+- Converted setup flow to non-mutating preflight validation; the skill no longer rewrites or copies files into installed `clawsec-suite` directories.

 # ClawSec ClawHub Checker
 
-A ClawSec suite skill that enhances the guarded skill installer with ClawHub reputation checks and VirusTotal Code Insight integration.
+A `clawsec-suite` companion skill that adds a standalone reputation gate before guarded installs.
+
+## Operational Notes
+
+- Required runtime: `node`, `clawhub`, `openclaw`
+- Dependency: installed `clawsec-suite`
+- No in-place mutation of other skills
+- Advisory-hook wiring is optional and manual in this release
+- Reputation checks query ClawHub metadata and remain confirmation-gated
 
 ## Purpose
 
-Adds a second layer of security to skill installation by:
-1. Checking ClawHub's VirusTotal Code Insight reputation scores
-2. Analyzing skill age, author reputation, and download statistics
-3. Requiring double confirmation for suspicious skills
-4. Integrating with existing ClawSec advisory checks
+Adds a second risk signal before install by:
 
-## Architecture
-
-```
-clawsec-suite (base)
-└── clawsec-clawhub-checker (enhancement)
-    ├── enhanced_guarded_install.mjs - Main enhanced installer
-    ├── check_clawhub_reputation.mjs - Reputation checking logic
-    ├── setup_reputation_hook.mjs - Integration script
-    └── hooks/ - Enhanced advisory guardian hook
-```
+1. Reading ClawHub inspect/security metadata
+2. Applying reputation heuristics (age, updates, author activity, downloads)
+3. Requiring `--confirm-reputation` for low-score installs
 
 ## Installation
 
 ```bash
-# First install the base suite
 npx clawhub install clawsec-suite
-
-# Then install the checker
 npx clawhub install clawsec-clawhub-checker
-
-# Run setup to integrate with existing suite
-node scripts/setup_reputation_hook.mjs
-
-# Restart OpenClaw gateway
-openclaw gateway restart
 ```
 
-Setup installs these scripts into `clawsec-suite/scripts`:
-- `enhanced_guarded_install.mjs`
-- `guarded_skill_install_wrapper.mjs` (drop-in wrapper)
-- `check_clawhub_reputation.mjs`
+Optional preflight helper:
 
-The original `guarded_skill_install.mjs` remains unchanged.
+```bash
+node ~/.openclaw/skills/clawsec-clawhub-checker/scripts/setup_reputation_hook.mjs
+```
 
 ## Usage
 
-### Enhanced Guarded Installer
-
 ```bash
-# Basic usage via wrapper (includes reputation checks)
-node scripts/guarded_skill_install_wrapper.mjs --skill some-skill --version 1.0.0
-
-# Direct usage (enhanced script)
-node scripts/enhanced_guarded_install.mjs --skill some-skill --version 1.0.0
-
-# With reputation confirmation override
-node scripts/guarded_skill_install_wrapper.mjs --skill suspicious-skill --version 1.0.0 --confirm-reputation
-
-# Adjust reputation threshold (default: 70)
-node scripts/guarded_skill_install_wrapper.mjs --skill some-skill --reputation-threshold 80
+node ~/.openclaw/skills/clawsec-clawhub-checker/scripts/enhanced_guarded_install.mjs \
+  --skill some-skill \
+  --version 1.0.0
 ```
 
-### Reputation Check Only
+Override only after manual review:
 
 ```bash
-# Check reputation without installation
-node scripts/check_clawhub_reputation.mjs some-skill 1.0.0 70
+node ~/.openclaw/skills/clawsec-clawhub-checker/scripts/enhanced_guarded_install.mjs \
+  --skill some-skill \
+  --version 1.0.0 \
+  --confirm-reputation
 ```
 
+## Optional Advisory-Hook Wiring
+
+If you need advisory alerts to include `reputationWarning` / `reputationWarnings`, wire the checker module manually into the installed suite hook:
+
+- Source: `~/.openclaw/skills/clawsec-clawhub-checker/hooks/clawsec-advisory-guardian/lib/reputation.mjs`
+- Target: `~/.openclaw/skills/clawsec-suite/hooks/clawsec-advisory-guardian/handler.ts`
+
+The setup helper validates paths only and does not patch these files automatically.
+
 ## Exit Codes
 
-- `0` - Safe to install
-- `42` - Advisory match found (requires `--confirm-advisory`)
-- `43` - Reputation warning (requires `--confirm-reputation`) - **NEW**
-- `1` - Error
-
-## Reputation Signals Checked
-
-1. **VirusTotal Code Insight** - Malicious code patterns
-2. **Skill Age** - New skills (<7 days) are riskier
-3. **Author Reputation** - Number of published skills
-4. **Update Frequency** - Stale skills (>90 days)
-5. **Download Statistics** - Low download counts
-6. **Version Existence** - Specified version availability
+- `0` safe to install
+- `42` advisory confirmation required
+- `43` reputation confirmation required
+- `1` error
 
 ## Configuration
 
-Environment variables:
-- `CLAWHUB_REPUTATION_THRESHOLD` - Minimum score (0-100, default: 70)
-
-## Integration Points
-
-1. **Enhanced `guarded_skill_install.mjs`** - Wraps original with reputation checks
-   via `guarded_skill_install_wrapper.mjs` and `enhanced_guarded_install.mjs`
-2. **Updated advisory guardian hook** - Adds reputation warnings to alerts
-3. **Catalog entry in clawsec-suite** - Listed as available enhancement

 ## Security Considerations
 
-- Reputation checks are **heuristic**, not definitive
-- **False positives** possible with legitimate novel skills

