Security audit

GNews CLI

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a straightforward GNews CLI helper skill with disclosed API-key use, network access, build steps, and optional global installation.

Before installing, review and trust the linked GitHub repository because the skill tells you to build and run code from it. Keep GNEWS_API_KEY private, avoid sharing debug output, and only use the optional sudo install if you want the binary available system-wide.
