@clawos-dev/clawd@0.2.556
Standalone clawd daemon — Claude Code (and future Codex) session server over WebSocket
AI Security Review
scanned 1mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiNo install-time malware behavior was found, but default remote telemetry sends runtime records and stable installation identity to a package-selected endpoint. This is a concrete conditional data-exposure risk rather than evidence of malware intent.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review; source fingerprint signature matched known malicious package; routed for review
Trigger
The user runs the clawd executable and does not disable log shipping.
Impact
Runtime log content and installation identifiers can be disclosed to the remote logging service.
Mechanism
Configuration defaults log shipping to on, initializes a log client with local identity, and POSTs serialized log batches to its endpoint.
AI rationale
No install-time malware behavior was found, but default remote telemetry sends runtime records and stable installation identity to a package-selected endpoint. This is a concrete conditional data-exposure risk rather than evidence of malware intent.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 86.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The executable enables log shipping by default, selects a package-owned remote endpoint, and posts batches of runtime log records there.
- Daemon startup includes a persistent owner and device identifier in the log client identity, so shipped records are attributable to the local installation.
Evidence against
- package.json has no npm preinstall, install, or postinstall lifecycle hook.
- The log client redacts metadata fields whose keys look like tokens, secrets, passwords, auth values, or API keys, and shipping can be disabled.