 # ClawSec ClawHub Checker
 
-Enhances the ClawSec suite's guarded skill installer with ClawHub reputation checks. Adds a second layer of security by checking VirusTotal Code Insight scores and other reputation signals before allowing skill installation.
+Adds a reputation gate on top of the `clawsec-suite` guarded installer.
+
+## Operational Notes
+
+- Required runtime: `node`, `clawhub`, `openclaw`
+- Depends on: installed `clawsec-suite`
+- Side effects: none on other skills; this package does not rewrite installed suite files
+- Advisory-hook wiring is optional and manual in this release
+- Network behavior: reputation checks call ClawHub inspect/search endpoints
+- Trust model: scores are heuristic and confirmation-gated
 
 ## What It Does
 
-1. **Wraps `clawhub install`** - Intercepts skill installation requests
-2. **Checks VirusTotal reputation** - Uses ClawHub's built-in VirusTotal Code Insight
-3. **Adds double confirmation** - For suspicious skills (reputation score below threshold)
-4. **Integrates with advisory feed** - Works alongside existing clawsec-suite advisories
-5. **Provides detailed reports** - Shows why a skill is flagged as suspicious
+1. Reads skill metadata from ClawHub (`inspect --json`)
+2. Evaluates scanner status (including VirusTotal summary when present)
+3. Applies additional reputation heuristics (age, updates, author history, downloads)
+4. Requires explicit `--confirm-reputation` when score is below threshold
 
 ## Installation
 
-This skill must be installed **after** `clawsec-suite`:
+Install after `clawsec-suite`:
 
 ```bash
-# First install the suite
 npx clawhub@latest install clawsec-suite
-
-# Then install the checker
 npx clawhub@latest install clawsec-clawhub-checker
-
-# Run the setup script to integrate with clawsec-suite
-node ~/.openclaw/skills/clawsec-clawhub-checker/scripts/setup_reputation_hook.mjs
-
-# Restart OpenClaw gateway for changes to take effect
-openclaw gateway restart
 ```
 
-After setup, the checker adds `enhanced_guarded_install.mjs` and
-`guarded_skill_install_wrapper.mjs` under `clawsec-suite/scripts` and updates the advisory
-guardian hook. The original `guarded_skill_install.mjs` is not replaced.
+Optional preflight check (validates local paths and prints recommended command):
 
-## How It Works
-
-### Enhanced Guarded Installer
-
-After setup, run the wrapper (drop-in path) or the enhanced script directly:
 ```bash
-# Recommended drop-in wrapper
-node scripts/guarded_skill_install_wrapper.mjs --skill some-skill --version 1.0.0
-
-# Or call the enhanced script directly
-node scripts/enhanced_guarded_install.mjs --skill some-skill --version 1.0.0
+node ~/.openclaw/skills/clawsec-clawhub-checker/scripts/setup_reputation_hook.mjs
 ```
 
-The enhanced flow:
-1. **Advisory check** (existing) - Checks clawsec advisory feed
-2. **Reputation check** (new) - Queries ClawHub for VirusTotal scores
-3. **Risk assessment** - Combines advisory + reputation signals
-4. **Double confirmation** - If risky, requires explicit `--confirm-reputation`
+## Usage
 
-### Reputation Signals Checked
+Run the enhanced installer directly from this skill:
 
-1. **VirusTotal Code Insight** - Malicious code patterns, external dependencies (Docker usage, network calls, eval usage, crypto keys)
-2. **Skill age & updates** - New skills vs established ones
-3. **Author reputation** - Other skills by same author
-4. **Download statistics** - Popularity signals
+```bash
+node ~/.openclaw/skills/clawsec-clawhub-checker/scripts/enhanced_guarded_install.mjs \
+  --skill some-skill \
+  --version 1.0.0
+```
 
-### Exit Codes
+If a skill is below threshold, rerun only with explicit approval:
 
-- `0` - Safe to install (no advisories, good reputation)
-- `42` - Advisory match found (existing behavior)
-- `43` - Reputation warning (new - requires `--confirm-reputation`)
-- `1` - Error
+```bash
+node ~/.openclaw/skills/clawsec-clawhub-checker/scripts/enhanced_guarded_install.mjs \
+  --skill some-skill \
+  --version 1.0.0 \
+  --confirm-reputation
+```
+
+## Optional Advisory-Hook Wiring (Manual)
+
+This release does not auto-patch `clawsec-suite` hook files.  
+If you rely on advisory alerts that include `reputationWarning` / `reputationWarnings`, wire the checker module manually:
+
+- Source module: `~/.openclaw/skills/clawsec-clawhub-checker/hooks/clawsec-advisory-guardian/lib/reputation.mjs`
+- Target hook file: `~/.openclaw/skills/clawsec-suite/hooks/clawsec-advisory-guardian/handler.ts`
+
+Treat that wiring as a deliberate local customization and review it before enabling.
+
+## Exit Codes
+
+- `0` safe to install
+- `42` advisory confirmation required (from clawsec-suite)
+- `43` reputation confirmation required
+- `1` error
 
 ## Configuration
 
 Environment variables:
-- `CLAWHUB_REPUTATION_THRESHOLD` - Minimum reputation score (0-100, default: 70)
 
-## Integration with Existing Suite
-
-The checker enhances but doesn't replace existing security:
-- **Advisory feed still primary** - Known malicious skills blocked first
-- **Reputation is secondary** - Unknown/suspicious skills get extra scrutiny
-- **Double confirmation preserved** - Both layers require explicit user approval
-
-## Example Usage
-
-```bash
-# Try to install a skill
-node scripts/guarded_skill_install_wrapper.mjs --skill suspicious-skill --version 1.0.0
-
-# Output might show:
-# WARNING: Skill "suspicious-skill" has low reputation score (45/100)
-# - Flagged by VirusTotal Code Insight: crypto keys, external APIs, eval usage
-# - Author has no other published skills
-# - Skill is less than 7 days old
-# 
-# To install despite reputation warning, run:
-# node scripts/guarded_skill_install_wrapper.mjs --skill suspicious-skill --version 1.0.0 --confirm-reputation
-
-# Install with confirmation
-node scripts/guarded_skill_install_wrapper.mjs --skill suspicious-skill --version 1.0.0 --confirm-reputation
-```
+- `CLAWHUB_REPUTATION_THRESHOLD` - Minimum score (0-100, default: 70)
 
