Lord1Egypt context-verifier (検証)
Unified skill for file hash computation, integrity verification, severity tagging, and context packet creation. Consolidates 3 granular skills into a single verification system.
Trigger: 明示呼出 (explicit invocation)
Source skills: context-packet, file-verifier, severity-tagger
Installation
openclaw install leegitw/context-verifier
Dependencies: None (foundational skill)
Standalone usage: This skill is fully functional standalone. It provides file integrity verification that other skills in the suite depend on. Install this first when adopting the Neon Agentic Suite.
Data handling: This skill performs local-only operations. Hash computation uses standard
SHA256 algorithms locally — no file contents are sent to any model, API, or external service.
Results are written to output/context-packets/ in your workspace. The skill reads config from
.openclaw/context-verifier.yaml or .claude/context-verifier.yaml only.
File access scope: This skill reads user-specified files for hash computation. The metadata
declares config and output paths only — the skill will read ANY file path you provide to
/cv hash, /cv verify, or /cv packet. Use caution with sensitive files.
What This Solves
AI agents sometimes operate on stale data — editing a file that changed since it was read, or trusting cached content that's now outdated. This skill prevents that by:
- Computing hashes of files before and after operations
- Detecting changes between read and write
- Generating context packets with verifiable checksums for review workflows
The insight: Trust but verify. The file you read might not be the file you're about to edit. Check first.
Usage
/cv <sub-command> [arguments]
Sub-Commands
| Command | CJK | Logic | Trigger |
|---|---|---|---|
/cv hash |
哈希 | file→SHA256(content) | Explicit |
/cv verify |
検証 | file×hash→match✓∨mismatch✗ | Explicit |
/cv tag |
標記 | file→severity∈{critical,important,minor} | Explicit |
/cv packet |
包装 | files[]→{path,hash,severity,timestamp}[] | Explicit |
Arguments
/cv hash
| Argument | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| file | Yes | File path to hash |
| --algorithm | No | Hash algorithm: sha256 only (MD5/SHA-1 removed - cryptographically broken) |
/cv verify
| Argument | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| file | Yes | File path to verify |
| hash | Yes | Expected hash value |
| --algorithm | No | Hash algorithm: sha256 only |
/cv tag
| Argument | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| file | Yes | File path to tag |
| severity | No | Severity level: critical, important, minor (auto-detected if omitted) |
/cv packet
| Argument | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| files | Yes | Comma-separated file paths or glob pattern |
| --name | No | Packet name (default: auto-generated) |
| --include-content | No | Include file content in packet (default: false) - see Security section |
⚠️ Security Warning: The
--include-contentflag stores file contents to disk. Never use this flag with sensitive files (.env, credentials, secrets). See the Security Considerations section below.
Configuration
Configuration is loaded from (in order of precedence):
.openclaw/context-verifier.yaml(OpenClaw standard).claude/context-verifier.yaml(Claude Code compatibility)- Defaults (built-in patterns)
Security Considerations
Local-only processing: All hash computation uses standard SHA256 algorithms executed locally. No file contents are ever sent to any LLM, API, or external service. The "agent's model" is only used to interpret your commands — not to process file contents.
What this skill does NOT do:
- Send file contents to any model or API (hashing is local)
- Call external APIs or third-party services
- Modify source files (only writes to
output/context-packets/)
What this skill accesses:
- Configuration files in
.openclaw/context-verifier.yamland.claude/context-verifier.yaml - Any user-specified files for hash computation (read-only) — the skill reads whatever paths you provide
- Its own output directory
output/context-packets/(write)
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Unlike other skills in this suite, context-verifier reads arbitrary files that
you specify. The metadata only declares config/output paths. When you run /cv hash myfile.go,
the skill reads myfile.go even though it's not in the metadata. This is by design — verification
requires reading the files you want to verify.
This skill handles file metadata and optionally file contents. Follow these guidelines:
Sensitive File Detection (Not Reading)
The critical_patterns (e.g., *.env, *credentials*, *secret*) are used for:
- Detection: Identifying files that should trigger warnings
- Severity tagging: Marking files as critical for change-blocking behavior
By default, /cv hash and /cv packet compute hashes without reading file contents into output.
The hash is computed but the file content is not stored.
--include-content Flag
⚠️ WARNING: The --include-content flag writes actual file contents to disk.
| Risk | Mitigation |
|---|---|
| Secrets written to disk | Never use --include-content with .env, credentials, or secret files |
| Sensitive data in git | Add output/context-packets/ to .gitignore (see below) |
| Data retention | Packets are stored indefinitely; manually delete when no longer needed |
Recommended usage:
# Safe: Hash only (default) - no content stored
/cv packet src/*.go --name "pre-refactor"
# Risky: Content included - ensure no sensitive files in glob
/cv packet docs/*.md --name "docs-backup" --include-content
# NEVER do this:
/cv packet .env --include-content # Stores secrets to disk!
Required .gitignore Entry
Add to your .gitignore to prevent accidental commits:
# Context verification packets (may contain sensitive data)
output/context-packets/
Storage and Retention
- Location: Packets stored in
output/context-packets/(workspace-local) - Format: Unencrypted JSON
- Retention: No automatic deletion; clean up manually
- Access: Standard filesystem permissions (no additional access controls)
For sensitive environments, consider:
- Restricting
output/directory permissions - Using encrypted filesystems
- Periodic cleanup of old packets
Provenance

to ClawHub under the leegitw account. Both refer to the same maintainer.
Core Logic
Hash Computation
Default algorithm: SHA-256
hash(file) = SHA256(file.content)
Severity Classification
Files are auto-classified based on configurable patterns:
| Severity | Default Patterns | Behavior on Change |
|---|---|---|
| critical | *.env, *credentials*, *secret*, project config |
Block operation |
| important | *.go, *.ts, *.md (in docs/) |
Warn user |
| minor | *.log, *.tmp, output/* |
Info only |
Critical file patterns are configurable via .openclaw/context-verifier.yaml:
# .openclaw/context-verifier.yaml
critical_patterns:
- "*.env"
- "*credentials*"
- "*secret*"
- "CLAUDE.md" # Claude Code projects
- "AGENTS.md" # OpenClaw projects
- "pyproject.toml" # Python projects
- "Cargo.toml" # Rust projects

Examples
Verify file before editing
/cv hash src/main.go
# Save hash: a1b2c3d4e5f6...
# ... later, before editing ...
/cv verify src/main.go a1b2c3d4e5f6
# ✓ MATCH - safe to edit
Create context packet for refactoring
/cv packet src/*.go,internal/**/*.go --name "pre-refactor"
# Creates packet with all Go files
# ... after refactoring ...
# Can compare against packet to see what changed
Tag sensitive files
/cv tag .env
# Severity: critical
/cv tag src/handler.go
# Severity: important
Verify database migration before deployment
/cv packet db/migrations/*.sql --name "pre-deploy-migrations"
# Creates packet with all migration files
# After staging deployment...
/cv verify db/migrations/001_users.sql abc123...
# ✓ MATCH - migration file unchanged, safe to deploy to production
Create API schema verification packet
/cv packet api/schemas/*.json,api/openapi.yaml --name "api-schema-v2"
# Creates packet with all API schema files for version control
