WHAT IT DOES

What openclaw_send_session does on LocalAnt

AI agents invoke openclaw_send_session to trigger actions in LocalAnt. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

RISK

Why openclaw_send_session is rated High

Sending a message to an external session (OpenClaw) constitutes triggering an external operation whose effects depend on the message content. Given the server context (shell, browser automation), the session could execute arbitrary actions. Confidence is reduced due to the DEPRECATED flag and lack of detail about what OpenClaw is or does.

From the tool's definition 'Send a message to an OpenClaw session' — triggers external operation on a running session; server description mentions 'shell commands, browser automation' context; marked DEPRECATED

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs openclaw_send_session safely

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

openclaw_send_session Rate-limited

openclaw_send_session stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