 ## Safety Notes
 
-- This is a **defense-in-depth** layer, not a replacement for advisory feeds
-- VirusTotal scores are **heuristic**, not definitive
-- **False positives possible** - Legitimate skills with novel patterns might be flagged
-- Always **review skill code** before installing with `--confirm-reputation`
-
-## Current Limitations
-
-### Missing OpenClaw Internal Check Data
-ClawHub shows two security badges on skill pages:
-1. **VirusTotal Code Insight** - ✅ Our checker catches these flags
-2. **OpenClaw internal check** - ❌ Not exposed via API (only on website)
-
-Example from `clawsec-suite` page:
-- VirusTotal: "Benign" ✓
-- OpenClaw internal check: "The package is internally consistent with a feed-monitoring / advisory-guardian purpose, but a few operational details and optional bypasses deserve attention before installing."
-
-**Our checker cannot access OpenClaw internal check warnings** as they're not exposed via `clawhub` CLI or API.
-
-### Recommendation for ClawHub
-To enable complete reputation checking, ClawHub should expose internal check results via:
-- `clawhub inspect --json` endpoint
-- Additional API field for security tools
-- Or include in `clawhub install` warning output
-
-### Workaround
-Our heuristic checks (skill age, author reputation, downloads, updates) provide similar risk assessment but miss specific operational warnings about bypasses, missing signatures, etc. Always check the ClawHub website for complete security assessment.
+- This is defense-in-depth, not a replacement for advisory matching
+- Scanner outputs can produce false positives and false negatives
+- Always review skill code before overriding warnings
 
 ## Development
 
-To modify the reputation checking logic, edit:
-- `scripts/enhanced_guarded_install.mjs` - Main enhanced installer
-- `scripts/check_clawhub_reputation.mjs` - Reputation checking logic
-- `hooks/clawsec-advisory-guardian/lib/reputation.mjs` - Hook integration

+## [0.0.4] - 2026-04-16
+
+### Changed
+
+- Moved signature-related local file reads into `lib/local_file_io.ts` and kept network fetch logic isolated in `lib/signatures.ts`.
+
+### Security
+
+- Reduced static false-positive exfiltration signals by separating local file I/O and remote fetch code paths.
+
+## [0.0.3] - 2026-03-09
+
+### Security
+
+- Removed runtime public-key override from host-side package signature verification; verification now always uses the pinned ClawSec key.
+- Removed unsigned-package override path in host-side verification flow.
+- Added strict package/signature path policy for signature verification (`/tmp`, `/var/tmp`, `/workspace/ipc`, `/workspace/project/data`, `/workspace/project/tmp`, `/workspace/project/downloads`) with absolute-path, extension, symlink, and realpath boundary checks.
+- Added policy-bound path enforcement for integrity approvals: approvals now require normalized paths that are explicitly present in non-ignored integrity policy targets.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Updated MCP signature verification tool docs and behavior to align with bounded path policy and pinned-key-only verification.

-// Load custom public key
-const customPublicKey = fs.readFileSync('/path/to/org-public.pem', 'utf8');
-
-// Verify with custom key (not pinned ClawSec key)
-const verification = await tools.clawsec_verify_skill_package({
-  packagePath: '/tmp/org-skill.tar.gz',
-  publicKeyPath: '/path/to/org-public.pem'  // Custom key
-});
-```
-
-**Note**: The MCP tool currently uses the pinned key. Custom key support via `publicKeyPem` parameter requires host-side implementation.
+The verifier always uses the pinned ClawSec public key from this skill package.
+Runtime public-key overrides are intentionally not supported.

+# ClawSec Scanner
+
+Comprehensive security scanner for agent platforms that automates vulnerability detection across multiple dimensions:
+
+- **Dependency Scanning**: Analyzes npm and Python dependencies using `npm audit` and `pip-audit` with structured JSON output parsing
+- **CVE Database Integration**: Queries OSV (primary), NVD 2.0, and GitHub Advisory Database for vulnerability enrichment
+- **SAST Analysis**: Static code analysis using Semgrep (JavaScript/TypeScript) and Bandit (Python) to detect hardcoded secrets, command injection, path traversal, and unsafe deserialization
+- **DAST Framework**: Agent-specific dynamic analysis with real OpenClaw hook execution harness (malicious input, timeout, output bounds, event mutation safety)
+- **Unified Reporting**: Consolidated vulnerability reports with severity classification and remediation guidance
+- **Continuous Monitoring**: OpenClaw hook integration for automated periodic scanning
+
+## Features
+
+### Multi-Engine Scanning
+
+The scanner orchestrates four complementary scan types to provide comprehensive vulnerability coverage:
+
+1. **Dependency Scanning**
+   - Executes `npm audit --json` and `pip-audit -f json` as subprocesses
+   - Parses structured output to extract CVE IDs, severity, affected versions
+   - Handles edge cases: missing package-lock.json, zero vulnerabilities, malformed JSON
+
+2. **CVE Database Queries**
+   - **OSV API** (primary): Free, no authentication, broad ecosystem support (npm, PyPI, Go, Maven)
+   - **NVD 2.0** (optional): Requires API key to avoid 6-second rate limiting
+   - **GitHub Advisory Database** (optional): GraphQL API with OAuth token
+   - Normalizes all API responses to unified `Vulnerability` schema
+
+3. **Static Analysis (SAST)**
+   - **Semgrep** for JavaScript/TypeScript: Detects security issues using `--config auto` or `--config p/security-audit`
+   - **Bandit** for Python: Leverages existing `pyproject.toml` configuration
+   - Identifies: hardcoded secrets (API keys, tokens), command injection (`eval`, `exec`), path traversal, unsafe deserialization
+
+4. **Dynamic Analysis (DAST)**
+   - Real hook execution harness for OpenClaw hook handlers discovered from `HOOK.md` metadata
+   - Verifies: malicious input resilience, timeout behavior, output amplification bounds, and core event mutation safety
+   - Note: Traditional web DAST tools (ZAP, Burp) do not apply to agent platforms - this provides agent-specific testing
+
+### Unified Reporting
+
+All scan types emit a consistent `ScanReport` JSON schema:
+
+```typescript
+{
+  scan_id: string;         // UUID
+  timestamp: string;       // ISO 8601
+  target: string;          // Scanned path
+  vulnerabilities: Vulnerability[];
+  summary: {
+    critical: number;
+    high: number;
+    medium: number;
+    low: number;
+    info: number;
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Each `Vulnerability` object includes:
+- `id`: CVE-2023-12345 or GHSA-xxxx-yyyy-zzzz
+- `source`: npm-audit | pip-audit | osv | nvd | github | sast | dast
+- `severity`: critical | high | medium | low | info
+- `package`: Package name (or 'N/A' for SAST/DAST)
+- `version`: Affected version
+- `fixed_version`: First version with fix (if available)
+- `title`: Short description
+- `description`: Full advisory text
+- `references`: URLs for more info
+- `discovered_at`: ISO 8601 timestamp
+
+### OpenClaw Integration
+
+Automated continuous monitoring via hook:
+
+- Runs scanner on configurable interval (default: 86400s / 24 hours)
+- Triggers on `agent:bootstrap` and `command:new` events
+- Posts findings to `event.messages` array with severity summary
+- Rate-limited by `CLAWSEC_SCANNER_INTERVAL` environment variable

