Description

Summary:
NemoClaw appears to inject a github network policy+binary into the effective sandbox policy even when the user did not explicitly select any GitHub-related preset. The visible policy presets list does not include a github preset, so the permission is not user-discoverable or user-controllable.>>>nemoclaw status

  • That policy allows:
    • github.com:443
    • api.github.com:443
  • It also whitelists binaries:
    • /usr/bin/git
    • /usr/bin/gh

While during onboarding

  Available policy presets:
     [ ] brave          — Brave Search API access
     [ ] discord        — Discord API, gateway, and CDN access
     [ ] docker         — Docker Hub and NVIDIA container registry access
     [ ] huggingface    — Hugging Face Hub, LFS, and Inference API access
     [ ] jira           — Jira and Atlassian Cloud access
     [✓] npm            — npm and Yarn registry access
     [ ] outlook        — Microsoft Outlook and Graph API access
     [✓] pypi           — Python Package Index (PyPI) access
   > [✓] slack          — Slack API, Socket Mode, and webhooks access
     [ ] telegram       — Telegram Bot API access

Steps to reproduce:

  1. nemoclaw onboard → check policy presets -> complete onboard -> there is not github policy presets
  2. nemoclaw status -> there are github policy and binary
  3. And user can do git clone inside sandbox

Expected behavior:

  • GitHub access should not be added unless explicitly selected by the user, or
  • GitHub should be exposed as a visible preset so the user can audit and control it

Environment

  • NemoClaw v0.0.7
  • OpenShell 0.0.23
  • OpenClaw 2026.3.11
  • Node.js 22.22.1
