What This Skill Does
Lightweight skill for obfuscating text messages between OpenClaw agents using HMAC-SHA256. Produces a deterministic, reversible digit stream from any string, preventing plain-text leaks in transit. Free public version of the commercial VectorGuard system.
Uses Node.js built-in crypto with no external dependencies, so setup requires only agreeing on a shared secret.
When to use it
- Obfuscating sensitive messages before sending through Slack or Telegram
- Encoding confidential Moltbook posts to prevent plain-text exposure
- Securing agent-to-agent communications with a shared passphrase
- Decoding received encoded strings from a trusted peer agent
- Obscuring IPFS links before sharing in public channels
Example Workflow
Here's how your AI assistant might use this skill in practice.
INPUT
User asks: "Securely send 'Meeting at 3pm' to agent-finance with secret 'alpha42'"
AGENT
- 1Confirms the shared secret passphrase and target agent ID
- 2Records or generates the current timestamp
- 3Calls secureSend('Meeting at 3pm', 'alpha42', 'agent-finance')
- 4Returns the encoded string and timestamp used
OUTPUT
Encoded obfuscated string plus timestamp, ready to transmit to agent-finance
