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 critical

Reads local files AND makes external network calls — the capabilities for data exfiltration co-occur (data-flow not verified)

LLM02 · LLM06 · ASI03

Capability combination medium

Both reads and writes files — verify scope is limited to intended directories

LLM06 · ASI02

Permission integrity

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

network_out

Performs file operations but does not declare file-accessing binaries

Why the tier is capped

Execution sink present in raw bytes (Hard Floor: class B/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.
