360Guard

360Guard 🛡️

360-degree comprehensive security review — Like antivirus for your Skills

1. When to Use

• Before installing any Skill from ClawHub
• Before installing any Skill from GitHub or other sources
• When evaluating code shared by other Agents
• Any time you're asked to install unknown code
• Periodic audit of installed Skills (recommended monthly)
• Before running high-risk Skills for second verification

2. Core Principles

┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│  🛑 Security Layer Priority                                 │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│  ⛔ EXTREME → Absolutely refuse to install                  │
│  🔴 HIGH    → Requires human approval                       │
│  🟡 MEDIUM  → Full code review + limited permissions        │
│  🟢 LOW     → Basic review OK                               │

3. Security Checklist

3.1 Base Red Flags (from Skill Vetter)

🚨 Reject immediately if you see:
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
• curl/wget to unknown URLs
• Sends data to external servers
• Requests credentials/tokens/API keys
• Reads ~/.ssh, ~/.aws, ~/.config without clear reason
• Accesses MEMORY.md, USER.md, SOUL.md, IDENTITY.md
• Uses base64 decode on anything
• Uses eval() or exec() with external input
• Modifies system files outside workspace
• Installs packages without listing them
• Network calls to IPs instead of domains
• Obfuscated code (compressed, encoded, minified)
• Requests elevated/sudo permissions
• Accesses browser cookies/sessions
• Touches credential files
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

3.2 Extended Red Flags (New)

3.2.1 Persistence & Auto-start

🔴 Persistence check:
• Creates cron job / systemd service
• Modifies ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
• Writes to /etc/hosts
• Adds Login Items / Startup Items
• Modifies .bashrc / .zshrc / profile
• Registers LaunchAgent (macOS)
• Installs systemd user service

3.2.2 Monitoring & Eavesdropping

🔴 Monitoring permissions check:
• Requests screen capture/recording (screencapture)
• Requests audio recording permission
• Keyloggers
• Accesses microphone/camera
• File system monitoring (fswatch/inotify)

3.2.3 Data & Privacy

🔴 Data theft check:
• Reads clipboard (pbpaste)
• Reads environment variables (especially API_, SECRET, TOKEN)
• Accesses browser history/bookmarks
• Accesses macOS Keychain
• Accesses iMessage/SMS
• Accesses contacts/calendar
• Accesses photo library

3.2.4 Network & Communication

🔴 Network anomaly check:
• Initiates reverse shell (nc -e / bash -i)
• Uses Tor proxy
• DNS queries to suspicious domains
• WebSocket long connections
• IRC connections
• Non-standard ports (>65535 or <1024 unusual)
• Hardcoded IP addresses (non-local)

3.2.5 Code Execution (Advanced)

🔴 Dynamic execution check:
• Dynamic import (importlib.import_module)
• __import__() dynamic loading
• compile() dynamic compilation
• xmlrpc / jsonrpc remote calls
• pickle / yaml / marshal deserialization
• exec() / eval() any string
• subprocess shell=True

3.2.6 File System

🟡 File operation check:
• Writes to executable paths outside /tmp
• Modifies /usr/local/bin
• Writes .dmg/.pkg installers
• Creates .hidden files/directories
• File permission modification (chmod +x)
• Symbolic links (pointing external)
• Contains binary files (.so/.dylib/.exe/.bin)

3.2.7 Dependencies & Supply Chain

🟡 Supply chain check:
• Dependency version range too wide (>1.0.0 not ^1.0.0)
• Dependencies from private/unknown sources
• Dependencies on deprecated packages
• Silent additional dependency downloads
• References other unvetted Skills
• Uses git submodule (may point to malicious repo)

3.2.8 Social Engineering

🟡 Social engineering check:
• Mimics popular Skill names (e.g., "github", "weather-ai")
• README overpromises ("one-click to do everything...")
• No source code, only compiled binaries
• Author has no history
• Downloads vs stars ratio suspicious (fake reviews)
