Use Caution4.8High Risk

OpenClaw MCP is a well-architected OAuth 2.1-authenticated bridge to OpenClaw AI assistants with proper input validation, secure token handling, and appropriate permission scoping. Minor issues include unvalidated dynamic client registration in development mode and some incomplete input validation in async task handlers, but these are low-severity concerns that do not undermine the overall security posture. Supply chain analysis found 5 known vulnerabilities in dependencies (1 critical, 2 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue.
