What This Skill Does

The news-aggregator-skill is a powerhouse utility designed for OpenClaw AI agents to perform real-time intelligence gathering. It connects to eight high-traffic platforms: Hacker News, GitHub Trending, Product Hunt, 36Kr, Tencent News, WallStreetCN, V2EX, and Weibo. Unlike basic scrapers, this tool utilizes a '--deep' mode that fetches full text content for in-depth analysis, making it an essential asset for researchers, investors, and developers who need to stay ahead of rapid market or technical shifts.

Installation

To install this skill, use the ClawHub CLI inside your OpenClaw environment: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/tonyliu9189/news-aggregator-skill-2

Use Cases

• Tech Briefings: Automatically scan Hacker News and GitHub for the latest shifts in AI, RAG, and framework updates.
• Investment Intelligence: Monitor WallStreetCN and 36Kr for rapid updates on market movements and financial policy changes.
• Product Development: Keep an eye on Product Hunt and V2EX to see what the developer community is building and validating.
• Global Trend Synthesis: Execute a 'Global Scan' to compile a massive pool of 120+ data points, which the agent then semantically filters to provide a high-level summary of the day’s most critical developments.

Example Prompts

1. "Run a global scan for today's tech news and summarize the top three trends in AI and cloud computing."
2. "news-aggregator-skill 如意如意"
3. "Fetch the latest development news from GitHub and Hacker News specifically regarding DeepSeek and LLM efficiency, then analyze the community feedback."

Tips & Limitations

• Keyword Expansion: Always leverage keyword expansion. If you are interested in 'Finance', the agent is configured to look for broader terms like 'Stock, Market, Economy, Crypto'. Don't just search for a single word.
• Deep Fetching: Use the '--deep' flag sparingly. While it provides richer data, it consumes more bandwidth and takes longer to process.
• Source Selection: If you have a specific domain, pin the source (e.g., '--source github') to minimize noise. Using '--source all' is powerful but requires strong semantic filtering by the agent to be effective.
