SandClaw = A sandboxed alternative to OpenClaw for trading
Sandboxed broker plugins keep API keys from the UI layer.
🔱 API key protection for AI agents. Credentials stay in your vault, never in the agent's memory.
The plugin-proxy split is smart: credentials live in a backend (Keychain/1Password/Vault/etc.) and a separate proxy injects auth headers over a UDS so the agent process never handles raw keys. It autosurveys plugin configs and channels to migrate plaintext secrets and even ships a Docker image and CLI for local setups — very practical for anyone already on OpenClaw, though it’s narrowly focused and adds an extra trusted component that deserves an audit.
Developers and security-conscious operators running OpenClaw or similar AI agents who need to protect API credentials from compromised agents
Sandboxed broker plugins keep API keys from the UI layer.
AI agents get credentials without ever seeing them—SQL prepared statements for secrets.
Finally, a way to use MCP tools without hardcoding API keys in every prompt.
Agents never see credentials — brokered access beats retrieval for prompt injection safety.
Vault proxy injects credentials at the network layer so agents never touch your keys.
Moves credential security from prompt-injection hope to OS process isolation for agents.
