🟢 Trusted
Low risk — reviewed by ClawAudit, behavior matches stated purpose

Accesses credentials AND makes external network calls

Local file search skill using self-hosted Khoj (RAG) with a cloud LLM API for query processing; documents are indexed locally with only the natural language query sent to cloud LLM, matching stated purpose of private local file retrieval.

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.

Capability combination high

Accesses credentials AND makes external network calls — potential credential theft

LLM02 · ASI03

Capability combination high

Accesses credentials AND encodes data — may obfuscate stolen credentials

LLM02 · ASI03 · ASI04

Permission integrity

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

network_out

Code accesses API keys/tokens but declares no environment variables

credential_access

Installs packages at runtime — transitive dependencies are not auditable

package_install

Findings (6)

Pattern match critical

Possible hardcoded credential

Pattern match high

Pipe to python — executes piped content as Python code

SKILL.md · prose · downgraded · | Python

Pattern match high

References sudo — requests elevated privileges

README.md · code · sudo

Pattern match medium

subprocess execution — runs system commands from Python

khoj_cli.py · prose · downgraded · subprocess.run(

Pattern match low

Python os.environ.get — reads environment variable

khoj_cli.py · prose · downgraded · os.environ.get(

Pattern match low

Python shutil file operation — copies/moves/deletes files

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.
