AI News Simple
Security checks across static analysis, malware telemetry, and agentic risk
Overview
This skill appears benign: it fetches public AI news pages with curl for a user-requested briefing and does not request credentials, persistence, or local private data access.
This skill is reasonable to install if you want AI news briefings and are comfortable with it contacting the listed public websites. Treat generated summaries as informational, verify important items, and do not broaden the bash commands to arbitrary sites or local files without review.
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.
Using the skill may contact the listed news websites and include their returned page content in the generated briefing.
The skill explicitly relies on shell commands and curl to retrieve external webpages. This is purpose-aligned for news collection and uses fixed sources, but users should recognize it will make network requests when used.
This skill uses bash commands to:\n1. **Access news sources** - Use curl to fetch content
Use it when you are comfortable with outbound requests to the listed public sources, and review any command changes before running them.
A webpage could contain misleading, irrelevant, or instruction-like text that may affect the generated summary if not handled carefully.
The skill brings raw text from public webpages into the agent's context for summarization. That is expected for a news skill, but external webpage text is untrusted and should be treated as data rather than instructions.
content=$(curl -s "$source" | grep -E "(OpenAI|GPT|Anthropic|Google AI|Claude|ChatGPT|人工智能|机器学习|深度学习|AI模型|自动驾驶|机器人)" | head -3)
Treat fetched webpage content as untrusted source material and verify important news items against the original sources.
