ClawSentry: A Progressive Multi-Tier Security Monitor for Safeguarding Autonomous LLM Agents

As large language model (LLM) agents move from conversation to executing code, reading local files, and orchestrating external tools, a single agent hijacked by a malicious third-party skill can cause data exfiltration, privilege escalation, or cascading compromise. We argue that agentic risk is progressive: it can enter at four loci of the agent control loop--skill admission, invocation-time intent, execution-time effect, and post-action consequence--while a denied dangerous objective can reappear across surface forms, tools, or turns; existing safeguards are typically local to one lifecycle boundary or one call. Guided by this threat model, we present ClawSentry, an open-source, framework-agnostic security supervision gateway for agent runtimes. Before a skill package is ever executed, First-use Skill Package Review (FSPR) audits it under a deterministic evidence floor, escalating unresolved cases to bounded read-only agentic review (locus A). At runtime, a three-tier progressive decision engine--a deterministic L1 layer, a rule-anchored L2 semantic reviewer, and a read-only L3 evidence-seeking agent--spends contextual review only on the residual ambiguity, while a session-level anti-bypass mechanism recognizes tool-switching and rephrased retries (loci B--C); a post-action path feeds high-severity evidence non-retroactively into later review (locus D). An Agent Harness Protocol (AHP) abstraction applies one policy across Codex, Claude Code, Kimi CLI, and Gemini CLI without modifying agent internals. On SkillInject with Codex/GPT-5.4, contextual ASR falls from 39.55% to 2.61% while contextual TSR moves only from 83.78% to 83.05%. Across five Work Agents on the full SkillsSafety benchmark, ClawSentry confines ASR to 9.09--15.03% from 33.5--49.7% unprotected, and aggregate TSR on clean skills remains 98.7%.

Evolving Agentic Workflow Driven by Human-Agent Collaboration

Agentic workflows, composed of multiple collaborating Large Language Models (LLMs), have become a key paradigm for complex problem-solving. However, their effectiveness is often hindered by three critical challenges: high manual design costs, inefficient agentic search, and poor dynamic adaptability to new tasks and human preferences. To address these limitations, we propose HFlow, an evolutionary framework for generating agentic workflows through human-agent collaboration. HFlow employs an evolutionary algorithm to automate the search for optimal workflows by mutating and crossing over their structures, prompts, and LLM backbones. This process is guided by human preferences to ensure rapid convergence, while a hierarchical experience memory enables the generalization of learned strategies. Extensive experiments on math and code generation benchmarks show HFlow surpasses other automated baselines by up to 27.34%, while achieving comparable performance to o1-preview at only one-fourth of the cost. Our work introduces a new paradigm for workflow design that produces cost-effective and adaptive solutions, better aligning automated agen-tic systems with dynamic human needs.
