Claw Hunter is an open-source security tool designed to detect, analyze, and mitigate risks associated with autonomous AI agents, specifically those built on platforms like OpenClaw. As agentic AI systems gain popularity, they introduce a new class of security challenges because they can execute commands, access files, and interact with external systems with minimal human oversight. Claw-Hunter addresses this emerging threat landscape by providing visibility into these agents, helping organizations identify instances running within their environments. It focuses on uncovering “shadow AI,” which refers to unauthorized or unmanaged AI agents that operate outside traditional security controls. The tool performs risk assessment by auditing agent permissions, capabilities, and access levels, allowing security teams to evaluate potential attack surfaces. It also helps ensure that these agents do not unintentionally expose sensitive data or create unauthorized access paths across systems.

Features

  • Discovery of AI agents running in local or enterprise environments
  • Detection of shadow AI instances outside traditional governance
  • Auditing of agent permissions and access privileges
  • Risk assessment of autonomous agent capabilities
  • Identification of potential data exposure and attack surfaces
  • Support for securing AI-native development and automation workflows
