dingo: Skill for Claude Code

Dingo Article Fact-Checker

Verify factual claims in articles using Dingo's ArticleFactChecker agent.

Before running, verify:

1. Dingo is installed: python -c "from dingo.config import InputArgs; print('OK')"
2. OPENAI_API_KEY is set (required)
3. TAVILY_API_KEY is set (optional, enables web search verification)

If prerequisites fail, help the user fix them:

• Missing dingo: pip install -e . (from project root) or pip install dingo-python
• Missing LangChain: pip install -r requirements/agent.txt
• Missing API key: export OPENAI_API_KEY='your-key'
