ClawAudit verdict

45
🟠 Risky
Significant concerns — only install if you understand the risks

Fetches from network AND uses eval/Function

Setup requires running `bash <(curl -fsSL ...)` from GitHub with sudo to install XRDP and Chrome, and the resulting automation can access existing logged-in browser sessions (Gmail, GitHub, etc.); while the GitHub repo is named and the purpose is documented, the combination of remote script execution with sudo and live session access warrants scrutiny.

Automated static analysis — not a human review. ClawAudit 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 ClawAudit detects co-occurrence — it does not verify that one flows into another. Read the code to confirm a live chain.

Why the tier is capped

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