MaskClaw: Edge-Side Personalized Privacy Arbitration for GUI Agents with Behavior-Driven Skill Evolution

arXiv CS.CL

ArXi:2605.28646v1 Announce Type: cross GUI agents rely on screenshots to infer intent and operate across applications, but these screenshots often contain private messages, medical records, payment credentials, and workplace-specific workflows. Privacy decisions in this setting depend on task, recipient, application state, and user role, yet static PII detectors miss these boundaries and cloud-side VLM reasoning can upload the raw screen before deciding what should be protected. We present MaskClaw, an edge-side privacy arbitrator for GUI agents.
