Description
GitHub 仓库深度搜索与分析。支持按关键词、语言、stars、更新时间筛选，获取细分领域最新开源项目。专为技术调研设计。
Usage Guidance
Review or patch the scripts before installing. Prefer replacing curl+execSync with fetch or https, or at minimum use argument-array spawning with strict allowlists for repo names, sort, and order. Avoid passing untrusted repository names, and only set GITHUB_TOKEN if needed with a fine-grained read-only token.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: github-search
Version: 1.0.0
The skill is classified as suspicious due to its reliance on `child_process.execSync` in `scripts/github-search.mjs` and `scripts/repo-detail.mjs` to execute `curl` commands for GitHub API interactions. While the URL and header arguments appear to be correctly quoted to prevent trivial shell injection from user input, using `execSync` for external network calls is an inherently riskier practice than employing dedicated HTTP client libraries, potentially introducing vulnerabilities if quoting or input sanitization were to fail under specific conditions. No evidence of intentional malicious behavior, such as data exfiltration to unauthorized endpoints or backdoor installation, was found; the `GITHUB_TOKEN` usage is for legitimate API authentication.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The stated purpose is GitHub repository search and analysis, and the scripts target GitHub API endpoints, but the implementation gives the skill broader local command execution capability than the purpose requires.
Instruction Scope
User-controlled values such as repository names and search options are placed into shell-built curl commands; repo-detail only checks for an owner/repo shape before shell execution.
Install Mechanism
No hidden installer or persistence was found, but the documentation references a batch-detail helper that is not present and does not clearly scope runtime requirements beyond command examples.
Credentials
Using child_process.execSync with interpolated curl command strings is disproportionate for simple GitHub API reads and creates command-injection risk.
Persistence & Privilege
No background process, persistence, file mutation, or unrelated privilege use was found; optional GITHUB_TOKEN use is purpose-aligned but needs careful least-privilege handling.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
