ADS-B Overhead
PassAudited by ClawScan on May 10, 2026.
Overview
This skill is a coherent aircraft-overhead alert watcher; it has expected network, cron, local-state, and WhatsApp-sending behavior that users should configure deliberately.
Before installing, confirm the SBS host, home coordinates, radius, cooldown, and WhatsApp target. If you enable the cron watcher, remember it will keep running every minute until disabled. Keep the config file private because it may reveal your home location and notification phone number.

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.
If configured incorrectly, it could send repeated aircraft alerts to the wrong WhatsApp recipient, although cooldowns and config checks limit the intended behavior.
The notifier invokes the Clawdbot CLI to send messages automatically to the configured target.
cmd = [claw, "message", "send", "--channel", channel, "--target", target]
Verify the notify.channel and notify.target values before enabling cron, and keep cooldowns enabled to avoid message spam.
Users have less external context for verifying who maintains the skill, though the provided scripts are readable and purpose-aligned.
The registry metadata does not provide an upstream source or homepage for independent provenance review.

Review the included Python scripts before running them on a schedule, especially because the skill is intended for cron use.
Anyone with access to the config file could learn the configured home location and notification recipient.
The configuration stores sensitive user-specific details such as home coordinates and a WhatsApp target, and the scripts persist state under ~/.clawdbot/adsb-overhead.
"home": { "lat": 51.5007, "lon": -0.1246 }, ... "notify": { "channel": "whatsapp", "target": "+15555550123" }Keep the config file private as suggested by the README’s chmod 600 step, and avoid sharing logs or configs containing home coordinates or phone numbers.
Once installed in cron, the notifier will continue running periodically and sending eligible alerts until the cron entry or config is changed.
The README suggests installing a persistent user cron job that runs the notifier every minute.

Install the cron job only if you want continuous monitoring, and document how to disable it by removing the crontab entry or setting enabled=false in the config.
