Practical News Monitor
Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk
Overview
This skill is a disclosed news-monitoring script that fetches configured public sources and saves local reports, with no evidence of hidden credential access, destructive behavior, or exfiltration.
Before installing, be comfortable with a Python script that can contact configured news sites and save fetched titles, links, timestamps, and keyword tags locally. Review any custom sources or headers you add, and treat saved news content as untrusted external data.
