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 writes files — may persist stolen credentials locally

LLM02 · LLM06 · ASI03

Permission integrity

Performs file operations but does not declare file-accessing binaries

file_read+write

Code accesses API keys/tokens but declares no environment variables

Findings (3)

Pattern match high

Accesses OpenClaw config/secrets directly

SKILL.md · code · ~/.openclaw/.env

Pattern match medium

subprocess execution — runs system commands from Python

Pattern match low

Python urllib.request — network access

Why the tier is capped

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