Market Watch

Market monitoring and alert system for prices and news. Use when the user asks to watch a price, monitor market conditions, get notified when an asset hits a...

This package appears to implement the advertised market and news monitoring, but there are a few mismatches and actions you should consider before installing: - Dependency and binary checks: The skill manifest lists no required binaries, but the scripts call 'python3' and the 'openclaw' CLI, and (on macOS) may use 'launchctl'. Ensure those binaries exist and you trust their behavior. - Sensitive data access: Alerts reference a transcript_file under ~/.openclaw/agents/{agent}/private and the on-trigger flow instructs the agent to read that file. Confirm you are comfortable the skill (and any alerted agent) can access session transcripts and that those files don't contain secrets you don't want read by the skill. - Network access: The monitors will connect to many public endpoints (Binance/OKX/Bitget/Hyperliquid/CoinGecko, RSS feeds, and specific pytdx TCP servers). If you require network controls, consider running the skill in an environment with restricted outbound access or reviewing the endpoints in references/exchange-api.md. - Persistence: The install-watchdog.sh can install a launchd job that will resurrect the daemon every 5 minutes. Only run that if you explicitly want a persistent background monitor. You can run the daemons manually instead. - Provenance & review: The repository owner is unknown in the registry metadata. If you plan to use this skill, review the scripts (especially deliver_message, subprocess usage, and any code that writes files or runs external commands), verify the upstream GitHub repo, and consider running the monitors in a confined environment (container or dedicated VM) until you are comfortable. If you want, I can list the exact files/lines where the 'openclaw' CLI and transcript file paths are used, or produce a short checklist of commands to validate runtime environment and permissions before running the skill.

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: market-watch Version: 1.2.1 The 'market-watch' skill is a comprehensive market monitoring tool for crypto and A-shares. It uses background daemons (price-monitor.py, news-monitor.py) to poll various financial APIs and RSS feeds, notifying the agent via the OpenClaw CLI when conditions are met. The code demonstrates good security practices, such as input validation in shell scripts (daemon.sh) to prevent injection and atomic file writes for data integrity. While it includes a persistence mechanism via macOS launchd (install-watchdog.sh), this behavior is explicitly documented and necessary for the skill's monitoring functionality.
