Description

--- name: ai-news-skill description: > Fetch the latest AI/ML news, trending open-source projects, social media discussions, and KOL (Key Opinion Leader) perspectives from 75+ curated sources. Use when the user asks about recent AI news, AI trends, what's happening in machine learning, open-source AI projects, AI Twitter/Reddit discussions, or wants a daily AI briefing. license: MIT compatibility: Requires Python 3.9+ and internet access. Dependencies (requests, pyyaml) are declared inline via PEP 723; use `uv run` for zero-setup execution. metadata: author: frankzch version: "1.1" --- # AI Intelligence Skill ## When to use this skill Use when the user wants to: - Get the latest AI/ML news and announcements - Browse trending open-source AI projects from GitHub - Read AI discussion highlights from Reddit, X (Twitter), HackerNews - See what AI KOLs (Key Opinion Leaders) are saying - Get a comprehensive daily AI briefing ## Workflow ### Default: Fetch latest AI briefing Run the fetcher script from the skill directory: ```bash uv run scripts/pulse_fetcher.py ``` If `uv` is not available, install dependencies manually and use: ```bash pip install requests pyyaml python scripts/pulse_fetcher.py ``` ### Filtered fetch Map the user's intent to CLI flags: | User says | Flags | |-----------|-------| | "Only Reddit discussions" | `--include-categories discussion --include-sources reddit` | | "Open source, no Github" | `--include-categories opensource --exclude-sources github` | | "50 items, past 48 hours" | `--limit 50 --hours 48` | | "Show full summaries with links" | `--show-long-summary true --show-link true` | | "AI news in Chinese" | `--include-categories news --language zh` | ### Available options Run `uv run scripts/pulse_fetcher.py --help` for the full list. Key flags: - `--include-categories "cat1,cat2"` — Only fetch these categories: `news`, `opensource`, `discussion`, `kol` - `--exclude-categories "cat1,cat2"` — Skip these categories - `--include-sources "src1,src2"` — Only from these sources - `--exclude-sources "src1,src2"` — Skip these sources - `--hours INT` — Time window in hours (default: 24) - `--limit INT` — Max items to request. The server clamps to the tier cap (guest=3 / free=6 / member=100); anything larger is silently truncated. - `--language en|zh` — Output language (default: auto-detect from system locale) - `--show-short-summary true|false` — Show short summary (default: true) - `--show-long-summary true|false` — Show long summary (default: false) - `--show-link true|false` — Show article URLs (default: false) - `--output-file FILE` — Export full JSON to file (default: pulse_output.json). Pass empty string to disable. ## Output format Each item is printed as: ``` 1. [NEWS] Title of the article (from TechCrunch) Short Summary: One-line summary text ---------------------------------------- ``` When `--output-file` is used, the full JSON response is saved to disk. See [references/API.md](references/API.md) for the response schema. ## Gotchas - **HTTP 429** means the user hit an IP rate limit (anti-spam interval or daily cap). Tell them to wait a few minutes and try again. - **Tier caps on result count.** The response includes a `tier` field and items are capped per request based on it: - `guest` (no / invalid `api_key`): max **3** items - `free` (logged in, non-member): max **6** items - `member`: max **100** items If the user asks for more items than the tier cap, the server silently clamps to the cap. To raise the cap, tell the user to register at [InBrief.info](https://inbrief.info), open **Settings → PulseAI Agent Skill**, copy the API Key, and paste it into the `api_key` field of `config.yaml` (see [assets/config.default.yaml](assets/config.default.yaml)). - Use `--output-file` when links are included — terminal line-wrapping can corrupt long URLs. - If `config.yaml` exists in the skill root, it overrides default settings. See [assets/config.default.yaml](assets/config.default.yaml) for the template. - The `--include-*` flags take precedence over `--exclude-*` flags for the same dimension.
