OpenClaw ClawChat channel plugin
AI Security Review
scanned 2d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package performs undisclosed runtime reporting and defaults to starting a downloaded sample app when the account has no Liveware apps. These behaviors merit a warning; the reporting stays with the configured service and the sample is sourced from the vendor’s official repository with file hash checks.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
Gateway startup for a configured account; sample provisioning runs by default when the account has no Liveware apps.
Impact
The service receives runtime metadata without an evident reporting opt-out. The sample flow executes downloaded JavaScript and provisions a service for the account without a separate startup request.
Mechanism
The plugin reports a hashed device ID and version metadata to the configured ClawChat API. It can also download and execute the Liveware sample server, then register the sample for the account.
AI rationale
The package performs undisclosed runtime reporting and defaults to starting a downloaded sample app when the account has no Liveware apps. These behaviors merit a warning; the reporting stays with the configured service and the sample is sourced from the vendor’s official repository with file hash checks.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 87.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- Gateway startup sends a plugin report before credentials are available, then sends another after activation.
- The report includes a stable hashed device ID and plugin, host, and Node versions.
- The Liveware Sample feature defaults to enabled and its supervisor starts automatically with the gateway.
- When the account has no Liveware apps, the supervisor downloads the sample, runs its server with Node, and registers it with ClawChat.
Evidence against
- The reports go to the account’s configured ClawChat service and contain version fields plus a hashed device ID, not raw credentials.
- The sample is fetched from the vendor’s official repository and each downloaded file is checked against a manifest SHA-256.
- The manifest has no preinstall, install, or postinstall script; its lifecycle script is prepublishOnly.
