OpenClaw Partners with VirusTotal to Secure AI Agent Skill Marketplace

OpenClaw announced a partnership with Google’s VirusTotal to automatically scan all AI agent skills on its ClawHub marketplace, leveraging hash lookups and Gemini-powered Code Insight for behavioral analysis, with auto-approval/flagging, daily re-scans, and transparent reporting. Positioned within a broader security program that includes a formal threat model, audits, and a disclosure process, the initiative aims to mitigate risks from malicious or coercive skills while acknowledging automated scanning as just one layer of defense.
