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.

Findings (3)

Pattern match high

subprocess execution — runs system commands from Python

SKILL.md · code · subprocess.run(

Pattern match high

HTTP request to bare IP address — common in malicious payloads

SKILL.md · code · http://127.0.0.1

Pattern match medium

Python os.environ.get — reads environment variable

SKILL.md · code · os.environ.get(

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.

Permissions & capabilities

No declared permissions — minimal attack surface.
