Security audit

Agent Knock Knock

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a disclosed local bridge that lets OpenClaw send work to already-running Codex or Claude terminal sessions, with powerful but purpose-aligned local controls.

Install only if you want OpenClaw to control existing local Codex or Claude Code terminal panes. Keep autoApprove disabled unless you configure exact trusted commands and workspace roots, and remember that task text and terminal output are still processed by the coding agents and providers you use.
