Phishing Email Checker

OpenClaw lets you run phishing checks across an entire backlog of reported emails in a single batch job. This is the right approach when the triage queue is large, when you want to run the same check on a set of emails from a specific campaign, or when you need to schedule recurring inbox monitoring.

Connect ToolRouter to OpenClaw

1Install the CLI
npm install -g toolrouter-mcp
2Call tools directly from OpenClaw
toolrouter-mcp call web-search search --query "AI tools"
toolrouter-mcp tools

Steps

Once connected (see setup above), use the Phishing Email Checker tool:

  1. Export the email backlog — headers and content — from your email security gateway or ticketing system.
  2. Run `phishing-email-checker` with `check_email` for each email and collect results in a normalized schema.
  3. Filter to confirmed phishing verdicts and sort by confidence score to prioritize the clearest threats.
  4. Generate a batch triage report for the security team with verdict, indicators, and recommended action per email.

Example Prompt

Try this with OpenClaw using the Phishing Email Checker tool
Use phishing-email-checker to analyze these reported emails in batch: [email 1 headers + content], [email 2 headers + content], [email 3 headers + content]. Return each result with verdict, confidence_score, indicators, and recommended_action in a stable schema. Flag any confirmed phishing as high priority.

Tips

  • Process the full triage backlog in one batch job rather than one at a time to clear the queue faster.
  • Sort by confidence score descending so the clearest phishing cases are reviewed and actioned first.
  • Schedule a daily batch run on flagged emails from your email gateway to keep triage latency low.