+
+## Usage
+
+### On-Demand CLI Scanning
+
+```bash
+SCANNER_DIR="${INSTALL_ROOT:-$HOME/.openclaw/skills}/clawsec-scanner"
+
+# Scan all skills with JSON output
+"$SCANNER_DIR/scripts/runner.sh" --target ./skills/ --output report.json --format json
+
+# Scan specific directory with human-readable output
+"$SCANNER_DIR/scripts/runner.sh" --target ./my-skill/ --format text
+
+# Check available flags
+"$SCANNER_DIR/scripts/runner.sh" --help
+```
+
+**CLI Flags:**
+- `--target <path>`: Directory to scan (required)
+- `--output <file>`: Write results to file (optional, defaults to stdout)
+- `--format <json|text>`: Output format (default: json)
+- `--check`: Verify all required binaries are installed
+
+### OpenClaw Hook Setup (Continuous Monitoring)
+
+Enable automated periodic scanning:
+
+```bash
+SCANNER_DIR="${INSTALL_ROOT:-$HOME/.openclaw/skills}/clawsec-scanner"
+node "$SCANNER_DIR/scripts/setup_scanner_hook.mjs"
+```
+
+This creates a hook that:
+- Scans on `agent:bootstrap` and `command:new` events
+- Respects `CLAWSEC_SCANNER_INTERVAL` rate limiting (default: 86400 seconds / 24 hours)
+- Posts findings to conversation with severity summary
+- Recommends remediation for high/critical vulnerabilities
+
+Restart the OpenClaw gateway after enabling the hook, then run `/new` to trigger an immediate scan.
+
+### Environment Variables
+
+```bash
+# Optional - NVD API key to avoid rate limiting (6-second delays without key)
+export CLAWSEC_NVD_API_KEY="your-nvd-api-key"
+
+# Optional - GitHub OAuth token for Advisory Database queries
+export GITHUB_TOKEN="ghp_your_token_here"
+
+# Optional - Scanner hook interval in seconds (default: 86400 / 24 hours)
+export CLAWSEC_SCANNER_INTERVAL="86400"
+
+# Optional - Allow unsigned advisory feed during development (from clawsec-suite)
+export CLAWSEC_ALLOW_UNSIGNED_FEED="1"
+```
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Modular Design
+
+Each scan type is an independent module that can run standalone or as part of unified scan:
+
+```
+scripts/runner.sh              # Orchestration layer
+├── scan_dependencies.mjs      # npm audit + pip-audit
+├── query_cve_databases.mjs    # OSV/NVD/GitHub API queries
+├── sast_analyzer.mjs          # Semgrep + Bandit static analysis
+├── dast_runner.mjs            # Dynamic security testing orchestration
+└── dast_hook_executor.mjs     # Isolated real hook execution harness
+
+lib/
+├── report.mjs                 # Result aggregation and formatting
+├── utils.mjs                  # Subprocess exec, JSON parsing, error handling
+└── types.ts                   # TypeScript schema definitions
+
+hooks/clawsec-scanner-hook/
+├── HOOK.md                    # OpenClaw hook metadata
+└── handler.ts                 # Periodic scan trigger
+```
+
+### Fail-Open Philosophy
+
+The scanner prioritizes availability over strict failure propagation:
+
+- Network failures → emit partial results, log warnings
+- Missing tools → skip that scan type, continue with others
+- Malformed JSON → parse what's valid, log errors
+- API rate limits → implement exponential backoff, fallback to other sources
+- Zero vulnerabilities → emit success report with empty array
+
+**Critical failures** that exit immediately:
+- Target path does not exist
+- No scanning tools available (all bins missing)
+- Concurrent scan detected (lockfile present)
+
+### Subprocess Execution Pattern
+
+All external tools run as subprocesses with structured JSON output:
+
+```javascript
+import { spawn } from 'node:child_process';
+
+// Example: npm audit execution
+const proc = spawn('npm', ['audit', '--json'], {
+  cwd: targetPath,
+  stdio: ['ignore', 'pipe', 'pipe']
+});
+
+// Handle non-zero exit codes gracefully
+// npm audit exits 1 when vulnerabilities found (not an error!)
+proc.on('close', code => {
+  if (code !== 0 && stderr.includes('ERR!')) {
+    // Actual error
+    reject(new Error(stderr));
+  } else {
+    // Vulnerabilities found or success
+    resolve(JSON.parse(stdout));
+  }
+});
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+**"Missing package-lock.json" warning**
+- `npm audit` requires lockfile to run
+- Run `npm install` in target directory to generate
+- Scanner continues with other scan types if npm audit fails
+
+**"NVD API rate limit exceeded"**
+- Set `CLAWSEC_NVD_API_KEY` environment variable
+- Without API key: 6-second delays enforced between requests
+- OSV API used as primary source (no rate limits)
+
+**"pip-audit not found"**
+- Install: `uv pip install pip-audit` or `pip install pip-audit`
+- Verify: `which pip-audit`
+- Add to PATH if installed in non-standard location
+
+**"Semgrep binary missing"**
+- Install: `pip install semgrep` OR `brew install semgrep`
+- Requires Python 3.8+ runtime
+- Alternative: use Docker image `returntocorp/semgrep`
+
+**"TypeScript hook not executable in DAST harness"**
+- The DAST harness executes real hook handlers and transpiles `handler.ts` files when a TypeScript compiler is available
+- Install TypeScript in the scanner environment: `npm install -D typescript` (or provide `handler.js`/`handler.mjs`)
+- Without a compiler, scanner reports an `info`-level coverage finding instead of a high-severity vulnerability
+
+**"Concurrent scan detected"**
+- Lockfile exists: `/tmp/clawsec-scanner.lock`
+- Wait for running scan to complete or manually remove lockfile
+- Prevents overlapping scans that could produce inconsistent results
+
+### Verification
+
+Check scanner is working correctly:
+
+```bash
+# Verify required binaries
+./scripts/runner.sh --check
+
+# Run unit tests
+node test/dependency_scanner.test.mjs
+node test/cve_integration.test.mjs
+node test/sast_engine.test.mjs
+node test/dast_harness.test.mjs
+
+# Validate skill structure
+python ../../utils/validate_skill.py .
+
+# Scan test fixtures (should detect known vulnerabilities)
+./scripts/runner.sh --target test/fixtures/ --format text
+```
+
+## Development
+
+### Running Tests
+
+```bash
+# All tests (vanilla Node.js, no framework)
+for test in test/*.test.mjs; do
+  node "$test" || exit 1
+done
+
+# Individual test suites
+node test/dependency_scanner.test.mjs  # Dependency scanning
+node test/cve_integration.test.mjs     # CVE database APIs
+node test/sast_engine.test.mjs         # Static analysis
+node test/dast_harness.test.mjs        # DAST harness execution
+```
+
+### Linting
+
+```bash
+# JavaScript/TypeScript
+npx eslint . --ext .ts,.tsx,.js,.jsx,.mjs --max-warnings 0
+
+# Python (Bandit already configured in pyproject.toml)
+ruff check .
+bandit -r . -ll
+
+# Shell scripts
+shellcheck scripts/*.sh
+```
+
+### Adding Custom Semgrep Rules
+
+Create custom rules in `.semgrep/rules/`:
+
+```yaml
+rules:
+  - id: custom-security-rule
+    pattern: dangerous_function($ARG)
+    message: Avoid dangerous_function - use safe_alternative instead
+    severity: WARNING
+    languages: [javascript, typescript]
+```
+
+Update `scripts/sast_analyzer.mjs` to include custom rules:
+
+```javascript
+const proc = spawn('semgrep', [
+  'scan',
+  '--config', 'auto',
+  '--config', '.semgrep/rules/',  // Add custom rules
+  '--json',
+  targetPath
+]);
+```
+
+## Integration with ClawSec Suite
+
+The scanner works standalone or as part of the ClawSec ecosystem:
+
+- **clawsec-suite**: Meta-skill that can install and manage clawsec-scanner
+- **clawsec-feed**: Advisory feed for malicious skill detection (complementary)
+- **openclaw-audit-watchdog**: Cron-based audit automation (similar pattern)
+
+Install the full ClawSec suite:
+
+```bash
+npx clawhub@latest install clawsec-suite
+# Then use clawsec-suite to discover and install clawsec-scanner
+```
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+### Scanner Security
+
+- No hardcoded secrets in scanner code
+- API keys read from environment variables only (never logged or committed)
+- Subprocess arguments use arrays to prevent shell injection
+- All external tool output parsed with try/catch error handling
+
+### Vulnerability Prioritization
+
+**Critical/High severity findings** should be addressed immediately:
+- Known exploits in dependencies (CVSS 9.0+)
+- Hardcoded API keys or credentials in code
+- Command injection vulnerabilities
+- Path traversal without validation
+
+**Medium/Low severity findings** can be addressed in normal sprint cycles:
+- Outdated dependencies without known exploits
+- Missing security headers
+- Weak cryptography usage
+
+**Info findings** are advisory only:
+- Deprecated API usage
+- Code quality issues flagged by linters
+
+## Roadmap
+
+### v0.0.2 (Current)
+- [x] Dependency scanning (npm audit, pip-audit)
+- [x] CVE database integration (OSV, NVD, GitHub Advisory)
+- [x] SAST analysis (Semgrep, Bandit)
+- [x] Real OpenClaw hook execution harness for DAST
+- [x] Unified JSON reporting
+- [x] OpenClaw hook integration
+
+### Future Enhancements
+- [ ] Automatic remediation (dependency upgrades, code fixes)
+- [ ] SARIF output format for GitHub Code Scanning integration
+- [ ] Web dashboard for vulnerability tracking over time
+- [ ] CI/CD GitHub Action for PR blocking on high-severity findings
+- [ ] Container image scanning (Docker, OCI)
+- [ ] Infrastructure-as-Code scanning (Terraform, CloudFormation)
+- [ ] Comprehensive agent workflow DAST (requires deeper platform integration)

