What it does
News is an agent skill from ymx10086/ResearchClaw. Fetch and summarize the latest news from trusted sources across politics, finance, society, world, tech, sports, and entertainment. Use when the user asks for latest news, headlines, or news in a specific category.
Its SKILL.md is about 610 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
The repository describes itself as: ResearchClaw is a personal AI assistant built for research: fast to set up, easy to run locally or in the cloud, and ready to integrate with the chat apps you already use. With…
When your agent uses it
- The user asks for latest news
- News in a specific category
Example prompts
- “/news”

What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1baaa92. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are json).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
chinanews.com
Also links to:
cpc.people.com.cnce.cncgtn.comstdaily.comsports.cctv.coment.sina.com.cn
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
News loads about 611 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 55 tokens; SKILL.md has 262 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 262 words (~611 tokens).
“When the user asks for "latest news", "what's in the news today", or "news in category X", use the browser_use tool with the categories and URLs below: open the page, take a snapshot, then extract headlines and key points from…”
