SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It turns your desire to stay current into a fully drafted, sourced article without you manually researching trends, reading multiple sources, or writing the final publication-ready piece.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Topic selection & trend research: Automatically selects a trending theme when no topic is provided, or follows your specified topic.
  • Source gathering with citations: Pulls facts and quotes by reading multiple relevant articles and compiling them into a credible article with sources.
  • Content memory & audit trail: Consults recent memory to avoid repetition, records what was written, and logs each run for traceability.
  • Autonomous publishing workflow: Saves the article to a predictable location and notifies you with a link to the created markdown file.

Quick Start

Ask the agent: "Write a 600-800 word daily article about AI breakthroughs, using recent sources, cite everything, save it as today’s entry, and notify me with the link."

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate daily article generation with web research and citations?

Automate daily article generation by using an agent to research trending topics, fetch 2-3 web sources, synthesize 600-800 words with citations, and save the markdown file automatically. It handles source gathering, content memory, and autonomous publishing workflows.

Can I generate a daily briefing on specific topics like AI or crypto trends?

Yes, you can generate a daily briefing on specified topics like AI, crypto, DeFi, or consciousness trends. The agent follows your specified topic or automatically selects a trending theme, pulls facts from multiple articles, and compiles a cited markdown digest.

How does content memory prevent repeated topics in recurring trend monitoring articles?

Content memory prevents repetition by reading prior topic memory before researching and writing. It records what was written, logs each run for traceability, and consults recent memory to ensure new daily articles cover fresh developments.

Do I need to manually save the generated markdown file after content writing?

No, you do not need to manually save the generated markdown file. The autonomous publishing workflow saves the article to a predictable location at articles/${today}.md, updates memory and logs, and sends a notification with a link to the created file.

What happens if web fetch fails during source gathering for a daily article?

If web fetch fails during source gathering, the agent uses WebFetch fallbacks to retrieve the required information. This ensures the 600-800 word cited article can still be completed and saved as markdown even if primary source fetching encounters issues.

Is there a word count limit for generating a publication-ready daily article?

The generated publication-ready daily article is typically 600-800 words. It includes structured sections and citations synthesized from 2-3 web sources, making it suitable for morning briefs and recurring trend digest publishing workflows.