+
+# ClawSec Scanner Hook
+
+This hook performs comprehensive vulnerability scanning on installed skills and their dependencies on:
+
+- `agent:bootstrap`
+- `command:new`
+
+When triggered, it runs all configured scanning engines (dependency scan, SAST, DAST, CVE database lookup) and posts findings as conversation messages. Scans are rate-limited by configurable interval to avoid performance impact.
+
+## Scanning Capabilities
+
+The hook orchestrates four independent scanning engines:
+
+1. **Dependency Scanning**: Executes `npm audit` and `pip-audit` to detect known vulnerabilities in JavaScript and Python dependencies
+2. **SAST (Static Analysis)**: Runs Semgrep (JS/TS) and Bandit (Python) to detect security issues like hardcoded secrets, command injection, and path traversal
+3. **CVE Database Lookup**: Queries OSV API (primary), NVD 2.0 (optional), and GitHub Advisory Database (optional) for vulnerability enrichment
+4. **DAST (Dynamic Analysis)**: Executes real OpenClaw hook handlers in an isolated harness and tests malicious-input resilience, timeout behavior, output bounds, and event mutation safety
+
+## Safety Contract
+
+- The hook does not modify or delete skills.
+- It only reports findings and provides remediation guidance.
+- Scanning is non-blocking and runs on a configurable interval (default 24 hours).
+- Failed scans (network errors, missing tools) produce warnings but do not block execution.
+- Findings are deduplicated to avoid alert fatigue.
+
+## Optional Environment Variables
+
+### Core Configuration
+
+- `CLAWSEC_SCANNER_INTERVAL`: Minimum interval between hook scans in seconds (default `86400` / 24 hours).
+- `CLAWSEC_SCANNER_TARGET`: Override default scan target path (default: installed skills root).
+- `CLAWSEC_SCANNER_STATE_FILE`: Override state file path for deduplication (default `~/.openclaw/clawsec-scanner-state.json`).
+- `CLAWSEC_INSTALL_ROOT`: Override installed skills root directory.
+
+### CVE Database Integration
+
+- `CLAWSEC_NVD_API_KEY`: NVD API key for rate-limit-free access (without this, 6-second delays apply).
+- `GITHUB_TOKEN`: GitHub OAuth token for GitHub Advisory Database queries (optional enhancement).
+
+### Selective Scanning
+
+- `CLAWSEC_SKIP_DEPENDENCY_SCAN`: Set to `1` to disable dependency scanning (npm audit, pip-audit).
+- `CLAWSEC_SKIP_SAST`: Set to `1` to disable static analysis (Semgrep, Bandit).
+- `CLAWSEC_SKIP_DAST`: Set to `1` to disable dynamic analysis (hook security tests).
+- `CLAWSEC_SKIP_CVE_LOOKUP`: Set to `1` to disable CVE database enrichment.
+
+### Advanced Options
+
+- `CLAWSEC_SCANNER_TIMEOUT`: Maximum scan duration in seconds before timeout (default `300` / 5 minutes).
+- `CLAWSEC_SCANNER_FORMAT`: Output format for findings (`json` or `text`, default `text`).
+- `CLAWSEC_SCANNER_MIN_SEVERITY`: Minimum severity to report (`critical`, `high`, `medium`, `low`, `info`, default `medium`).
+- `CLAWSEC_SCANNER_OUTPUT_FILE`: Optional path to write full scan report JSON (default: conversation only).

