ClawAudit verdict
credential-vault
Provides local AES-256-GCM encrypted credential storage; all operations are local to ~/.openclaw/vault/ with no external network transmission of secrets, and the security model is transparently documented including its limitations.
⚠ Flagged for review — coarse, uncorroborated signal, not a confirmed exploit. Review the config yourself before installing.
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.
