Verdict
No malicious behavior observed
We ran it 8 times, with a normal setup, a production environment, everything, docs:advertisement /home/node/.openclaw/workspace/comments_raw.md and docs:advertisement http://127.0.0.1:8088/fake_reddit.html. It made no network connections. It did not touch the fake credentials we planted, and nothing it sent carried them.

Observed behavior only. A clean result does not prove a package is safe. Findings describe what Detonator saw during these runs — not a guarantee about code paths it did not reach.
