ClawBands is a security middleware for OpenClaw AI agents that provides runtime interception with human-in-the-loop approval. It hooks into OpenClaw's plugin system to intercept tool executions (file operations, shell commands, network requests) and enforces policy-based decisions before allowing potentially dangerous actions. The system operates in two modes: terminal mode with interactive prompts, and channel mode (WhatsApp/Telegram) using a special response tool. Every decision is logged to an immutable JSON Lines audit trail, and statistics are tracked. The architecture features clean separation of concerns with distinct modules for policy interception, decision arbitration, approval queuing, logging, and storage.
