Aviation Weather

PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.

Overview

This skill coherently fetches aviation weather from the disclosed aviationweather.gov API and does not show credential use, persistence, local file access, or destructive behavior.

This appears safe for its stated purpose. Before installing, note that it sends weather query parameters to aviationweather.gov and needs python3 to run; for real flight decisions, verify results through official aviation briefing channels.

Findings (2)

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.

What this means

Airport codes or latitude/longitude search parameters may be sent to aviationweather.gov when the skill is used.

Why it was flagged

The script makes outbound API calls to the disclosed aviationweather.gov endpoint using user-selected stations, coordinates, hours, and radius values.

Recommendation

Use it for weather queries you are comfortable sending to aviationweather.gov, and review parameters before asking for location-based PIREPs.

What this means

The skill may not run in an environment without python3, despite the metadata not declaring that dependency.

Why it was flagged

The runtime examples depend on python3 even though the registry requirements list no required binaries; this is a small metadata completeness issue rather than hidden behavior.

Recommendation

Confirm python3 is available before use; no external packages or remote installers are shown in the artifacts.
