📄 Description

Context: report of suspected malware distribution via GitHub release keepcold131/ClawdAuthenticatorTool.

Reasons this looks malicious / unsafe:

  • Repo contains no source code (only a 63-byte README).
  • Release asset is a large (~104MB) zip.
  • Zip appears to be password-protected (can list entries but cannot extract without password), which is commonly used to evade automated scanning.

This PR adds a narrow, explicit block:

  • Add moderation flag blocked.malware for identifiers matching keepcold131/ClawdAuthenticatorTool.
  • Hide any skill/soul carrying that flag (or moderationStatus != active) from public listings via toPublicSkill / toPublicSoul.

No attempt is made to download/execute the file.
