Overview
Use this skill to produce a grounded brief on a topic using only recent public discussion and engagement signals. Prioritize sources from the last 30 days, rank findings by real engagement, and merge duplicate stories before synthesizing.
Workflow
- Clarify the topic, audience, and output format when they are not obvious.
- Search relevant public platforms for the last 30 days:
- Reddit, Hacker News, GitHub, X, YouTube, and Polymarket when relevant.
- Topic-specific communities, handles, hashtags, repos, and keywords.
- Capture engagement context such as upvotes, comments, stars, views, reposts, or prediction odds.
- De-duplicate repeated stories across platforms and keep the strongest source links.
- Rank findings by engagement and relevance, not by editorial placement.
- Produce a concise brief with:
- Executive summary.
- Top themes and ranked evidence.
- Notable disagreements or weak signals.
- Source links and dates.
- Practical implications for the user's decision.
- If the user asks for
--emit=html, produce a formatted HTML brief. - If the user asks for ELI5 after a run, rewrite the same findings in plain language without changing the evidence.
