gov_audit
Run post-bootstrap or post-migration governance audit.
Why use this skill?
Automate governance integrity checks for your OpenClaw workspace. Validate migrations, ensure system-truth compliance, and maintain audit trails with the gov_audit skill.
Install via CLI (Recommended)
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/adamchanadam/gov-auditWhat This Skill Does
The gov_audit skill is an essential diagnostic utility for OpenClaw users, designed to ensure governance integrity throughout the lifecycle of an AI agent's workspace. Whether you are performing a fresh bootstrap of a new environment or managing a complex migration of governance logic, this skill automates the validation process to ensure compliance with system standards. It acts as a final gatekeeper, systematically cross-referencing your current configuration against the required _control/REGRESSION_CHECK.md protocol. By enforcing strict path compatibility and verifying that all system-truth claims are backed by official documentation and release sources, gov_audit prevents the accumulation of technical debt and configuration drift. It maintains an audit trail in the _runs/ directory and updates the _control/WORKSPACE_INDEX.md, ensuring that every audit is logged and traceable for future compliance reviews.
Installation
To integrate this auditing capability into your OpenClaw environment, execute the following command in your terminal:
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/adamchanadam/gov-audit
Ensure that you have appropriate write permissions in your current workspace, as the skill needs to modify the _runs/ and _control/ directories.
Use Cases
- Post-Bootstrap Validation: Run this immediately after initializing a new project to ensure the baseline governance structure is correctly applied.
- Migration Integrity: Use this when moving from an older version of OpenClaw or refactoring your local workspace to confirm that no governance anchors have been broken.
- Compliance Reporting: Utilize the output reports for team reviews or technical audits, providing documented evidence that system claims and backup procedures are in order.
- Platform Change Verification: Essential when performing significant control-plane adjustments, ensuring that backups are correctly staged and changes have followed the approved execution path.
Example Prompts
- "/gov_audit: Perform a full governance integrity check on the current workspace after the recent migration."
- "/skill gov_audit: Execute a regression audit and verify that all system-truth claims are correctly cited with the latest release links."
- "Run a gov_audit to ensure my recent platform changes are backed up and the _control/WORKSPACE_INDEX.md is updated."
Tips & Limitations
- Strict Pathing: Always ensure your governance files use relative paths or workspace-root macros. Hardcoding absolute paths will result in a validation failure.
- Documentation Links: The skill is highly sensitive to citations. Ensure that every 'system truth' statement you provide is anchored to the official OpenClaw documentation or GitHub release tags.
- Persistence: If you do not see a report in
_runs/, verify that your current governance flow is configured to allow persistence. This skill requires write access to the workspace to function effectively and log results.
