SecOpsAI Skill for OpenClaw

This skill lets an OpenClaw agent:

• Run the secopsai OpenClaw detection pipeline
• List and summarise findings from the local SOC store
• Investigate and close findings by ID with the native triage workflow
• Run the native triage orchestrator, inspect queued actions, and apply approved actions
• Get structured mitigation steps for any finding
• Run a local-first threat intelligence (IOC) pipeline and match IOCs against OpenClaw replay
• Review PyPI and npm package releases for supply-chain compromise
• Suggest false-positive actions for suspicious supply-chain findings

Assumptions

• secopsai is installed at ~/secopsai, preferably via a transparent repo checkout / manual setup flow such as:
• git clone https://github.com/Techris93/secopsai.git ~/secopsai
• cd ~/secopsai && python3 -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate && pip install -r requirements.txt
• OpenClaw audit logs are present at ~/.openclaw/logs/ on the same host.
• The agent has access to an exec tool to run shell commands.
• The virtualenv at ~/secopsai/.venv is used for all commands.

If installation guidance is needed, prefer pointing users to the GitHub repo/manual setup path first. Only mention the hosted installer as an optional shortcut, not the default recommendation.

Safety defaults (read this)

This skill can run shell commands and can modify the local SOC store when performing triage.

• Prefer read-only operations by default (list/show/check).
• Before any write/triage action (triage close, triage orchestrate, triage apply-action), require explicit user confirmation.
• If you enable scheduled jobs, ensure they run under a controlled account and that automated writes are intended.
• Backup the SOC DB (data/openclaw/findings/openclaw_soc.db) before enabling unattended automation.

Command Mappings

1. Show findings

User phrases:

• "show findings"
• "show today's findings"
• "list findings"
• "what findings do we have"

Exec command:

cd "$HOME/secopsai" && source .venv/bin/activate && \
  secopsai list --severity info --json --cache-ttl 60

(--json also works before the subcommand, e.g. secopsai --json list ....)

Agent behaviour:

• Parse the JSON payload from secopsai list (field: findings).
• For each finding, extract: finding_id, severity, status, disposition, title.
• Reply with:
• Total count
• Count by severity (HIGH / MEDIUM / LOW / INFO)
• List of HIGH (and MEDIUM) findings with ID and title

2. Run daily pipeline

User phrases:

• "run daily pipeline"
• "run secops scan"
• "refresh findings"
• "run live"

Exec command:

cd "$HOME/secopsai" && source .venv/bin/activate && \
  secopsai refresh --json && \
  secopsai list --severity high --json --cache-ttl 300

Agent behaviour:

• Run the pipeline once (refresh) and then list current high-severity findings.
• From the list JSON output, highlight NEW or HIGH/CRITICAL findings (based on

first_seen/last_seen fields when available).

Example reply:

> Daily SecOps summary: 3 high-severity findings.

>

> - HIGH: OCF-C9D2523C770B6731 — OpenClaw Dangerous Exec / Tool Burst (status=open)

> - HIGH: OCF-62FA8D1D3578BF6E — OpenClaw Sensitive Config (status=open)

>

> Reply triage OCF-... to mark as reviewed, or mitigate OCF-... for remediation steps.

3. Investigate a finding

User phrases:

• investigate SCM-
• triage OCF-
• investigate EXFIL-

Exec command:

cd "$HOME/secopsai" && source .venv/bin/activate && \
  secopsai triage investigate <FINDING_ID> --search-root "$HOME/secopsai" --json

Agent behaviour:

• Summarise:
• recommended disposition
• dependency presence
• policy matches
• verdict explanation
• next actions
• For supply-chain findings, if helpful, follow with:

cd "$HOME/secopsai" && source .venv/bin/activate && \
  secopsai supply-chain suggest-fp-action <FINDING_ID> --search-root "$HOME/secopsai" --json

4. Close a finding (WRITE)

Important: this modifies the local SOC store. Confirm with the user before running.

User phrases:

• close SCM- as expected_behavior
• close OCF- as needs_review note "..."

Exec command pattern:

cd "$HOME/secopsai" && source .venv/bin/activate && \
  secopsai triage close <FINDING_ID> --disposition <TYPE> --note "<analyst note>" --json

Agent behaviour:

Confirm back with the final status and disposition.

