Hot Topic Finder
Security checks across static analysis, malware telemetry, and agentic risk
Overview
This appears to be a benign local topic-history tool, but its “multi-platform hot list” claims are not implemented and it stores topic history locally.
Safe to use as a local topic tracker, but do not rely on it for live Weibo/Zhihu/Douyin trend monitoring based on these artifacts. Be aware that marked topics are stored locally and may need manual deletion if they are sensitive.
Static analysis
No static analysis findings were reported for this release.
VirusTotal
VirusTotal findings are pending for this skill version.
Risk analysis
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.
The tool may present canned topics as if they are current trends, which could mislead content planning.
The implementation uses a static built-in topic list, while the skill description claims multi-platform hot-list monitoring; users should not assume the results are live platform data.
TOPICS = [
("房价下跌趋势", 560000, "财经"),
("AI替代人类工作", 480000, "科技"),Treat recommendations as static inspiration unless the skill is updated with clearly evidenced live data sources.
Topics you mark as used can remain on disk and influence future recommendations.
The skill stores topic-use history in a persistent local SQLite database and later uses that history for deduplication and recommendations.
DB_PATH = os.path.expanduser("~/.openclaw/data/topic_history.db")Avoid recording confidential topics, and delete or inspect ~/.openclaw/data/topic_history.db if you want to clear the history.
