A skill can claim to summarize your logs while bundling a script that ships them off your machine. A well-meaning skill can point your agent at a CLI that wipes production on the wrong flag. Neither of those is malware in the classic sense, and neither is something a virus scanner was built to catch. So before installing a skill, you really want to know three things: What it claims to do. Whether the bundled code actually matches that claim. What the blast radius looks like if something goes wrong. Answering those questions at the ecosystem scale is core to ClawHub’s mission.
