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:

bash

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:

bash

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-<ID>
• triage OCF-<ID>
• investigate EXFIL-<ID>

Exec command:

bash

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:

bash

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-<ID> as expected_behavior
• close OCF-<ID> as needs_review note "..."

Exec command pattern:

bash

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-<ID>
• details OCF-<ID>

Exec command:

bash

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:

bash

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:

bash

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

and, after approval:

bash

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:

bash

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-<ID>
• show mitigation OCF-<ID>
• what should I do for OCF-<ID>

Exec command:

bash

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.

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):

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