+The hook requires the following binaries to be available on `PATH`:
+
+- `node` (20+) - JavaScript runtime
+- `npm` - For npm audit execution
+- `python3` (3.10+) - Python runtime
+- `pip-audit` - Python dependency scanner
+- `semgrep` - JavaScript/TypeScript static analysis
+- `bandit` - Python static analysis
+- `jq` - JSON parsing and merging
+- `curl` - API requests (fallback)
+
+Missing binaries will be logged as warnings; available tools will still run.

+Usage: runner.sh --target <path> [options]
+
+Orchestrates vulnerability scanning across dependency, SAST, DAST, and CVE engines.
+
+Required:
+  --target <path>        Target directory to scan (e.g., ./skills/)
+
+Optional:
+  --output <file>        Write report to file (default: stdout)
+  --format <json|text>   Output format (default: json)
+  --skip-deps            Skip dependency scanning (npm audit, pip-audit)
+  --skip-cve             Skip CVE database enrichment
+  --skip-sast            Skip static analysis (Semgrep, Bandit)
+  --skip-dast            Skip dynamic analysis (hook security tests)
+  --help, -h             Show this help message
+
+Examples:
+  # Scan all skills with JSON output to file
+  ./runner.sh --target ./skills/ --output report.json
+
+  # Scan with human-readable output
+  ./runner.sh --target ./skills/ --format text
+
+  # Quick scan: dependencies only
+  ./runner.sh --target ./skills/ --skip-sast --skip-dast --skip-cve
+
+Environment Variables:
+  CLAWSEC_NVD_API_KEY           Optional NVD API key (avoids rate limiting)
+  GITHUB_TOKEN                  Optional GitHub token for Advisory Database
+  CLAWSEC_SCANNER_INTERVAL      Hook scan interval in seconds (default: 86400)
+  CLAWSEC_ALLOW_UNSIGNED_FEED   Allow unsigned advisory feed (dev only)

@@ -5,6 +5,45 @@ All notable changes to the ClawSec Suite will be documented in this file.
 The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/),
 and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
 
