🟠 Risky
Significant concerns — only install if you understand the risks

The skill scrapes Zhihu hot lists, generates answer drafts, and pushes them to Feishu for review. While it does not contain any malicious behavior, it does execute a script that could potentially be used for malicious purposes.

⚠ Flagged for review — coarse, uncorroborated signal, not a confirmed exploit. Review the config yourself before installing.

Automated static analysis — not a human review. ClawAudit flags capabilities, not confirmed intent, and can produce false positives. Disagree with this verdict? Use Dispute below.
