🟢 Trusted
No high-risk patterns surfaced by the deep scan — automated capability review, not behavioral proof.

Accesses credentials AND makes external network calls

Setup and proxy configuration skill for Brave Search that reads system proxy ports and modifies OpenClaw config; all operations are user-initiated configuration changes with no credential exfiltration or deceptive behavior.

Automated static analysis — not a human review. Caveat flags capabilities, not confirmed intent, and can produce false positives. Disagree with this verdict? Use Dispute below.

What it does

These are capability combinations: each listed behavior occurs in the skill, but Caveat detects co-occurrence — it does not verify that one flows into another. Read the code to confirm a live chain.

Capability combination high

Accesses credentials AND makes external network calls — potential credential theft

LLM02 · ASI03

Capability combination high

Accesses credentials AND writes files — may persist stolen credentials locally

LLM02 · LLM06 · ASI03

Permission integrity

Makes network requests but does not declare curl/wget in required binaries

network_out

Performs file operations but does not declare file-accessing binaries

file_read+write

Code accesses API keys/tokens but declares no environment variables

credential_access

Installs packages at runtime — transitive dependencies are not auditable

package_install

Findings (4)

Pattern match high

HTTP request to bare IP address — common in malicious payloads

SKILL.md · code · http://127.0.0.1

Pattern match high

Accesses shell history/config

SKILL.md · code · ~/.zshrc

Pattern match high

References sudo — requests elevated privileges

SKILL.md · code · sudo

Pattern match medium

Accesses OpenClaw config/secrets directly

SKILL.md · prose · downgraded · ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json

Why the tier is capped

Execution sink present in raw bytes (Hard Floor: class F). Final tier capped at Caution — cannot be lifted by any downgrade, example-payload opt-in, or allowlist.

Permissions & capabilities

No declared permissions — minimal attack surface.