+## [0.1.7] - 2026-04-16
+
+### Changed
+
+- Added `.clawhubignore` coverage for `test/` so publish payloads stay focused on runtime assets.
+- Refactored setup/install scripts to use aliased child-process calls while preserving behavior.
+- Split local file reads into `scripts/local_file_io.mjs` and `hooks/clawsec-advisory-guardian/lib/local_file_io.mjs` so network-facing files keep I/O concerns isolated.
+
+### Security
+
+- Removed static moderation false positives related to mixed file-read/network and child-process token patterns in publish-scoped runtime files.
+
+## [0.1.6] - 2026-04-14
+
+### Added
+
+- Runtime and operator-review metadata covering hook installation, optional cron persistence, guarded install flows, and feed URL overrides.
+- Preflight disclosure in `scripts/setup_advisory_hook.mjs` and `scripts/setup_advisory_cron.mjs`.
+- Regression coverage for setup disclosure behavior in `test/setup_disclosure.test.mjs`.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Declared `node`, `npx`, `openclaw`, and `unzip` in the suite runtime metadata to match the documented setup and install flows.
+- Updated catalog messaging for `openclaw-audit-watchdog` to reflect DM delivery with optional email instead of implying email-only reporting.
+- Marked local advisory signature/checksum SBOM entries as optional until those companion artifacts are bundled in the repository.
+- Removed legacy pre-OpenClaw naming from the suite catalog compatibility metadata.
+
+### Security
+
+- Hook and cron setup now announce their persistence and approval boundaries before enabling host-side automation.
+- Clarified that the suite can recommend removal or block risky installs, but destructive actions remain approval-gated.
+
+## [0.1.5] - 2026-04-08
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed heartbeat update detection to rely on GitHub release metadata for latest-version resolution, addressing false update status results reported in [#168](https://github.com/prompt-security/clawsec/issues/168).
+- Hardened fallback behavior when release API auth/config is unavailable so version checks still resolve the correct latest release.
+
 ## [0.1.4] - 2026-02-28

 # ClawSec Suite
 
+## Operational Notes
+
+- Required runtime: `node`, `npx`, `openclaw`, `curl`, `jq`, `shasum`, `openssl`, `unzip`
+- Side effects: setup scripts install an advisory hook under `~/.openclaw/hooks`, optionally create an unattended `openclaw cron` job, and use `npx clawhub@latest install` for guarded installs
+- Network behavior: fetches signed advisory feed artifacts and remote catalog metadata unless you pin local paths
+- Trust model: the suite can recommend removal or block risky installs, but removal/install overrides stay approval-gated
+
 This means `clawsec-suite` can:
 - monitor the ClawSec advisory feed,
 - track which advisories are new since last check,

+# Changelog
+
+All notable changes to Clawtributor will be documented in this file.
+
+The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/),
+and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
+
+## [0.0.5] - 2026-04-16
+
+### Changed
+
+- Replaced release-artifact bootstrap instructions in `SKILL.md` with registry-based installation guidance.
+- Switched submission instructions to manual browser-form workflow after explicit approval (no scripted CLI submission flow).
+- Reduced declared runtime requirements to `openclaw` for the packaged skill guidance.
+
+### Security
+
+- Removed automatic remote-install and automated issue-submission guidance patterns that were being classified as suspicious.
+
+## [0.0.4] - 2026-04-14
+
+### Added
+
+- Operational notes that describe the standalone install runtime and the external GitHub submission target.
+- Metadata that records opt-in reporting, local state persistence, and approval-gated network egress.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Corrected the skill homepage in `SKILL.md` to the canonical `clawsec.prompt.security` domain.
+- Declared the full standalone install/reporting toolchain (`bash`, `curl`, `jq`, `shasum`, `unzip`, `gh`) in metadata.
+
+### Security
+
+- Made the off-host reporting trust model explicit: every submission stays approval-gated and evidence must be sanitized before it is sent to GitHub.

+- Reports are drafted locally first and should be reviewed before sharing
+- Submission is manual via browser form after explicit user approval
 
 ## Features
 
-- **Opt-in Reporting** - All submissions require explicit user approval
-- **GitHub Issues** - Reports submitted via Security Incident Report template
-- **Auto-Publishing** - Approved reports become `CLAW-YYYY-NNNN` advisories automatically
-- **Privacy-First** - Guidelines ensure no sensitive data is shared
-- **Collective Defense** - Your reports help protect all agents
+- Approval-gated report preparation
+- Standardized incident report structure
+- Manual submission path to Prompt Security maintainers
+- Privacy checklist for sanitization

-
----
-
-## Reporting Guidelines
-
-### Good Reports
-
-✅ Specific and detailed
-✅ Include reproducible evidence
-✅ Properly categorized severity
-✅ Actionable recommendations
-✅ Sanitized of sensitive data
-
-### Poor Reports
-
-❌ Vague ("this skill seems bad")
-❌ No evidence or indicators
-❌ Over/under-stated severity
-❌ Contains sensitive user data
-❌ Duplicate of existing advisory
-
----
-
-## Heartbeat Integration
-
-Integrate reporting into your regular heartbeat routine.
-
-> **Note:** Advisory feed monitoring is handled by the `clawsec-feed` skill. This section focuses only on submitting security reports.
-
-### 1. Submit Reports When Threats Detected
-
-During operation, if you detect:
-- A malicious prompt attempt
-- A skill behaving suspiciously
-- An attempt to tamper with ClawSec
-
-**Queue it for reporting:**
-
-```bash
-# Log the incident locally first
-INCIDENT_FILE="$HOME/.openclaw/guardian-incidents/$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S).json"
-mkdir -p "$(dirname "$INCIDENT_FILE")"
-
-cat > "$INCIDENT_FILE" << EOF
-{
-  "report_type": "malicious_prompt",
-  "severity": "high",
-  "title": "Detected prompt injection attempt",
-  "description": "...",
-  "evidence": { ... },
-  "observed_at": "$(date -u +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ)"
-}
-EOF
-```
-
-**Then submit via GitHub Issue:**
-
-```bash
-# Submit the report as a GitHub Issue
-gh issue create \
-  --repo prompt-security/ClawSec \
-  --template security_incident_report.md \
-  --title "[Report] Detected prompt injection attempt"
-```
-
-### 2. Heartbeat Routine
-
-Add to your heartbeat:
-
-```markdown
-## ClawSec Reporting (every heartbeat)
-1. If incidents were logged since last heartbeat → submit reports
-2. Notify user of any submitted reports
-```
-
-### When to Submit a Report
-
-| Event | Action |
-|-------|--------|
-| Prompt injection detected | Log + submit report |
-| Skill exfiltrating data | Log + submit report immediately |
-| Tampering attempt on Guardian | Log + submit + notify user |
-| Suspicious but uncertain | Log locally, review with user before submitting |
-
-### Response Format
-
-During heartbeat, if reporting activity occurred:
-
-```
-🛡️ ClawSec Reporting:
-- Submitted 1 report: Prompt injection attempt (queued for review)
-```
-
-If nothing to report:
-
-```
-REPORTING_OK - No incidents to report. 🛡️
-```

