Usage Guidance
Review this skill before installing. Prefer a project-local, pinned dependency install instead of global npm installation, use it only for explicit WeChat article searches, avoid the real-URL resolution option unless needed, and be aware that it relies on scraping-style requests that may violate site rules or expose your environment to attacker-influenced outbound requests.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: wechat-article-search
Version: 0.1.0
The skill bundle is classified as suspicious due to a file write vulnerability in `scripts/search_wechat.js`. The script allows writing search results to an arbitrary file path specified by the user via the `-o` or `--output` command-line argument. This lack of input sanitization for the output path could lead to path traversal, allowing an attacker to write data to unintended locations on the file system. While the content written is the script's own output (JSON search results), the ability to control the write location is a significant vulnerability. The `SKILL.md` instructions are benign and the core web scraping functionality is aligned with the stated purpose, contacting legitimate Sogou domains.
Capability Assessment
Credentials
The script performs external HTTPS requests, rotates browser User-Agent strings, obtains cookies from a separate Sogou endpoint, and optionally performs per-result redirect and HTML/JavaScript link resolution; these are related to the search goal but are more evasive and under-scoped than a transparent search client.
Install Mechanism
SKILL.md recommends `npm install -g cheerio` without a pinned version or lockfile, which expands installation scope and makes dependency provenance non-reproducible.
Instruction Scope
The trigger text includes broader reference-material language that could invoke the skill for generic article research, and the documentation does not fully explain the cookie acquisition and anti-automation techniques used by the script.
Persistence & Privilege
No background service, startup persistence, privilege escalation, local credential access, or hidden local indexing was found; file writing is limited to a user-supplied output option, though it can overwrite the chosen path.
Purpose & Capability
The advertised purpose is searching WeChat public-account articles, and the script largely matches that by querying Sogou Weixin search, parsing titles, summaries, dates, sources, and links.
