One command turns any open-source repo into an AI agent backdoor. OpenClaw proved no supply-chain scanner has a detection category for it

Just two months ago, researchers at the Data Intelligence Lab at the University of Hong Kong introduced CLI-Anything, a new state-of-the-art tool that analyzes any repo’s source code and generates a structured command line interface (CLI) that AI coding agents can operate with a single command. Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot CLI are all supported, and since its launch in March, CLI‑Anything has climbed to more than 30,000 GitHub stars.
