OpenClaw Skill Approval Gate

Decide in under 4 minutes whether an OpenClaw skill belongs in sandbox, production review, or the reject pile.

3–4 minutes 12 scored questions No login

This is a governance gate for skills, connectors, and MCP-style integrations. It is not a malware scanner, static code analyzer, or signature-based security verdict.

  • Screens source trust, provenance, sandbox testing, permission scope, data exposure, rollback, logging, and approval workflow maturity.
  • Separates governable skills from opaque skills that should stay out of production.
  • Routes directly into ACT Tier 2 vendor and agentic governance assets instead of generating a free supplier-review artifact.

What this result should change

The purpose of this screen is to classify the governance posture quickly, highlight the biggest gaps, and route the organization to the correct next step without giving away the paid implementation layer.

What this tool evaluates about a skill

It evaluates whether a proposed OpenClaw skill or connector is governable from a supplier-review standpoint, including provenance, testing, access, rollback, and approval workflow discipline.

What a sandbox-only result does not mean

Sandbox only does not automatically mean the skill is malicious. It means the evidence and control posture are too weak for normal enterprise rollout.

Why the paid bridge is ACT Tier 2

The missing value is a repeatable supplier-review workflow, retained evidence, approval logic, and policy linkage. That sits in ACT Tier 2, not in a free triage page.

Where to go next

Use the paid bridge when the screening result shows structural control gaps that need policy, procedure, evidence, and implementation ownership rather than another free quiz.

OpenClaw Skill Approval Gate FAQ

What does this tool evaluate about a skill?
It evaluates provenance, maintainer trust, sandbox testing, permissions, data exposure, rollback, logging, ownership, and approval workflow maturity for a proposed OpenClaw skill or connector.
Does a sandbox-only result mean the skill is malicious?
No. It means the evidence or control posture is not strong enough for standard enterprise rollout. The right next step is controlled testing, not automatic trust.
Why are provenance and rollback weighted so heavily?
Because a skill with weak provenance and no reliable rollback path can expand blast radius faster than teams expect, even before formal production approval exists.
Why is a formal approval workflow necessary?
Because marketplace enthusiasm is not an enterprise control. A formal workflow creates retained evidence, owner accountability, and consistent decisions across skills and connectors.
Does this tool store anything I enter?
No. The assessment runs entirely in the browser. Answers are not stored, synced, or submitted to a server.