5. Show a single finding in detail

User phrases:

• show OCF-
• details OCF-

Exec command:

cd "$HOME/secopsai" && source .venv/bin/activate && \
  secopsai show OCF-<ID> --json

Agent behaviour:

Parse and summarise the JSON: title, severity, status, disposition, rule IDs,

number of events, first/last seen. Prefer the structured fields from

secopsai show and avoid re-parsing raw text.

6. Run the triage orchestrator (WRITE)

Important: this can auto-close clearly safe findings. Confirm with the user before running.

User phrases:

• run triage orchestrator
• orchestrate findings
• process open findings

Exec command:

cd "$HOME/secopsai" && source .venv/bin/activate && \
  secopsai triage orchestrate --search-root "$HOME/secopsai" --limit 20 --json

Agent behaviour:

• Summarise:
• processed
• auto_applied
• queued
• top per-finding outcomes
• If queued actions exist, offer:

cd "$HOME/secopsai" && source .venv/bin/activate && \
  secopsai triage queue --json

and, after approval:

cd "$HOME/secopsai" && source .venv/bin/activate && \
  secopsai triage apply-action ACT-0001 --yes --json

7. Check for malware or exfil

User phrases:

• "check malware"
• "check exfil"
• "check both"
• "any malware findings?"

Exec command pattern:

cd "$HOME/secopsai" && source .venv/bin/activate && \
  secopsai check --type <malware|exfil|both> --severity medium --json --cache-ttl 60

Agent behaviour:

Parse the JSON (check payload: findings_total, matched_count,

high_or_above, top_matches) and reply with a compact summary:

> Malware check: 2 matching findings (1 HIGH).

> Top: OCF-C9D2523C770B6731, HIGH — OpenClaw Dangerous Exec / Policy Denials.

8. Mitigate a finding (recommended actions)

User phrases:

• mitigate OCF-
• show mitigation OCF-
• what should I do for OCF-

Exec command:

cd "$HOME/secopsai" && source .venv/bin/activate && \
  secopsai mitigate OCF-<ID> --json --cache-ttl 60

Expected JSON fields: finding_id, title, severity, status,

disposition, rule_ids, recommended_actions (list of strings).

Agent behaviour:

Reply with a numbered list of the recommended_actions. Example:

> Mitigation steps for OCF-C9D2523C770B6731 (HIGH — OpenClaw Dangerous Exec / Tool Burst):

>

> 1. Identify which agent or skill issued the dangerous execs and confirm business justification.

> 2. If unauthorized, disable or restrict that skill/tool configuration in OpenClaw.

> 3. Rotate any secrets used in the commands (tokens, SSH keys, API keys).

> 4. Add stricter policy/approval requirements for high-risk exec operations.

If recommended_actions is empty or missing:

> No curated mitigation steps are available yet for this finding.

> Recommended next steps: review the associated events, confirm if the behaviour is expected, and restrict any over-permissive skills or credentials used.

Threat Intel (IOCs)

7. Refresh IOC feeds

User phrases:

• "refresh intel"
• "update iocs"
• "pull threat intel"

Exec command:

cd "$HOME/secopsai" && source .venv/bin/activate && \

• Parse total_scanned, malicious, benign, errors, and results.
• If malicious findings exist, list the SCM-... IDs and package versions.

Daily Summary (OpenClaw cron)

Configure an OpenClaw cron job to drive the secopsai CLI and produce a

concise chat summary.

• Schedule: 30 7 * (07:30 local)
• Action (systemEvent text):

[SECOPS_DAILY_SUMMARY_TRIGGER] Run the SecOpsAI pipeline and summarise new/high
findings for this chat.

Suggested steps for the agent:
1) cd "$HOME/secopsai" && source .venv/bin/activate
2) secopsai refresh --json
3) secopsai list --severity high --json --cache-ttl 300
4) Focus on high/critical findings first_seen in the last 24h.
5) Post a compact summary back into this conversation.

When this fires the agent should:

1. Execute the secopsai commands via exec.
2. Parse the JSON findings payload from secopsai list --severity high --json.
3. Post a summary: total count, HIGH/CRITICAL breakdown, and top finding IDs with

titles and status.

1. Invite the user to triage OCF-... or mitigate OCF-... any flagged item.
