A Unit 42 post on OpenClaw's skill marketplace and the emerging AI supply-chain threat. The companion cites its June 2026 finding of agent skills, automatic code published by people, that preyed on the agents installing them: one pooled their funds into its operator's wallet, another swapped in its publisher's referral links. It is a case of agents as prey in the food web.
