What This Skill Does

HaS (Hide and Seek) is a powerful, on-device privacy protection tool for OpenClaw designed to secure both text and image assets. By leveraging a high-efficiency 0.6B privacy model for text and a robust YOLO11 segmentation model for images, HaS performs comprehensive anonymization directly on your local hardware. This ensures that sensitive information—whether it be PII in documents or identifiable features in photos—never leaves your secure local environment.

For text, it supports 8 global languages (zh/en/fr/de/es/pt/ja/ko) and allows for open-set entity identification, meaning you are not limited to standard tags. For images, it offers pixel-level masking across 21 distinct privacy categories including faces, fingerprints, identification cards, and license plates. The tool is designed to be seamless, providing options for mosaic, blur, or solid-fill masking to suit your specific aesthetic and security requirements.

Installation

You can install the HaS Privacy skill directly through your OpenClaw interface by executing the following command in your terminal:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/alohachen/has-privacy

Use Cases

• Cloud LLM Privacy: Anonymize sensitive text prompts before sending them to cloud-based LLMs, then use the restoration feature to revert the response back to its original context.
• Data Sharing: Redact names, addresses, or phone numbers in contracts, resumes, and emails before sharing with external parties.
• Photo Publishing: Automatically detect and mask sensitive biometric or personal markers in images before sharing them on social platforms or public sites.
• Ops & Support: Mask sensitive logs before handing them over to IT operations or external support teams to maintain strict data compliance.
• Workspace Auditing: Perform deep scans of directories to identify potential privacy leaks across mixed file formats.

Example Prompts

1. "Scan my project folder for any sensitive info. Please check both text files and images, and give me a report on the risk levels found."
2. "I need to upload this invoice to a public portal. Can you use the HaS tool to mask the license plate and home address, and use the blur method instead of mosaic?"
3. "Anonymize this document containing customer names before I paste it into the chat, and make sure to save the original safely just in case I need the raw data back."

Tips & Limitations

• Non-destructive workflows: HaS is designed to protect your data. Always output anonymized results to new files; the tool does not overwrite original source data.
• Text extraction: HaS handles plaintext natively. If you are working with PDFs or scanned documents, use an OCR utility first to convert them to text so the engine can process them.
• Customization: You can always override defaults. Use the --types flag to specify exactly what to target, or adjust the --strength flag to increase/decrease the intensity of your chosen mask (default is 15).
• Speed: Always check the provided elapsed time after a scan to optimize your batch processing workflows.
