Podcast Discovery
PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.
Overview
The skill is a coherent podcast lookup helper that uses public search/feed data and local parsing, with only minor install and network-use considerations.
This appears safe for normal podcast discovery. Before installing helper dependencies, review or pin the Python packages if you need a controlled environment, and use the RSS fetching tool only for podcast feeds you intend to query.

Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.
Using the skill may send podcast feed requests to external podcast hosts or services.
The local helper fetches the supplied RSS URL over the network. This is necessary for episode lookup, but users should understand the skill can contact external feed URLs.
request = Request(rss_url, headers={"User-Agent": DEFAULT_UA})
with urlopen(request, timeout=timeout_seconds) as response:Use it for podcast lookup as intended, and avoid directing it to arbitrary or internal URLs.
If you install the helper dependencies, package versions could change over time.
The bundled Python dependencies are listed without version pins, so an installation may resolve whatever package versions are current at install time.

Consider pinning or reviewing dependency versions before installation in sensitive environments.
