How to install soul-guardian?
prompt-security/clawsec/soul-guardian
$npx -y skills add prompt-security/clawsec --skill soul-guardianDrift detection + baseline integrity guard for agent workspace files with automatic alerting support
SKILL.md
| 1 | # soul-guardian 👻 |
| 2 | |
| 3 | Protects your agent's core files (SOUL.md, AGENTS.md, etc.) from unauthorized changes with automatic detection, restoration, and **user alerting**. |
| 4 | |
| 5 | ## Vercel Skills Installation |
| 6 | |
| 7 | Install with the Vercel Skills CLI for this harness: |
| 8 | |
| 9 | ```bash |
| 10 | npx skills add prompt-security/clawsec --skill soul-guardian -a openclaw -y |
| 11 | ``` |
| 12 | |
| 13 | ## Operational Notes |
| 14 | |
| 15 | - Required runtime: `python3` |
| 16 | - Optional runtime: `openclaw` for cron integration, `launchctl` for macOS scheduling, `bash` for the demo helper |
| 17 | - Side effects: can auto-restore protected files to their approved baseline and writes audit/quarantine state locally |
| 18 | - Network behavior: none by default |
| 19 | - Trust model: any scheduling is opt-in, but restore mode intentionally overwrites drifted files |
| 20 | |
| 21 | ## Release Artifact Verification |
| 22 | |
| 23 | For standalone installs, verify the signed release manifest before trusting `SKILL.md`, `skill.json`, or the archive. The `skill.json` file is the package metadata/SBOM source, and the release pipeline signs `checksums.json` with the ClawSec release key. |

| 99 | |
| 100 | ## Quick Start (3 Steps) |
| 101 | |
| 102 | ### Step 1: Initialize baselines |
| 103 | ```bash |
| 104 | cd ~/.openclaw/workspace |
| 105 | python3 skills/soul-guardian/scripts/soul_guardian.py init --actor setup --note "initial baseline" |
| 106 | ``` |
| 107 | |
| 108 | ### Step 2: Enable monitoring |
| 109 | ```bash |
| 110 | python3 skills/soul-guardian/scripts/soul_guardian.py enable-monitoring |
| 111 | ``` |
| 112 | This shows you how to add monitoring to your workflow. |
| 113 | |
| 114 | ### Step 3: Add to HEARTBEAT.md (Recommended) |
| 115 | |
| 116 | Add this to your HEARTBEAT.md for automatic monitoring: |
| 117 | |
| 118 | ```markdown |
| 119 | ## Soul Guardian Check |
| 120 | - Run `python3 skills/soul-guardian/scripts/soul_guardian.py check --actor heartbeat --output-format alert` |
| 121 | - If any output is produced, relay it to the user immediately as a security alert |
| 122 | ``` |
| 123 | |
| 124 | That's it! Soul Guardian will now: |
| 125 | - ✅ Detect unauthorized changes to protected files |
| 126 | - ✅ Auto-restore SOUL.md and AGENTS.md to approved baseline |
| 127 | - ✅ Alert you when drift is detected and handled |
| 128 | |
| 129 | --- |
| 130 | |
| 131 | ## What it protects (default policy) |
| 132 | |
| 133 | | File | Mode | Action on drift | |
| 134 | |------|------|-----------------| |
| 135 | | SOUL.md | restore | Auto-restore + alert | |
| 136 | | AGENTS.md | restore | Auto-restore + alert | |
| 137 | | USER.md | alert | Alert only | |
| 138 | | TOOLS.md | alert | Alert only | |
| 139 | | IDENTITY.md | alert | Alert only | |
| 140 | | HEARTBEAT.md | alert | |
