ClawAudit verdict
research-orchestrator
Reads local files AND makes external network calls
Uses curl to call documented search APIs (SearXNG, arXiv) and generates local research reports; despite credential_access capability, no evidence of secret exfiltration — the curl commands shown target well-known public research APIs.
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.
Reads local files AND makes external network calls — the capabilities for data exfiltration co-occur (data-flow not verified)

Why the tier is capped
Execution sink present in raw bytes (Hard Floor: class C/D). Final tier capped at Caution — cannot be lifted by any downgrade, example-payload opt-in, or allowlist.
Permissions & capabilities
Requires 2 system binaries. (1 elevated: curl).
