Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a news aggregation skill that contacts public RSS/API feeds when run, with no evidence of credential use, persistence, destructive actions, or hidden data access.

Install only if you are comfortable with the skill contacting public news/RSS/API sources such as 36kr, V2EX, Hacker News, GitHub Trending, Juejin, and Wallstreetcn when its scripts run. The publisher should correct the conflicting local-only/no-external-API claims in README.md and AUDIT.md.

Finding
The skill documentation instructs users to run scripts that fetch remote RSS/API content, which implies network access, yet no permissions are declared. This creates a transparency and governance gap: users and hosting platforms cannot accurately assess or constrain the skill's capabilities, increasing the risk of unexpected outbound connections or future capability creep.