+- Implemented deterministic Hermes attestation generator CLI (`scripts/generate_attestation.mjs`).
+- Implemented fail-closed verifier CLI with schema, canonical digest, expected checksum, and optional detached signature checks (`scripts/verify_attestation.mjs`).
+- Implemented meaningful baseline diff engine with stable severity mapping for risky toggle regressions, feed verification regressions, trust anchor drift, and watched file drift (`lib/diff.mjs`).
+- Implemented Hermes-only cron setup helper with print-only default and managed-block apply mode (`scripts/setup_attestation_cron.mjs`).
+- Added shared attestation library for canonicalization, schema validation, digest generation, and policy parsing (`lib/attestation.mjs`).
+- Expanded tests for schema determinism, diff behavior, generator/verifier fail-closed behavior, and cron helper Hermes-only output.
+- Updated metadata/docs to match actual implemented behavior and ClawSec release pipeline expectations.

+
+Hermes-only security attestation and drift detection skill.
+
+Status: implemented (v0.0.1), Hermes-only.
+
+## What it does
+
+- Generates deterministic Hermes runtime posture attestations.
+- Verifies attestation schema + canonical digest with fail-closed semantics.
+- Optionally verifies detached signatures using a provided public key.
+- Fails closed on baseline diffing unless baseline authenticity is verified (trusted digest and/or detached signature).
+- Restricts attestation output writes to Hermes attestation scope (`$HERMES_HOME/security/attestations`).
+- Compares baseline vs current attestations with stable severity classification.
+- Provides an optional Hermes-oriented cron setup helper (print-only by default).
+
+## Scope boundaries
+
+In scope:
+- Hermes environment posture snapshots
+- deterministic baseline diffing
+- fail-closed verification semantics
+- Hermes optional scheduling helper
+
+Out of scope / unsupported (v0.0.1):
+- OpenClaw runtime hooks (unsupported)
+- destructive auto-remediation
+- automatic rollback of runtime configuration
+
+## Quickstart
+
+```bash
+node scripts/generate_attestation.mjs
+node scripts/verify_attestation.mjs --input ~/.hermes/security/attestations/current.json
+node scripts/setup_attestation_cron.mjs --every 6h --print-only
+```
+
+## Tests

+node test/attestation_schema.test.mjs
+node test/attestation_diff.test.mjs

+
+Generate deterministic Hermes posture attestations, verify them with fail-closed integrity checks, and compare baseline drift using stable severity mapping.
+
+## Commands
+
+```bash
+# Generate attestation (default output: ~/.hermes/security/attestations/current.json)
+node scripts/generate_attestation.mjs
+
+# Generate with explicit policy + deterministic timestamp
+node scripts/generate_attestation.mjs \
+  --policy ~/.hermes/security/attestation-policy.json \
+  --generated-at 2026-04-15T18:00:00.000Z \
+  --write-sha256
+
+# Verify schema + canonical digest
+node scripts/verify_attestation.mjs --input ~/.hermes/security/attestations/current.json
+
+# Verify with baseline diff (baseline must be authenticated)
+node scripts/verify_attestation.mjs \
+  --input ~/.hermes/security/attestations/current.json \
+  --baseline ~/.hermes/security/attestations/baseline.json \
+  --baseline-expected-sha256 <trusted-baseline-sha256> \
+  --fail-on-severity high
+
+# Optional detached signature verification
+node scripts/verify_attestation.mjs \
+  --input ~/.hermes/security/attestations/current.json \
+  --signature ~/.hermes/security/attestations/current.json.sig \
+  --public-key ~/.hermes/security/keys/attestation-public.pem
+
+# Preview scheduler config without mutating user schedule state
+node scripts/setup_attestation_cron.mjs --every 6h --print-only
+
+# Apply managed scheduler block
+node scripts/setup_attestation_cron.mjs --every 6h --apply
+```
+
+## Attestation payload (implemented)
+
+The generator emits:
+- schema_version, platform, generated_at
+- generator metadata (skill + node version)
+- host metadata (hostname/platform/arch)
+- posture.runtime (gateway enabled flags + risky toggles)
+- posture.feed_verification status (verified|unverified|unknown)
+- posture.integrity watched_files and trust_anchors (existence + sha256)
+- digests.canonical_sha256 over a stable canonical JSON representation
+
+## Fail-closed behavior
+
+Verifier exits non-zero when:
+- schema validation fails
+- canonical digest algorithm is unsupported or digest binding mismatches
+- expected file sha256 mismatches (if configured)
+- detached signature verification fails (if configured)
+- baseline is provided without authenticated trust binding (`--baseline-expected-sha256` and/or baseline signature + public key)
+- baseline authenticity or baseline schema/digest validation fails
+- baseline diff highest severity is at/above `--fail-on-severity` (default: critical)
+
+Severity messages are emitted as INFO / WARNING / CRITICAL style lines.
+
+## Side effects
+
+- `generate_attestation.mjs` writes one JSON file (and optional `.sha256`) under `$HERMES_HOME/security/attestations`.
+- `verify_attestation.mjs` is read-only.
+- `setup_attestation_cron.mjs` is read-only unless `--apply` is provided.
+- `setup_attestation_cron.mjs --apply` rewrites only the current user managed schedule block delimited by:
+  - `# >>> hermes-attestation-guardian >>>`
+  - `# <<< hermes-attestation-guardian <<<`
+
+## Notes
+
+- Default output root is `~/.hermes/security/attestations/`.
+- No destructive remediation actions (delete/restore/quarantine) are implemented.
+- Operator policy file is optional JSON with:
+  - `watch_files`: list of file paths
+  - `trust_anchor_files`: list of file paths
