Usage Guidance
This skill is coherent and low-risk: it only fetches public market pages (Yahoo, Sina, and expects caller-side Trading Economics scraping) and returns raw text/JSON for the caller to parse. Before installing, consider: 1) the agent (or your environment) will run a shell script that issues network requests — ensure you trust outbound connections to the documented endpoints; 2) the script assumes curl is available and will use iconv if present for GB2312→UTF-8 decoding; 3) the caller must implement parsing and should validate and sanitize remote responses (don't blindly trust returned text/JSON); 4) be aware of rate limits and Terms of Service for the scraped sites; and 5) run or review the script in a sandbox if you want to verify behavior. No secrets are required by this skill.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: market-global-snapshot
Version: 0.1.5
The skill is a legitimate tool for fetching and reporting global market data from Yahoo Finance, Sina Finance, and Trading Economics. The shell script `scripts/fetch_market.sh` uses `curl` to retrieve raw data and includes basic safeguards like variable quoting to prevent command injection. The instructions in `SKILL.md` are consistent with the stated purpose of generating market reports and do not contain any malicious directives or attempts at data exfiltration.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the behavior: the included helper script and SKILL.md both focus on fetching raw market payloads from Yahoo Finance and Sina Finance for China tickers; Trading Economics is mentioned as a caller-side fallback. No unrelated services, binaries, or credentials are requested.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md confines the helper to raw fetch responsibilities and instructs the caller to parse/compute/fallback to Trading Economics. It does not ask the agent to read unrelated files or environment variables. The only external interactions are HTTP GETs to the documented finance endpoints.
Install Mechanism
No install spec; the skill is instruction-only with a small shell helper that will be executed if invoked. No third-party downloads, archives, or unusual install locations are present.
Credentials
The skill does not request environment variables, credentials, or config paths. The helper uses curl and optionally iconv (falls back to cat), which is proportional to URL fetching and decoding GB2312 responses.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not modify other skills or system configuration. Autonomous invocation is allowed (platform default) but does not combine with broad privileges here.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install market-global-snapshot - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/market-global-snapshot - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
