Install in OpenClaw
/install x-trends-dev
Description
Fetches current top trending topics on X (Twitter) for any country using public aggregators.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do exactly what it says: scrape getdaytrends.com and display trends. Things to consider before installing: (1) running it requires network access — it will perform outbound HTTPS requests to getdaytrends.com; (2) installation will fetch dependencies from the npm registry (standard supply-chain risk) — you may want to review package-lock integrity and run in an isolated environment if you're cautious; (3) scraping third-party sites may conflict with that site's terms of service — check getdaytrends.com policy if that matters to you; (4) verify the publisher identity (owner id in registry) if you need provenance. Otherwise the skill’s footprint and behavior are proportional and self-consistent.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: x-trends-dev
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle is classified as benign. The `index.js` script correctly implements the stated purpose of fetching X (Twitter) trends by making HTTPS GET requests to `getdaytrends.com` and parsing the HTML using `cheerio`. There is no evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, persistence, or obfuscation. The `SKILL.md` file contains standard usage instructions and descriptions, with no attempts at prompt injection against the AI agent. All dependencies listed in `package.json` and `package-lock.json` are legitimate and widely used libraries for CLI tools and web scraping.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description promise (fetch X trends via public aggregators) matches the shipped code: index.js issues an HTTPS GET to getdaytrends.com, parses HTML with cheerio, and formats output. Declared dependencies support scraping and CLI behavior.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs installing and running the CLI only. Neither the documentation nor the code reads local secrets, other files, or extra environment variables; the runtime action is limited to fetching and parsing a single third-party website (getdaytrends.com).
Install Mechanism
Registry entry has no explicit install spec, but the package includes package.json and package-lock.json. Dependencies resolve to npm registry URLs (expected). This implies installation will pull packages from npm (standard supply-chain risk). No remote arbitrary download/extract URLs or personal servers are used.
Credentials
The skill requires no environment variables, credentials, or config paths. The code does not attempt to access unrelated credentials or files; network access to getdaytrends.com is the only external interaction.
Persistence & Privilege
Skill is not forced-always, does not request persistent system-wide privileges, and does not modify other skills' configs. It behaves like a normal user-invoked CLI tool.
How to Use
