Summary OpenClaw skills-install-download: tar.bz2 extraction bypassed archive safety parity checks (local DoS) The `tar.bz2` installer path in `src/agents/skills-install-download.ts` used shell tar preflight/extract logic that did not share the same hardening guarantees as the centralized archive extractor. This allowed crafted `.tar.bz2` archives to bypass special-entry blocking and extracted-size guardrails enforced on other archive paths, causing local availability impact during skill install.
