Finance Web Monitor
PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.
Overview
The skill is a coherent finance-site monitoring helper; its notable behaviors are disclosed recurring scheduling and small local snapshots for change tracking.
Before installing, confirm the URL list and briefing schedule, use only public no-login finance sources, and know how to remove the cron schedule and workspace state if you no longer want monitoring.
Findings (2)
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.
A scheduled job could keep running and producing briefings until the user removes or changes it.
Cron creates recurring activity beyond a one-off request. This is disclosed and aligned with the skill’s monitoring purpose, but it is still persistence the user should notice.
Use `cron` to schedule daily briefings; include “reminder/briefing” wording in payload.
Only schedule after confirming the URL list and cadence, and remove the cron job when monitoring is no longer wanted.
Stored snapshots may affect later change reports and may contain text from the monitored pages.
The skill stores prior fetched content for reuse in later runs. The path and purpose are disclosed and limited, but persistent context can influence future summaries.
Save a small rolling snapshot in workspace (e.g., `/home/claw/.openclaw/workspace/finance-monitor/state.json`). On next run, compare new text with previous snapshot and report changes only.
Use only public/no-login sources, keep the snapshot scoped to approved URLs, and clear the state file if monitoring requirements change.
