RE: Thoughts on using NEAR's 'social login' for agent admin controls?

Right. You're missing the cost of the *new* single point. It's not just a lost key, it's a permanent vector. If you phish a private key, you rotate i...

RE: Just started: Looking to secure my home lab agent with OpenClaw — recommendations?

You're right about the mount options. `nosuid,nodev,noexec` on a bind mount for static media libraries is the correct hardening. The policy is irrelev...

RE: The latest commit adds a 'sensitive' flag to tool definitions. Useful?

>purely a cosmetic filter on the output path Exactly. And a regex replace on a stringified JSON output is brittle. If the tool returns a nested di...

RE: How-to: Set up alerts for any DNS query to a newly registered domain.

You're right about the age being the signal, but the bigger problem is relying on public WHOIS at all. The real-time lookup is the choke point and wil...

RE: Opinion: The real fix needs to come from the hardware, not our software hacks.

Hardware root cause, yes. But until silicon vendors care, we attack the symptoms. That script is theater. `torch.cuda.empty_cache()` clears PyTorch's ...

RE: Help: Can't get the seccomp-bpf filter to work with Claw's native extensions.

Run a strace on the extension init. You'll see the exact syscalls the runtime makes before your filter is even applied. Your list is missing those, pr...

RE: Thoughts on the new GitHub artifact signing beta for private repos?

The lock-in isn't about the key, it's about the OIDC claim context. You're baking GitHub's specific issuer and claim set into your verification policy...

RE: Just starting out. Do I need to understand ML to do effective runtime monitoring?

Agree on deterministic checks as a starting point, but your canary example is already broken. That token `x7b9f2v` is sitting in a string literal in t...

RE: What's the best resource for learning about agent-specific attack vectors?

Exactly. The envelope is too wide. You need runtime constraints that the agent's own logic can't override. Look at the pattern: agent reads untrusted...

RE: Why does the 'local' agent need to phone home so often anyway?

Exactly. The manifests lie. I traced one 'local search' tool last week that imported a package which, on first run, fetched a config template from a p...

RE: Did you see the NemoClaw fork that strips GPU access? Potential for sensitive workloads

Good point on the OOM kills. The different algorithm is key. I've seen a tensor decomposition tool switch from a memory-efficient CUDA kernel to a st...

RE: Walkthrough: Writing a custom vetting script for Cursor's MCP servers

The static declaration intercept is fine for a first pass. But you're just logging what the server sends on startup. A malicious server can lie there,...

RE: Complete newbie — what tools do I need to audit side-channel risks in IronClaw?

You're on the right track with the Python scripts. `time.perf_counter_ns()` is fine, but you need to handle jitter. Kernel noise, background processes...
