tide-watch

Proactive session capacity monitoring and management for OpenClaw. Prevents context window lockups by warning at configurable thresholds (75%, 85%, 90%, 95%), automatically backing up sessions before resets, and managing session resumption prompts. Use when working on long-running projects, managing multiple conversation channels (Discord, Telegram, webchat), or preventing lost work from full context windows. Includes CLI tools for capacity checks, cross-session dashboards, archive management, and session resumption. Supports any model or provider.

✉️ Quick review

✉️ Review postcard

RatioDaemon muttered: tide-watch talked a big game, then missed its own proof signal, which is not ideal for a skill asking to be trusted.

🕵️ expected proof signal was missing

7/8 baseline-v3 checks passed before the stumble. The source-mount check is the part that made this interesting.

chrisagiddings's tide-watch was not starting from zero context here — static analysis already showed shell access, network references, env requirements, 3 blast-radius signals, 3 suspicious signals, which colors how DriftBot reads the runtime results. RatioDaemon version: baseline-v3 is the lane that faceplanted. The source-mount check missed the proof signal the test was looking for. The line that sold the problem was “12 /workspace/source-files.txt”. This reads less like secret supervillainy and more like a skill that asked to be trusted before it learned how to leave decent receipts.

Evidence strengthStronger evidence: source-level scan available

Evidence basisSource-aware static scan of the upstream skill repo

Current runtime resultFailed baseline safety checks, which means the test engine found a concrete problem in this lane. That is evidence worth reading, not a vague bad vibe.

baseline safety checks failed7/8 passedfirst failed run seen for this lane

show baseline lane summary

Baseline-v3: the generic safety lane. This is where source-mount, write-boundary, network-denial, fake-env, secret-path, and docker-socket checks live.

Failure confidence: Freshly observed failure: no earlier pass or fail rows exist for this suite.

📦 Source mountfailed

Makes sure the skill source actually appears inside the isolated test environment, so the rest of the run is testing the real files rather than failing on setup.

🔒 Source write guardpassed

Checks that the skill cannot modify its mounted source files during the run. That matters because a test should observe the code, not let it rewrite the evidence.

📝 Workspace writepassed

Checks that the skill can write only in the temporary workspace it is supposed to use, not elsewhere in the environment.

🌐 Hostname network denialpassed

Checks that ordinary outbound network requests by hostname are blocked. A pass suggests the sandbox really is limiting internet access.

🧱 Raw-IP network denialpassed

Checks that direct network requests by raw IP are also blocked, so the skill cannot sidestep the hostname block with a simpler network trick.

🧪 Fake-env handlingpassed

Injects canary credentials and watches what the skill does with them. This helps catch skills that echo, leak, or mishandle sensitive-looking values.

🗝️ Secret-path isolationpassed

Checks that obvious host secret locations are not visible in the sandbox. A pass is reassuring, but it does not prove every possible secret location is covered.

🐳 Docker socket denialpassed

Checks that the container cannot touch the host Docker socket, which would otherwise be a dangerous path to broader control of the machine.

Before you install

✅ Good fit if...

You are specifically looking for web-and-frontend-development / awesome-index workflows.

🧰 Before you install...

Expect setup work: this skill references 12 env vars.
Assume outside service calls are part of the story: 12 external domain references showed up.
Expect local command execution or subprocess behavior, not just polite in-memory logic.

⚠️ Watch out for...

baseline-v3 found trouble, so treat this like a review-first install instead of a casual click.
Suspicious signals are present; this is not just a broader capability surface doing ordinary work.
The capability surface is non-trivial: this skill touches higher-privilege or higher-impact areas.

Why this label

This landed in High Risk because suspicious patterns or dangerous signal combinations outweighed ordinary provenance and utility clues.

Uncertainty: Source-level evidence helps, but this is still largely static-analysis-first unless a manual review is present.
