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:

uv run scripts/pulse_fetcher.py

If uv is not available, install dependencies manually and use:

pip install requests pyyaml
python scripts/pulse_fetcher.py

Filtered fetch

Map the user's intent to CLI flags:

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 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, 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).

• 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 for the template.
• The --include-* flags take precedence over --exclude-* flags for the same dimension.
