Trend

PassAudited by VirusTotal on May 11, 2026.

Overview

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: trend Version: 2.0.1 The 'trend' skill is a local content management toolkit that logs text entries (drafts, headlines, hashtags, etc.) to the user's local directory (~/.local/share/trend/). The implementation in scripts/script.sh uses standard UNIX utilities for file operations and lacks any network access, data exfiltration, or suspicious execution patterns.

Findings (0)

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.

What this means

A user may expect real trend, popularity, sentiment, or alert functionality, but the artifacts mainly support storing and reviewing user-entered content notes.

Why it was flagged

The frontmatter advertises trend tracking with sentiment and alerts, while the body and visible script describe content drafting, scheduling logs, search, and export rather than live trend analytics.

Skill content
description: "Track trending topics with popularity, sentiment, and alerts..." ... "Content creation and management toolkit. Draft posts, edit content..."
Recommendation

Treat this as a local content log unless the maintainer clarifies and implements the advertised trend-analysis features.

What this means

Drafts, schedules, hashtags, and other entered text may remain on disk and can later be shown by recent/search/export commands.

Why it was flagged

The script creates a persistent local data directory and records user-provided command input and activity history in log files.

Skill content
DATA_DIR="${HOME}/.local/share/trend" ... echo "$ts|$input" >> "$DATA_DIR/draft.log" ... _log "draft" "$input"
Recommendation

Avoid entering secrets or highly sensitive unpublished content unless you are comfortable with local plain-text retention; delete the files under ~/.local/share/trend when no longer needed.
