Naver News Search\r

\r Search Korean news articles using the Naver Search API.\r \r

Quick Start\r

\r Use the provided script to search news:\r \r

python scripts/search_news.py "검색어" --display 10 --sort date\r
```\r
\r
Options:\r
- `--display N`: Number of results per page (1-100, default: 10)\r
- `--start N`: Start position for pagination (1-1000, default: 1)\r
- `--sort sim|date`: Sort by relevance (sim) or date (date, default: date)\r
- `--after DATETIME`: Only show news published after this time (ISO 8601 format, e.g., `2026-01-29T09:00:00+09:00`)\r
- `--min-results N`: Minimum number of results to fetch (enables auto-pagination)\r
- `--max-pages N`: Maximum number of pages to try when auto-paginating (default: 5)\r
- `--json`: Output raw JSON instead of formatted text\r
\r
## Setup\r
\r
### Environment Variables\r
\r
Required credentials from https://developers.naver.com/:\r
\r
```bash\r
NAVER_CLIENT_ID=your_client_id\r
NAVER_CLIENT_SECRET=your_client_secret\r
```\r
\r
**Configuration locations:**\r
- **Sandbox (default):** Add to `agents.defaults.sandbox.docker.env` in OpenClaw config\r
- **Host:** Add to `env.vars` in OpenClaw config\r
\r
### Getting API Credentials\r
\r
1. Visit https://developers.naver.com/\r
2. Register an application\r
3. Enable "검색" (Search) API\r
4. Copy Client ID and Client Secret\r
5. Add credentials to appropriate config section (see above)\r
\r
## Common Use Cases\r
\r
### Latest news on a topic\r
\r
```bash\r
python scripts/search_news.py "AI 인공지능" --display 20 --sort date\r
```\r
\r
### Search with relevance ranking\r
\r
```bash\r
python scripts/search_news.py "삼성전자" --sort sim\r
```\r
\r
### Filter by time (only recent news)\r
\r
```bash\r
# News published after 9 AM today\r
python scripts/search_news.py "경제" --display 50 --sort sim --after "2026-01-29T09:00:00+09:00"\r
\r
# News from the last hour (programmatic use)\r
python scripts/search_news.py "속보" --after "$(date -u -d '1 hour ago' '+%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%z')"\r
```\r
\r
### Auto-pagination for guaranteed minimum results\r
\r
```bash\r
# Fetch at least 30 results (automatically requests multiple pages if needed)\r
python scripts/search_news.py "AI" --sort sim --after "2026-01-29T09:00:00+09:00" --min-results 30 --display 50\r
\r
# Limit to 3 pages maximum\r
python scripts/search_news.py "게임" --min-results 50 --max-pages 3\r
```\r
\r
**How auto-pagination works:**\r
1. Fetches first page (e.g., 50 results)\r
2. Applies date filter (e.g., 10 results remain)\r
3. If below `--min-results`, automatically fetches next page\r
4. Stops when minimum is reached or `--max-pages` limit hit\r
\r
### Pagination for more results\r
\r
```bash\r
# First 10 results\r
python scripts/search_news.py "경제" --display 10 --start 1\r
\r
# Next 10 results\r
python scripts/search_news.py "경제" --display 10 --start 11\r
```\r
\r
## Using in Python Code\r
\r
Import and use the search function directly:\r
\r
```python\r
from scripts.search_news import search_news\r
\r
result = search_news(\r
    query="경제 뉴스",\r
    display=10,\r
    sort="date"\r
)\r
\r
for item in result["items"]:\r
    print(item["title"])\r
    print(item["description"])\r
    print(item["link"])\r
```\r
\r
## API Details\r
\r
For complete API reference including response structure, error codes, and rate limits, see:\r
\r
**[references/api.md](references/api.md)**\r
\r
## Notes\r
\r
- Search queries must be UTF-8 encoded\r
- Results include `\x3Cb>` tags around search term matches (strip them for clean text)\r
- Daily limit: 25,000 API calls per application\r
- `link` field may point to Naver News or original source depending on availability\r
Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent: it needs only python3 and your Naver app credentials to call Naver's official news search API. Before installing: (1) create a Naver developer application and use its Client ID/Secret; (2) store those credentials securely (prefer sandbox-scoped env over global host env) and limit which agents receive them; (3) be aware the script makes network requests to https://openapi.naver.com and will count toward the app's 25,000/day quota; (4) if you enable automated runs described in examples (cron/state files), ensure the agent's workspace and any state files (e.g., memory/news-state.json) do not contain other secrets; (5) if you have strict compliance requirements, review the included Python script yourself — it is short and uses only standard libraries.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: naver-news Version: 1.0.2 The skill is a legitimate client for the Naver News API. It securely retrieves API credentials from environment variables (`NAVER_CLIENT_ID`, `NAVER_CLIENT_SECRET`), interacts with the official Naver API endpoint (`https://openapi.naver.com/v1/search/news.json`), and uses standard Python libraries. There is no evidence of data exfiltration to unauthorized endpoints, malicious execution, persistence mechanisms, obfuscation, or prompt injection attempts against the agent in any of the analyzed files. All instructions and code are directly related to its stated purpose of searching Korean news.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The skill name/description, included Python script, and required env vars (NAVER_CLIENT_ID, NAVER_CLIENT_SECRET) align with calling Naver's openapi.naver.com news search endpoint. Requiring python3 and the two Naver credentials is proportionate to the stated purpose.
Instruction Scope
The SKILL.md and examples provide CLI usage and automation guidance. They suggest storing runner state in memory/news-state.json for cron automation (a convenience for automation workflows). The runtime instructions and script only read env vars and call the official Naver API; they do not instruct reading unrelated system secrets. If you enable the automation example, the agent will need file access to whatever state file you choose.
Install Mechanism
No install spec or external downloads are used; this is instruction-only with an included Python script. Risk is low — the script uses standard library modules and makes network calls to Naver's official API.
Credentials
Only NAVER_CLIENT_ID and NAVER_CLIENT_SECRET are required, which are the expected credentials for Naver's API. The code uses those credentials only to set HTTP headers to openapi.naver.com. No unrelated credentials or secrets are requested.
Persistence & Privilege
always:false and no unusual privilege escalation are requested. The SKILL.md recommends adding credentials to OpenClaw config locations (sandbox or host), which is normal; ensure you store credentials in the appropriate, least-privileged config (prefer sandbox) and do not expose them to other agents.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install naver-news
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /naver-news
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
