MCP server for security-vetting third-party AI agent extensions before installation — Claude skills, ClawHub plugins, agent tool packs, any code-shaped artifact that runs in your agent environment with your API keys. 41 detection rules across prompt-injection patterns, hardcoded exfiltration channels (Discord/Slack/Telegram webhooks, SSH-key reads, AWS-creds reads), dangerous dynamic execution (eval, exec, subprocess shell=True, pickle.loads), manifest/permission drift, and known typosquat dependencies. Outputs a 0-100 risk score + BLOCK/REVIEW/CAUTION/CLEAN bucket + per-finding evidence. Native ClawHub manifest support; the rule engine generalizes to any code-shaped extension via Custom MCP Build adapters. Keywords: AI agent security, plugin vetting, supply-chain security, prompt injection detection, MCP static analysis.

What it does

Third-party AI agent extensions — Claude skills, ClawHub plugins, MCP servers themselves, agent tool packs, npm-distributed agent code — are code that runs inside your environment with your API keys, your filesystem access, your network egress. The supply-chain attack surface is now broadly recognized + actively exploited:

The OWASP MCP Top 10 catalogues prompt injection, command injection, and "rug pull" attacks where compromised MCP servers update with malicious tool definitions after user approval. Microsoft, Datadog, Atlassian, Palo Alto Unit 42, and Prompt Security have all published detailed threat analyses in 2026: see Datadog's MCP risks blog, Atlassian's MCP Clients risk awareness, and Unit 42's MCP sampling attack vectors.

The 2026 ClawHavoc campaign poisoned the OpenClaw skill registry (ClawHub) at scale. Latest public counts: 824 confirmed malicious skills (~7.7% of a 10,700+ registry as of mid-Feb 2026) per Koi Security + The Hacker News. Snyk's ToxicSkills study flagged prompt injection in 36% of skills + 1,467 malicious payloads. Bitdefender's independent analysis places it at ~900 / ~20% of the ecosystem. Antiy Labs catalogued 1,184 historically published. Zscaler ThreatLabz documented the DeepSeek-Claw skill distributing Remcos RAT + GhostLoader — exfils macOS keychain, SSH keys, crypto wallets, cloud API tokens.

The OpenClaw runtime itself accumulated 138+ CVEs in 2026 (tracker) — one-click RCE (CVE-2026-25253, CVSS 8.8), browser-snapshot RCE ([CVE-2026-42436](https://www.redpacketsecurity.com/cve-alert-cve-2026-42436-openclaw-
