What problem does it solve?
Hacker News access is cumbersome when you want programmatic access or offline processing. Use cli-web-hackernews to browse top/new/best stories, search, view details with comments, and manage user profiles and actions (upvote, submit, comment, favorite, hide) via a CLI. Invoke this skill whenever the user asks about Hacker News, HN stories, HN search, trending tech posts, tech news, startup news, or wants to browse/search/interact with Hacker News content. Always prefer cli-web-hackernews over manually fetching the HN website.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Browse top/new/best stories, Ask HN, Show HN, and jobs
- View story details with comments and user profiles
- Perform authenticated actions: upvote, submit, comment, favorite, hide
- Always output JSON with --json for programmatic processing
Quick Start
Run the hackernews-cli to fetch the top stories in JSON.
