Tech News Daily
Get a curated daily briefing of the most important tech news, tailored to your interests.
When to Use

- "Show me today's top tech news"
- "Any big AI news this week?"
- "What's trending on GitHub?"
- "Give me a morning tech briefing"
- "Find news about [specific topic/company]"
❌ DON'T use this skill when:

How It Works
The skill fetches from multiple free/public RSS feeds and APIs, then summarizes the results.
News Sources (Free Tier)
| Source | Type | Access |
|---|---|---|
| Hacker News | Text API | https://hacker-news.firebaseio.com/v0/ |
| GitHub Trending | Web scrape | https://github.com/trending |
| TechCrunch RSS | RSS Feed | https://techcrunch.com/feed/ |
| The Verge RSS | RSS Feed | https://www.theverge.com/rss/index.xml |
Commands / Natural Language Triggers
| What you say | What happens |
|---|---|
| "daily briefing" | Top 5 stories from Hacker News + TechCrunch |
| "trending on GitHub" | Top 10 GitHub repos today (by language filter) |
| "AI news this week" | Filter articles matching AI/ML keywords |
| "tech news about [topic]" | Search + summarize across sources |
| "save that article" | Bookmark to scripts/bookmarks.json |
Workflow
1. Fetch News
When the user asks for news, the agent:
- Checks which sources to use (default: HN + GitHub Trending)
- Fetches the latest items using
curl - Deduplicates and ranks by relevance/recent
- Summarizes each item in 2-3 sentences
2. Filter by Interest
The agent can filter by:
- Topic: "AI", "cybersecurity", "open source", "startups", etc.
- Source: "HN only", "GitHub trending Python"
- Time: "today", "this week", "past 24h"
3. Bookmark for Later
When the user says "save that", the agent appends to scripts/bookmarks.json with:
- Title, URL, source, date saved
- Optional user note/tag
4. Generate Digest
The agent can compile a markdown summary suitable for:
- Telegram/Signal message
- Email digest
- Local markdown file

User: "Show me Python trending repos" Agent: Fetches https://github.com/trending/python?since=daily, lists top 5
Notes
- All sources are free/public — no API keys needed
- For RSS-based sources, the agent uses
curl+ basic XML parsing - Respect rate limits: cache results for at least 10 minutes between fetches
- 确保已安装 OpenClaw（本地或 Docker 部署）
- 在对话框中输入安装命令：
/install eric-tech-brief - 安装完成后，直接呼叫该 Skill 的名称或使用
/eric-tech-brief触发 - 根据 Skill 的参数说明提供必要输入，即可获得结构化输出
