BC prompt-shield-lite

Minimal anti-prompt-injection guardrail for OpenClaw agents. Use when handling untrusted external content (web pages, emails, tool output, documents), before high-risk actions (shell commands, file deletion/modification, config edits, outbound messaging), and before sending any external text.

How to improve

    For the model run — optional
    • Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
    • A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

    Against the Agent Skills spec

    ✓ No remarks against the Agent Skills spec

    Process rating: all ten parameters 58/100

    • 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
    • 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
    • 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
    • 30Running it twice. 2 mutating operations with no state check
    • 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash) that frontmatter does not declare
    • 60Result and completion. Output format stated, no completion criterion
    • 65Failures and branches. 3 branches
    • 100Steps. 20 steps
    • 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
    • 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 647 tokens

    Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.

    Quality signals

    • +5Description has no quoted example phrases that should trigger the skill
    • +4Description does not say when NOT to use the skill (false activations)
    • -34 of 8 scripts are never mentioned in SKILL.md
    • +1No license
    • +2Single-language instructions
    • +3Description length 293: enough signal without eating the budget
    • +4Structure: 8 headings
    • +3Step-by-step instructions: 20 items
    • +3Output format is stated explicitly
    • +4Has examples (3 code blocks)

    Quality base 70; lint remarks subtract, signals add up to 100. Result: 84.

    ClawHub: suspicious
    This looks like a legitimate local prompt-injection guardrail, but the package is incomplete enough that it may fail open while claiming protection.
