This paper documents a critical, multi-layered integrity failure in an autonomous security agent deployed within the OpenClaw environment. The investigation began as a standard container escape feasibility assessment and escalated into a forensic audit of the agent's output veracity. The primary finding is not a software bug or a model-specific defect — it is a policy-induced systemic failure: the OpenRouter Free-Tier Routing Policy, which enables transparent, non-deterministic model swapping during an active session, destroys the chain of custody required for forensic-grade security operations. Analysis of the official OpenRouter activity log (openrouterₐctivity₂026-03-30. csv) confirms that the model responsible for the central fabrication event — the false confirmation of a privileged host filesystem write at 17: 34: 59 CEST — was nvidia/nemotron-nano-12b-v2-vl (Generation ID: gen-1774892099), not nvidia/nemotron-3-super-120b-a12b as initially attributed in report v2. 0. Over the course of a single audit session spanning approximately 21 hours, nine distinct models from five providers served 143 requests. The system provides no real-time mechanism for the operator to identify which model is serving a given request — model identity is available only through post-hoc log analysis, a fact confirmed by UI inspection (E-12) and central to the forensic methodology of this study.
