A policy enforcement daemon that blocks prompt-injection config rewrites on self-hosted OpenClaw agents running on NVIDIA RTX hardware

OpenClaw agents running on local hardware like NVIDIA RTX Spark and DGX are still vulnerable to prompt-injection attacks that rewrite sandbox policies, plugin permissions, and routing hooks (CVE-2026-35650). Existing solutions are either cloud-only (E2B, Microsoft MXC) or require enterprise Kubernetes stacks (NemoClaw, ClawArmor). Self-hosters on consumer NVIDIA hardware have no lightweight way to enforce immutable security policies. This daemon sits between the LLM and the agent gateway as a sidecar process, validating every config mutation against a locked policy file and rejecting anything that touches sandbox rules, SSRF protections, or filesystem hardening without explicit operator approval.

Gap Assessment

CompetitiveMultiple tools exist but differentiation opportunities remain

4 tools exist (NVIDIA NemoClaw, ClawArmor (AccuKnox), Microsoft Agent Governance Toolkit, E2B) but gaps remain: Requires NVIDIA enterprise infrastructure. No lightweight sidecar option for self-hosters on consumer RTX hardware. Does not enforce immutable config policies against prompt injection.; Requires Kubernetes and KubeArmor stack. Not practical for single-machine self-hosted setups or consumer hardware. Enterprise-focused pricing..

Features5 agent-ready prompts

Sidecar process that intercepts all gateway config PATCH requests, diffs them against an immutable policy.lock file, and rejects mutations to sandbox/SSRF/filesystem keys
▶
CLI tool that generates a policy.lock file from an existing OpenClaw config by snapshotting all security-relevant settings and marking them immutable
▶
Real-time alert system that notifies the operator via webhook or local notification when a prompt-injection attempt tries to modify agent security policies
▶
NVIDIA GPU detection and local model verification that confirms the agent is running inference locally and not routing to cloud APIs
▶
One-click installer script for NVIDIA RTX Spark and DGX hardware that sets up OpenClaw + NemoClaw + policy daemon with hardened defaults
