WHAT IT DOES

What note does on OpenClaw

AI agents use note to create or update resources in OpenClaw, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your OpenClaw environment.

RISK

Why note is rated Medium

This tool allows creation or modification of notes associated with feedback uploads. The optional nature and feedback context suggest a reversible write operation with minimal side effects. No code execution, data deletion, or financial impact is evident. Confidence is moderate (0.7) because the description is minimal and lacks explicit detail about the exact write operation performed.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'note' combined with description 'Optional note for Codex feedback upload' indicates creating or adding a textual note/annotation for feedback purposes.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs note safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and OpenClaw, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For note, this is the rule to start with:

note Rate-limited

note stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
