CRITICAL UPDATE: Defense against REAL sophisticated jailbreak techniques
Context:
After real-world testing, we discovered that most attacks DON'T use obvious patterns like "ignore previous instructions." Expert attackers use sophisticated techniques with documented success rates of 45-84%.

END OF SKILL
Generated Mar 1, 2026
A banking chatbot handling customer queries about accounts and transactions uses this skill to detect attempts to extract system prompts or inject malicious instructions, ensuring compliance and preventing fraud. It blocks multi-lingual evasion tactics like code-switching in requests for sensitive data.
An AI assistant in a hospital setting processes patient inquiries and medical data, employing this skill to prevent role-hijack attacks that could lead to unauthorized access or manipulation of health records. It logs all tool calls in alert mode for audit trails.
An e-commerce platform's AI support agent uses this skill to sanitize user inputs before processing orders or handling returns, blocking prompt injection attempts that might bypass pricing rules or extract configuration details. It applies penalty scoring to flag repeated suspicious probes.
A legal tech AI analyzes contracts and legal documents, leveraging this skill to detect indirect injection via embedded malicious instructions in emails or documents, preventing system extraction and ensuring data integrity. Semantic analysis catches paraphrased extraction attempts.
An online tutoring AI interacts with students, using this skill to block emotional manipulation and poetry-based jailbreaks that could alter its educational role or extract proprietary teaching algorithms. It enforces lockdown mode for severe threats.
Offer this skill as a cloud-based API service with tiered pricing based on usage volume and security levels, targeting enterprises needing real-time AI input protection. Revenue comes from monthly subscriptions and premium support for high-security needs.
Sell perpetual licenses for on-premise deployment in regulated industries like finance and healthcare, where data must stay in-house. Revenue includes upfront licensing fees and annual maintenance contracts for updates and support.
Provide a free basic version with limited features to attract developers and small businesses, then upsell to advanced plans with multi-layer defense and priority alerts. Revenue is generated from premium upgrades and custom integration services.
💬 Integration Tip
Integrate this skill at the very start of your AI pipeline to pre-process all inputs and outputs, ensuring it runs before any other logic to maximize protection.
Set up and use 1Password CLI (op). Use when installing the CLI, enabling desktop app integration, signing in (single or multi-account), or reading/injecting/running secrets via op.
Security-first skill vetting for AI agents. Use before installing any skill from ClawdHub, GitHub, or other sources. Checks for red flags, permission scope, and suspicious patterns.
Perform a comprehensive read-only security audit of Clawdbot's own configuration. This is a knowledge-based skill that teaches Clawdbot to identify hardening opportunities across the system. Use when user asks to "run security check", "audit clawdbot", "check security hardening", or "what vulnerabilities does my Clawdbot have". This skill uses Clawdbot's internal capabilities and file system access to inspect configuration, detect misconfigurations, and recommend remediations. It is designed to be extensible - new checks can be added by updating this skill's knowledge.
Use when reviewing code for security vulnerabilities, implementing authentication flows, auditing OWASP Top 10, configuring CORS/CSP headers, handling secrets, input validation, SQL injection prevention, XSS protection, or any security-related code review.
Security check for ClawHub skills powered by Koi. Query the Clawdex API before installing any skill to verify it's safe.
Scan Clawdbot and MCP skills for malware, spyware, crypto-miners, and malicious code patterns before you install them. Security audit tool that detects data exfiltration, system modification attempts, backdoors, and obfuscation techniques.
