Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

SkillSpector: 3 findings, up to medium
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00080 | $0.02535 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00040 | $0.01267 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00016 | $0.00507 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00253 |
Grade A, and why
daily-journal-api 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 12d 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.
Makes network callslowCapability
Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.
> **This skill is the `curl` route. There is also an MCP server.** How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 227 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Daily Journal Public API
Free, unauthenticated JSON API. Base URL: https://dailyjournal.news/api/public.
Global news coverage in Portuguese (pt-BR). Responses carry the original outlets (BBC, Financial Times, NYT, WSJ, Bloomberg, Al Jazeera, Folha, G1, UOL, CNN Brasil, etc.) with canonical external URLs for attribution.
This skill is the
curlroute. There is also an MCP server.https://dailyjournal.news/mcpexposes the same data as native tools (search_news,get_news,list_topics,get_topic) with no Bash needed, and works in Claude web and desktop, ChatGPT and Grok as well as Claude Code:claude mcp add --transport http daily-journal https://dailyjournal.news/mcp. This skill remains the better fit when the explicitcurlbelongs in the transcript, when a shell pipeline wraps the API, or where adding a connector is not an option. Running both is redundant, not harmful.
When to use this skill
- User asks about current events — politics, economy, business, finance, technology, science, world affairs, sports
- User asks "what's happening with X?" for any topic, person, or event
- User wants Portuguese-language coverage with cited sources
- User mentions Daily Journal directly
Skip when the user explicitly wants a different source or a non-news task.

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.

daily-journal-api is a skill published in the GitHub repository daily-journal-tech/daily-journal-agents (10 stars, last pushed 18d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 80 tokens to every session and 2,535 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
