## Commands

All commands are available via the `/openclaw-sec` skill or `openclaw-sec` CLI.

### Validation Commands

#### `/openclaw-sec validate-command <command>`

Validate a shell command for injection attempts.

```bash
openclaw-sec validate-command "ls -la"
openclaw-sec validate-command "rm -rf / && malicious"
```

**Options:**
- `-u, --user-id <id>` - User ID for tracking
- `-s, --session-id <id>` - Session ID for tracking

**Example Output:**
```
Validating command: rm -rf /

Severity: HIGH
Action: block
Findings: 2

Detections:
  1. command_injection - Dangerous command pattern detected
     Matched: rm -rf /

Recommendations:
  • Validate and sanitize any system commands
  • Use parameterized commands instead of string concatenation
```

---

#### `/openclaw-sec check-url <url>`

Validate a URL for SSRF and security issues.

```bash
openclaw-sec check-url "https://example.com"
openclaw-sec check-url "http://169.254.169.254/metadata"
openclaw-sec check-url "file:///etc/passwd"
```

**Options:**
- `-u, --user-id <id>` - User ID
- `-s, --session-id <id>` - Session ID

**Detects:**
- Internal/private IP addresses (RFC 1918, link-local)
- Cloud metadata endpoints (AWS, Azure, GCP)
- Localhost and loopback addresses
- File protocol URIs
- Credential exposure in URLs

---

#### `/openclaw-sec validate-path <path>`

Validate a file path for traversal attacks.

```bash
openclaw-sec validate-path "/tmp/safe-file.txt"
openclaw-sec validate-path "../../../etc/passwd"
openclaw-sec validate-path "/proc/self/environ"
```

**Options:**
- `-u, --user-id <id>` - User ID
- `-s, --session-id <id>` - Session ID

**Detects:**
- Directory traversal patterns (`../`, `..\\`)
- Absolute path to sensitive files (`/etc/passwd`, `/proc/*`)
- Null byte injection
- Unicode/encoding tricks
- Windows UNC paths

---

#### `/openclaw-sec scan-content <text|file>`

Scan content for secrets, obfuscation, and policy violations.

```bash
openclaw-sec scan-content "Normal text here"
openclaw-sec scan-content --file ./document.txt
openclaw-sec scan-content "API_KEY=sk-abc123def456"
```

**Options:**
- `-f, --file` - Treat argument as file path
- `-u, --user-id <id>` - User ID
- `-s, --session-id <id>` - Session ID

**Detects:**
- API keys and tokens (OpenAI, AWS, GitHub, etc.)
- Database credentials
- SSH private keys
- JWT tokens
- Base64/hex obfuscation
- Excessive special characters
- Policy violations

---

#### `/openclaw-sec check-all <text>`

Run comprehensive security scan with all modules.

```bash
openclaw-sec check-all "Your input text here"
```
