ClawMaven Observer — Continuous AI Agent Governance Monitoring
Version: 1.10.37 | Owner: Master 22 Solutions | ClawMaven AI Governance Platform
ClawMaven Observer (/observer) is a standing third-party governance layer for your agent stack, at $497 per month. Not a scan, and not a one-time report you file and forget: a continuous relationship with an outside party who holds the evidence, notices when things drift, and can produce a tamper-evident record on demand. No audit is required to start. Manage or cancel your subscription any time through the Stripe billing portal.
ClawMaven is independent assurance, not a tool. We look at what you actually deployed and put our name on the finding.
What You Get
- Monthly configuration review — Your live agent configuration checked against your governance pack, with a written drift report
- Policy updates — New failure modes seen in the wild are pushed to your pack as policy updates
- Incident intake — A 48-hour written assessment when something goes wrong
- Quarterly tamper-evident evidence bundle — Hash-chained audit log, trust manifest for every policy file, and a verify.sh script anyone can run
- A named outside party — Someone you can point to by name when a customer, insurer, or auditor asks
Why Now
In September 2026, Anthropic committed to giving outside evaluators permanent, employee-level access to its systems, and OpenAI said it would follow. The precedent they cited was banking, where supervisors sit inside the institution rather than visiting once a year. That norm travels downhill through vendor oversight and model risk rules: regulators already ask banks who owns each AI system, whether it can reach data beyond its authority, whether it can be shut down, and whether the vendor's vendor meets the same bar. Observer is that layer for companies that will never have a resident inspector.
Who It Is For
Companies running agents with real permissions: money, customer data, code, outbound communication, or anything that can act without a human in the loop. A single chatbot answering FAQs on a marketing site does not need this.
Evidence, not promises
Site claims are derived from code constants, checked by drift tests on every release, published in a claims audit, and re-checked on the live site after each deploy. The claims audit is public at /claims-audit. Governance packs adopted under Observer can carry the scanner_pass gate: A governance pack can require a clean Cisco Skill Scanner or Cisco MCP Scanner report before a skill or MCP server is promoted. You run the scanner and place the JSON report in the pack's evidence/scans/ folder; ClawMaven validates that a scan ran and passed by reading the report's findings, never the scanner's exit code.
An Honest Note
No law requires this today. A duty-of-care bill is drafted in the US Senate and may or may not pass. Observer is the ability to answer a question your buyers are already starting to ask, and a record that holds up if the rule does arrive.
Pricing
$497 per month, billed monthly. Manage or cancel your subscription any time through the Stripe billing portal. Your evidence bundles remain yours. If you would rather have a governance pack built for you first, the Governance Audit starts at $2,500 and is delivered in 5 business days — a separate, optional offer.

Key Platform Features
Governance Wizard
24-step guided wizard: agent goal, operator mode, runtime target, budget caps, forbidden actions, model routing, scheduling, escalation rules, skill sources, and risk thresholds. Live Autonomy Intensity Meter (0–100) with top-3 risk drivers. Four editions: Solo, Trading, Agency, Enterprise. Five governance templates: Research, Content, DevOps, Support, Trading.
Config Scout (/optimize)
Upload or paste any existing AI agent config. Scans against 40+ heuristic patterns across all 5 heuristic runtimes (Google ADK, OpenAI Agents SDK, LangGraph, CrewAI, Claude / Anthropic SDK). Returns suggested fixes and a governance pack. Closes compliance gaps in seconds. Available in Builder and above.
Runtime Hygiene Engine (/hygiene)
7-card advisory dashboard: Session file count, session registry size, large session transcripts, orphaned session references, scheduler / cron log size, stale path references and overall cleanup confidence. Generates maintenance policies and actionable repair commands.
Auditor Compliance Summary
10-section compliance summary bundled in every governance ZIP. Covers EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001, SOC 2, and GDPR. EU AI Act coverage spans Articles 9, 10, 13, 14, 17 and 62. The EU AI Omnibus (Regulation (EU) 2026/1744, in force 27 July 2026) moved stand-alone high-risk (Annex III) obligations to 2 December 2027 and product-embedded (Annex I) to 2 August 2028. Article 50 transparency obligations have applied since 2 August 2026.
Skill Assurance Pipeline (/skill-health)
5-stage validation: Stage 1 Health Scoring and Drift Detection, Stage 2 Incident Classification, Stage 3 Candidate Improvement Drafts, Stage 4 Candidate Validation, Stage 5 Promotion Gates. Stages 1–2 free; stages 3–5 require Builder or above.
Run Monitoring Dashboard (/monitor)
Your agents send their own run reports to POST /api/runs/ingest with an API key; ClawMaven does not connect to or watch your runtime. The /monitor dashboard lists the reports it receives by agent (status, last-seen time, error counts), re-fetches them every 30 seconds while Live mode is on, applies alert rules for cost spikes, error rates and budget breaches, and exports an incident summary for compliance review. Team and Enterprise.
Custom Skills Generator (/skills-generator)
Runtime-agnostic 6-step wizard for building custom AI agent skills with defined inputs, outputs, permissions, and safety rails. ZIP README includes Runtime Quick-Start install guides for OpenClaw, CrewAI, LangGraph, Agent Zero, and NullClaw. Builder/Team tiers.
OpenClaw Repair CLI (/cli)
Standalone Node.js tool (clawmaven binary) for diagnosing and repairing OpenClaw installations. Commands: diagnose, repair, install --patch-anthropic, guardian (live watchdog). Fixes 1006 gateway errors, corrupted config.json, OAuth silent failures, budget bleed.
