Usage Guidance
This skill is instruction-only and appears coherent, but take normal precautions before following the install steps: (1) pip installing from a git+ URL executes code on your machine—use a virtualenv (as the instructions show) and avoid installing as root; (2) review the referenced GitHub repo (miniade/[email protected]) to ensure you trust it and to inspect any install/run scripts; (3) be aware the tool fetches and scrapes remote sites (RSS/HTML/GitHub Trending) so it needs network access and should be run with appropriate rate limits and privacy considerations; (4) if you need stronger assurance, run the package in an isolated sandbox or container and inspect its behavior before giving it regular use.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: news-fetcher
Version: 0.1.8
The skill bundle describes a news aggregation CLI tool with functionality for RSS/Atom feeds, HTML scraping, and GitHub project discovery. The instructions in SKILL.md are consistent with the stated purpose, providing standard installation steps via pip from a GitHub repository (github.com/miniade/news-fetcher) and clear configuration examples. No evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or prompt injection was identified.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the SKILL.md: it instructs how to install, configure, validate, and run the news-fetcher Python CLI. Nothing in the skill asks for unrelated credentials, binaries, or system-wide config.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md limits actions to creating/validating a config, running the CLI, and piping output formats. It does not instruct the agent to read unrelated files, access secrets, or transmit data to unexpected endpoints. It does recommend scraping/public pages (e.g., GitHub Trending) which is expected for the skill's purpose.
Install Mechanism
There is no install spec (instruction-only), which reduces risk. The instructions recommend pip installing from a GitHub repository (git+https://github.com/miniade/[email protected]) — a standard but inherently privileged operation because package installation runs code on your machine; this is expected for a Python CLI but worth user caution.
Credentials
The skill declares no required env vars, credentials, or config paths. The operations described (network fetches, local config files) align with that. No suspicious environment access is requested.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill is user-invocable. There is no install-time behavior or persistent privileges requested by the skill itself (it's instruction-only).
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install news-fetcher - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/news-fetcher - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
