- Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: newsnow-reader Version: 1.0.5 The newsnow-reader skill is a news aggregator that fetches real-time trending topics from several major Chinese platforms (Weibo, Zhihu, Baidu, etc.) using only the Python standard library. The code in scripts/fetch_news.py implements legitimate scraping and API-calling patterns, including a basic bot-detection bypass for Weibo using randomized cookies, and correctly handles data parsing via regex and JSON. There is no evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, or prompt injection; the network activity is transparently documented and strictly limited to the specified news domains.
