Security Recommendations for openclaw-audit-watchdog

Resolve policy violations

openclaw-audit-watchdog trips ClawSecure policy checks. Review each flagged pattern against your security policy and remediate or document an accepted exception before production use.

Audit external network connections

openclaw-audit-watchdog sends data to external endpoints. Confirm each destination is expected and authorized, and remove any callback that exfiltrates data. ClawSecure monitors for known exfiltration and C2 endpoints.

Add a config.json permissions manifest

A config.json file declares what an agent component can access: file system, network, shell execution and more. Without it, users have no visibility into what the component can do before installing. This is the single most impactful security improvement for any AI agent skill.

Pin dependencies to exact versions

Unpinned dependencies allow supply-chain attacks where a compromised version is pulled in automatically. Use exact version numbers in package.json (for example 1.2.3 instead of ^1.2.3) to keep unauthorized code out of your dependency tree. ClawSecure checks every dependency against known CVE databases.
