I haven’t worked in a while and despite this I’m still getting paid (hexbear.net)

It’s agency work, basically sent to wherever (if there’s a spot available) I have nothing from my boss for quite a while, but despite so, I am still getting paid every Friday (it just happened now) I believe it’s an error but I’m not complaining, I absolutely love it. But I fear that my boss would ask if I got paid for the weeks where I did not work. Am I overthinking this or is it best to just keep my mouth shut and deny any knowledge?

First thing, is your boss "cool"? If so, maybe find a way to contact them outside of corporate monitored channels and let them know. It might turn out they're doing you a solid.

If you've got any paperwork about your employment, you might try finding and rereading it to make sure you're not on something that could be argued is a kind of "retainer".

If you boss isn't cool, you might need to contact HR. If you aren't doing peicemeal work, are getting paid a salary, and you haven't been terminated maybe there's a case that nobody is going to try to clawback the pay.
