What This Skill Does

The toutiao-hot-news-cn skill acts as an intelligent bridge to the most viral and trending topics on Toutiao, one of China's most popular news aggregation platforms. It programmatically scrapes the platform's public hot-board, providing users with a comprehensive snapshot of current events across politics, finance, technology, and entertainment. By capturing real-time data including headlines, popularity indices, and direct navigation links, the agent allows users to stay informed about the Chinese digital landscape without manually browsing the site.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your OpenClaw environment, execute the following command in your terminal:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/guohongbin-git/toutiao-hot-news-cn

Ensure that your environment meets the Node.js requirements specified in the source repository to handle the scraping scripts effectively.

Use Cases

  1. Market Research: Analysts can track emerging narratives and societal trends in the Chinese market to adjust content strategies or investment signals.
  2. News Monitoring: Media professionals use this to automate daily news briefings, receiving a curated list of top-tier headlines directly from the Toutiao hot-board.
  3. Language Learning: Students of the Chinese language can utilize these hot topics to practice reading current, context-heavy vocabulary as it appears in real-world media.

Example Prompts

  1. "头条,获取今天的前20条热搜榜单,并分析一下科技类新闻占了多少比例。"
  2. "Get the current China news trending topics and list the top 5 with their popularity scores in a table format."
  3. "请查一下头条热榜,告诉我最近关于人工智能的热门话题有哪些链接,并简要概述。"

Tips & Limitations

  • Rate Limiting: The skill utilizes random User-Agent rotation to mitigate risk; however, excessive automated calls may trigger Toutiao's anti-scraping measures. Use it judiciously.
  • Data Structure: Because the skill relies on scraping public web interfaces, any structural change to the Toutiao website may cause parsing errors. The script includes error handling, but users should verify data accuracy if critical decisions depend on it.
  • Links: The skill automatically cleans URLs to remove redundant query parameters, making the output highly suitable for sharing or archiving.
