[REPLACE: SKILL_NAME]

[REPLACE: SKILL_NAME] is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from aaronjmars/aeon-agent. It costs 0 tokens per session (790 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of [REPLACE: SKILL_NAME], MIT.

A partially filled skill template for making digests from RSS feeds and web search, where RSS is a standard way for sites to publish new entries.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it as a starting point for a news or research digest that reads configured feeds, finds additional recent web links, and ranks the results.
Why use it?
It outlines a repeatable way to gather recent items, skip broken feeds, rank results, and remove duplicates, but its topic, feeds, and limits are still placeholders.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

[REPLACE: SKILL_NAME] scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

`WebFetch` and `WebSearch` are built-in Claude tools. There is no network sandbox — `curl` works too; use `WebFetch` as the fallback for a flaky public GET. For this research skill the reads are unauthenticated, so `WebS

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 70 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

${var} — Optional. Pass a different topic to override the default. If empty, digests [REPLACE: TOPIC].

Today is ${today}. Build a digest of the [REPLACE: MAX_ITEMS] most interesting new posts on [REPLACE: TOPIC].

Steps

  1. Read sources — pull the last 24h of entries from each feed:

    [REPLACE: FEED_URLS]
    

    (Comma- or newline-separated list of RSS/Atom URLs.)

    Use WebFetch to retrieve each feed and parse the entries. If a feed 404s or returns malformed XML, log a single warning line and skip that feed for this run.

  2. Augment with web search — run a WebSearch for [REPLACE: TOPIC] latest and pick up to 5 fresh links published in the last 24h that aren't already in the feed results.

  3. Score and rank — for each candidate, score on:

    • Recency — within the last 24h gets full marks.
    • Source weight — feeds in the configured list outrank generic search results.
    • Specificity — items mentioning concrete numbers, code, or named systems beat opinion pieces.

    Drop anything obviously off-topic (the ${var} or [REPLACE: TOPIC] keyword should appear somewhere in title or summary).

  4. Pick the top [REPLACE: MAX_ITEMS] — write output/articles/[REPLACE: SKILL_NAME]-${today}.md with one entry each:

    ### [Title](url)
    *[Source · published date]*
    2-3 sentences distilling the takeaway. No filler.
    
  5. Notify via ./notify with:

    *[REPLACE: TOPIC] digest — ${today}*
    
    [N] picks. Top item: [shortened title].
    
    Full digest: https://github.com/${GITHUB_REPOSITORY}/blob/main/output/articles/[REPLACE: SKILL_NAME]-${today}.md
    
  6. Log — append to memory/logs/${today}.md:

    ## [REPLACE: SKILL_NAME]
    - **Sources scanned**: N feeds + 1 web search
    - **Items picked**: N (of M candidates)
    - **Top source**: domain
    - **Status**: DIGEST_OK | DIGEST_QUIET (no items) | DIGEST_DEGRADED (some feeds failed)
    

Network note

WebFetch and WebSearch are built-in Claude tools. There is no network sandbox — curl works too; use WebFetch as the fallback for a flaky public GET. For this research skill the reads are unauthenticated, so WebSearch + WebFetch are the simplest path.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
