News Summary

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This instruction-only news skill fetches public RSS headlines and optionally turns the resulting summary into audio using OpenAI TTS, with no evidence of hidden or destructive behavior.

This skill is reasonable to install for news briefings. Be aware that fetching current news contacts the listed public news sources, and using the voice feature sends the generated summary text to OpenAI and may incur API usage on your key. Avoid putting private notes into a voice summary unless you are comfortable transmitting them to OpenAI.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
89% confidence
Finding
The voice-summary workflow sends generated summary text to an external TTS API without instructing the agent to warn the user or obtain consent. If the summary includes sensitive user-provided context, preferences, or proprietary information, this creates an unintended data disclosure to a third-party service.
