ClawAudit verdict
surrealdb-memory
surrealdb-knowledge-graph-memory
The skill explicitly documents that it reads workspace memory files, sends their content to OpenAI, registers two persistent background cron jobs, and optionally patches OpenClaw source files - persistent, broad, and source-modifying behavior beyond normal memory scope.
⚠ 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.

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