Description
阅读Twitter/X推文内容。当用户分享Twitter/X链接,或说"读一下这条推文"、"read tweet"、"看看这条X"时使用。
Usage Guidance
This skill will make network requests to third‑party proxy endpoints (api.fxtwitter.com / api.vxtwitter.com) and may fetch externally linked pages; those services will see the tweet URL and any content you ask the skill to retrieve. Before installing, consider: 1) Do you trust those proxy services to not log or persist requests? 2) Do you want the agent to fetch arbitrary external links (could pull sensitive content)? 3) Ensure curl/Bash are available in the runtime environment (manifest lists none but SKILL.md uses curl). If you need stronger privacy or provenance, prefer a skill that uses the official Twitter/X API with user‑provided credentials, or restrict the agent's network access and/or disable autonomous invocation. Also note the skill's source/homepage is unknown — verify the publisher or ask for source code before trusting it.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: read-tweet Version: 1.0.0 The skill 'read-tweet' is designed to fetch and format Twitter/X content using public proxy APIs (fxtwitter.com and vxtwitter.com) to bypass JavaScript rendering issues. While it requests 'Bash' permissions to execute 'curl' commands, the logic in SKILL.md is transparent, limited to the stated purpose, and lacks any indicators of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or command injection.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The skill's name and description (read a Twitter/X tweet) align with its runtime instructions to fetch tweet JSON from an API proxy (fxtwitter/vxtwitter). Minor inconsistency: the manifest declares no required binaries or credentials, but SKILL.md expects Bash/curl to be available at runtime.
Instruction Scope
Instructions tell the agent to replace the tweet domain with api.fxtwitter.com (or api.vxtwitter.com) and curl that URL, and to optionally follow and curl any external links found in the tweet or use WebSearch to find tweet content. That is coherent for reading tweets, but it means tweet URLs, content, and any linked external pages will be sent to third‑party proxy services and to whatever search provider is used. This has privacy and data‑exfiltration implications not called out in the skill.
Install Mechanism
Instruction-only skill with no install spec or code files — lowest install risk. Nothing is written to disk by the skill itself.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables or credentials, which is proportional. Note: it bypasses official Twitter APIs by relying on public proxy endpoints, so no Twitter credentials are needed — but that design choice has privacy/trust tradeoffs.
Persistence & Privilege
always:false and no install/persistence mechanisms present. The skill does not request elevated or permanent privileges in the agent configuration.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install read-tweet
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /read-tweet
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
