# Security Research - March 5, 2026 **Status:** ⚠️ FAILED - Configuration Required ## Issue
The 4 AM security research cron job cannot execute — `web_search` tool requires API key configuration. **Missing:** `PERPLEXITY_API_KEY` or `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` in Gateway environment ## Required Setup To enable automated security research, configure one of: 1. **Perplexity API** (recommended for security research) ```bash export PERPLEXITY_API_KEY="your-key-here" ``` 2. **OpenRouter** (alternative, provides Perplexity access) ```bash export OPENROUTER_API_KEY="your-key-here" ``` 3. **Gateway config** (persistent) ```json { "tools": { "web": { "search": { "perplexity": { "apiKey": "your-key-here" } } } } } ``` ## Alternative Approaches Until API access is configured: - **Manual research:** Use browser tool to visit security news sites
- **RSS feeds:** Monitor ThehackerNews, BleepingComputer, SecurityWeek
- **Twitter/X:** Follow @threatpost, @hackernews, @CISAgov
- **Disable cron:** Remove this job until API is available ## Intended Research Targets This job was designed to search for: 1. **Data Breaches** - Major incidents, affected companies, record counts
2. **Critical CVEs** - CVSS 9.0+, actively exploited, PoC availability
3. **Ransomware Attacks** - New strains, notable victims, TTPs
4. **Security Tools** - New releases, major updates, KENSAI competitors
5. **Emerging Threats** - APT campaigns, 0-days, supply chain attacks ## Next Steps 1. Configure API access (see above)
2. Test with: `openclaw run "search for latest CVE 2026"`
3. Re-run this cron job manually: `cron run --jobId 5e0fb6fb-bc0c-4729-a655-497c5ccc56e6`
4. Verify 6:30 AM briefing job dependency --- *Generated: 2026-03-05 04:00 CET*
