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

Writes files AND executes processes — may drop and execute malicious scripts

LLM05 · LLM06 · ASI05

Capability combination high

Executes processes AND makes external network calls — may exfiltrate command output

LLM02 · LLM06 · ASI03

Permission integrity

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

Findings (5)

Pattern match critical

Pipe-to-shell pattern (curl | sh) — supply chain attack vector

SKILL.md · frontmatter · curl -fsSL https://grove.city/install-cli.sh | bash

Pattern match critical

Pipe to bash — executes piped content as shell commands

SKILL.md · frontmatter · | bash

Pattern match high

subprocess execution — runs system commands from Python

SKILL.md · code · subprocess.run(

Pattern match high

References child_process — can spawn system processes

Why the tier is capped

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