelligence
- **🔍 Security Audits** - Self-check scripts to detect prompt injection markers and vulnerabilities
- **🔐 Checksum Verification** - SHA256 checksums for all skill artifacts
- **Runtime Traffic Monitoring Baselines** - Platform-specific specs for opt-in proxy inspection, exfiltration detection, and inbound injection detection
- **Health Checks** - Automated updates and integrity verification for all installed skills

## 🚀 Quick Start

### For AI Agents

```bash
# Install the ClawSec security suite
npx clawhub@latest install clawsec-suite
```

After install, the suite can:
1. Discover installable protections from the published skills catalog
2. Verify release integrity using signed checksums
3. Set up advisory monitoring and hook-based protection flows
4. Add optional scheduled checks

Manual/source-first option:

> Read https://github.com/prompt-security/clawsec/releases/latest/download/SKILL.md and follow the installation instructions.

### For Humans

Copy this instruction to your AI agent:

> Install ClawSec with `npx clawhub@latest install clawsec-suite`, then complete the setup steps from the generated instructions.

### Shell and OS Notes

ClawSec scripts are split between:
- Cross-platform Node/Python tooling (`npm run build`, hook/setup `.mjs`, `utils/*.py`)
- POSIX shell workflows (`*.sh`, most manual install snippets)

For Linux/macOS (`bash`/`zsh`):
- Use unquoted or double-quoted home vars: `export INSTALL_ROOT="$HOME/.openclaw/skills"`
- Do **not** single-quote expandable vars (for example, avoid `'$HOME/.openclaw/skills'`)

For Windows (PowerShell):
- Prefer explicit path building:
  - `$env:INSTALL_ROOT = Join-Path $HOME ".openclaw\\skills"`
  - `node "$env:INSTALL_ROOT\\clawsec-suite\\scripts\\setup_advisory_hook.mjs"`
- POSIX `.sh` scripts require WSL or Git Bash.

Troubleshooting: if you see directories such as `~/.openclaw/workspace/$HOME/...`, a home variable was passed literally. Re-run using an absolute path or an unquoted home expression.

## 📡 Security Advisory Feed

ClawSec maintains a continuously updated security advisory feed, automatically populated from NIST's National Vulnerability Database (NVD).

### Feed URL

```bash
# Fetch latest advisories
curl -s https://clawsec.prompt.security/advisories/feed.json | jq '.advisories[] | select(.severity == "critical" or .severity == "high")'
```

Canonical endpoint: `https://clawsec.prompt.security/advisories/feed.json`  
Compatibility mirror (legacy): `https://clawsec.prompt.security/releases/latest/download/feed.json`

### Monitored Keywords

The feed polls CVEs related to:
- **OpenClaw Platform**: `OpenClaw`, `clawdbot`, `Moltbot`
- **NanoClaw Platform**: `NanoClaw`, `WhatsApp-bot`, `baileys`
- **Picoclaw Platform**: `Picoclaw`, `picoclaw`, lightweight AI gateways, MCP gateway exposure
- Prompt injection patterns
- Agent security vulnerabilities

### Exploitability Context

ClawSec enriches CVE advisories with **exploitability context** to help agents assess real-world risk beyond raw CVSS scores. Newly analyzed advisories can include:

- **Exploit Evidence**: Whether public exploits exist in the wild
- **Weaponization Status**: If exploits are integrated into common attack frameworks
- **Attack Requirements**: Prerequisites needed for successful exploitation (network access, authentication, user interaction)
- **Risk Assessment**: Contextualized risk level combining technical severity with exploitability

This feature helps agents prioritize vulnerabilities that pose immediate threats versus theoretical risks, enabling smarter security decisions.

## 🛠️ Offline Tools

ClawSec includes Python utilities for local skill development and validation.

### Skill Validator

Validates a skill folder against the required schema:

```bash
python utils/validate_skill.py skills/clawsec-feed
```

Checks:
- `skill.json` exists and is valid JSON
- Required fields present (name, version, description, author, license)
- SBOM files exist and are readable
- OpenClaw metadata is properly structured

### Skill Checksums Generator

Generates `checksums.json` with SHA256 hashes for a skill:

```bash
python utils/package_skill.py skills/clawsec-feed ./dist
```

Outputs:
- `checksums.json` - SHA256 hashes for verification

---

## 🛠️ Local Development

### Prerequisites

- Node.js 20+
- Python 3.10+ (for offline tools)
- npm

### Setup

```bash
# Install dependencies
npm install

# Start development server
npm run dev
```

### Populate Local Data

```bash
# Populate skills catalog from local skills/ directory
./scripts/populate-local-skills.sh

# Populate advisory feed with real NVD CVE data
./scripts/populate-local-feed.sh --days 120

# Generate wiki llms exports from wiki/ (for local preview)
./scripts/populate-local-wiki.sh

# Direct generator entrypoint (used by predev/prebuild)
npm run gen:wiki-llms
```

Notes:
- `npm run dev` and `npm run build` automatically regenerate wiki `llms.txt` exports (`predev`/`prebuild` hooks).
- `public/wiki/` is generated output (local + CI) and is intentionally gitignored.

### Build

```bash
npm run build
```

## 📚 Documentation Source of Truth

For all wiki content, edit files under `wiki/` in this repository. The GitHub Wiki (`<repo>.wiki.git`) is synced from `wiki/` by `.github/workflows/wiki-sync.yml` when `wiki/**` changes on `main`.

LLM exports are generated from `wiki/` into `public/wiki/`:
- `/wiki/llms.txt` is the LLM-ready export for `wiki/INDEX.md` (or a generated fallback index if `INDEX.md` is missing).
- `/wiki/<page>/llms.txt` is the LLM-ready export for that single wiki page.
