BC openclaw-aws-deploy

Deploy OpenClaw securely on AWS with a single command. Creates VPC, EC2 (ARM64), Telegram channel, and configurable AI model (Bedrock, Gemini, or any provider) — SSM-only access, no SSH. Use when setting up OpenClaw on AWS, deploying a new agent instance to EC2, or tearing down an existing AWS deployment.

What is at stake

Medium-severity findings: the skill is probably honest, but read what alarmed the scanner.

Broad scope medium severity

Below is the worst case for this category. The finding here is medium: the guard saw a sign, not a proof.

If you install

The skill asks for more than the task needs: broad tool access, credential environment variables, binaries. Every extra permission widens the damage from a mistake or a compromise.

For the author

Narrow allowed-tools and the variable list to the minimum; replace binaries with readable sources or scripts.

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 61/100

    • 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
    • 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
    • 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
    • 30Running it twice. 17 mutating operations with no state check
    • 60Tools and files. Uses tools (node) that frontmatter does not declare
    • 70Inputs and preconditions. Inputs and preconditions are listed
    • 100Steps. 46 steps
    • 100Failures and branches. 1 branches, has a failure section
    • 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
    • 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 2464 tokens
    • medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing
    • low The response is described with custom markup (3 tags): a typed call is more reliable

    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)
    • +3Output format is not stated: the model decides each time
    • -4Absolute local paths (C:\Users, /home/…): not portable
    • +1No license
    • +2Single-language instructions
    • +3Description length 306: enough signal without eating the budget
    • +4Structure: 33 headings
    • +3Step-by-step instructions: 46 items
    • +4Has examples (10 code blocks)
    • +4Reference files are cited in the instructions (1 of 1)
    • +3All 5 scripts are documented

    Quality base 70; lint remarks subtract, signals add up to 100. Result: 87.

    ClawHub: suspicious
    This is a real AWS deployment helper, but it grants broad cloud authority and installs a persistent agent with proactive personal-assistant behaviors that need careful review.
