Restore 7 missing v1 features + add query parsing display + v1-vs-v2 test plan
Feature audit found 11 things v2 dropped from v1. Restored the 7 that affect output quality: quality checklist for prompts, anti-pattern examples, self-check instruction, "don't re-search" context memory, prompt format anti-pattern, multi-prompt guidance, and emoji footer with engagement counts. Also adds visible query parsing display (🔍 **{TOPIC}** · {QUERY_TYPE}) and the full v1-vs-v2 comparison test plan with all 17 test queries from README.

# feat: Add Visible Query Parsing Display
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
The last30days skill parses user intent (TOPIC, QUERY_TYPE, TARGET_TOOL) internally but never shows the user what it understood. The agent jumps straight from the user's `/last30days kanye west` into running tools with a generic "I'll start the research script and web searches in parallel."
|
||||
|
||||
Users expect to see a reformulation of their query — confirming what the agent understood before it starts searching. This builds trust and lets users course-correct before waiting for results.
|
||||
|
||||
## Problem Statement
|
||||
|
||||
Current behavior:
|
||||
```
|
||||
User: /last30days kanye west
|
||||
|
||||
Agent: I'll start the research script and web searches in parallel.
|
||||
[immediately runs bash + WebSearch]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Expected behavior:
|
||||
```
|
||||
User: /last30days kanye west
|
||||
|
||||
Agent: 🔍 **kanye west** · News
|
||||
Searching Reddit, X, and the web for the latest on kanye west...
|
||||
|
||||
[then runs bash + WebSearch]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The "Parse User Intent" section in SKILL.md tells the agent to store variables internally but never instructs it to **display** them.
|
||||
|
||||
## Proposed Solution
|
||||
|
||||
Add an explicit "Display your parsing" instruction between the "Parse User Intent" section and "Research Execution" section in SKILL.md. One new block of text — no code changes, no script changes.
|
||||
|
||||
## Acceptance Criteria
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Agent displays parsed TOPIC and QUERY_TYPE before running any tools
|
||||
- [ ] Display is concise (1-2 lines, not a verbose block)
|
||||
- [ ] Agent still runs script + WebSearch in parallel after displaying
|
||||
- [ ] No changes to Python scripts — SKILL.md only
|
||||
|
||||
## Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
### SKILL.md Change
|
||||
|
||||
**File:** `/Users/mvanhorn/last30days-skill-private/SKILL.md`
|
||||
|
||||
After the "Store these variables" block (line ~38) and before "Research Execution" (line ~42), add:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
**DISPLAY your parsing to the user.** Before running any tools, output a single line:
|
||||
|
||||
🔍 **{TOPIC}** · {QUERY_TYPE}
|
||||
Searching Reddit, X, and the web for {natural language description of what you'll look for}...
|
||||
|
||||
Example outputs:
|
||||
- 🔍 **kanye west** · News — Searching Reddit, X, and the web for the latest kanye west news and discussions...
|
||||
- 🔍 **best MCP servers** · Recommendations — Searching Reddit, X, and the web for the most recommended MCP servers...
|
||||
- 🔍 **nano banana pro prompting** · Prompting — Searching Reddit, X, and the web for nano banana pro prompting techniques and tips...
|
||||
- 🔍 **open claw** · General — Searching Reddit, X, and the web for what people are saying about open claw...
|
||||
|
||||
If TARGET_TOOL is known, mention it: "...for nano banana pro prompting techniques to use in ChatGPT..."
|
||||
|
||||
This text MUST appear before you call any tools. It confirms to the user that you understood their request.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Sync
|
||||
|
||||
After editing SKILL.md:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cp /Users/mvanhorn/last30days-skill-private/SKILL.md ~/.claude/skills/last30days/SKILL.md
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Test Plan
|
||||
|
||||
Run in a NEW Claude Code session:
|
||||
1. `/last30days kanye west` — should display: 🔍 **kanye west** · News
|
||||
2. `/last30days best MCP servers` — should display: 🔍 **best MCP servers** · Recommendations
|
||||
3. `/last30days nano banana pro prompting for ChatGPT` — should display with tool mention

# test: V1 vs V2 Comparison Test Plan
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
Run the same queries through both the public v1 and private v2 of last30days, compare output quality across 7 dimensions, and determine if v2 is ready to ship as the new public version.
|
||||
|
||||
**This plan also includes a full feature audit** identifying everything v1 has that v2 is missing — some of those gaps need fixing before shipping.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## How to Run the Comparison
|
||||
|
||||
### Setup
|
||||
|
||||
**V1 (public upstream):** Check out upstream SKILL.md temporarily:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Save current v2
|
||||
cp ~/.claude/skills/last30days/SKILL.md ~/.claude/skills/last30days/SKILL.md.v2
|
||||
|
||||
# Install v1 from upstream
|
||||
cd /Users/mvanhorn/last30days-skill-private
|
||||
git show upstream/main:SKILL.md > ~/.claude/skills/last30days/SKILL.md
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Run test queries in a NEW Claude Code session (one session per query to avoid context bleed). Save output.
|
||||
|
||||
**V2 (private current):** Restore v2:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cp ~/.claude/skills/last30days/SKILL.md.v2 ~/.claude/skills/last30days/SKILL.md
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Run same queries in NEW sessions. Save output.
|
||||

|
||||
#### ❌ MISSING FROM V2 — Features V1 Has That V2 Dropped
|
||||
|
||||
These are the regressions. Some are intentional simplifications, others are real gaps.
|
||||
|
||||
**1. Use Cases Block (intro section)**
|
||||
- **V1 has:** 4 use case examples right after the intro: Prompting, Recommendations, News, General — with concrete examples
|
||||
- **V2 has:** Nothing. Just the intro paragraph.
|
||||
- **Impact:** LOW. The query type detection handles this. But it was nice onboarding.
|
||||
- **Verdict:** Skip — not needed for execution quality.
|
||||
|
||||
**2. Setup Check Section (API key guidance)**
|
||||
- **V1 has:** Full section explaining 3 modes (Full/Partial/Web-Only), first-time setup bash script, "API keys are OPTIONAL" messaging
|
||||
- **V2 has:** Nothing. Script auto-detects.
|
||||
- **Impact:** LOW for experienced users. HIGH for first-time users who don't have keys.
|
||||
- **Verdict:** Skip for now — script handles auto-detection. Consider adding back for public release.
|
||||
|
||||
**3. Anti-Pattern Examples (synthesis quality guard)**
|
||||
- **V1 has:** Explicit anti-pattern block: "If user asks about 'clawdbot skills' and research returns ClawdBot content (self-hosted AI agent), do NOT synthesize this as 'Claude Code skills' just because both involve 'skills'." Plus BAD/GOOD synthesis examples for RECOMMENDATIONS.
|
||||
- **V2 has:** Only "Ground your synthesis in the ACTUAL research content, not your pre-existing knowledge" — no concrete examples.
|
||||
- **Impact:** MEDIUM-HIGH. Without concrete anti-patterns, the agent may conflate similar-sounding things.
|
||||
- **Verdict:** ⚠️ ADD BACK. At minimum, restore the BAD/GOOD RECOMMENDATIONS example and the "don't conflate" warning.
|
||||
|
||||
**4. Self-Check Instruction (pre-display validation)**
|
||||
- **V1 has:** "SELF-CHECK before displaying: Re-read your 'What I learned' section. Does it match what the research ACTUALLY says? If the research was about ClawdBot (a self-hosted AI agent), your summary should be about ClawdBot, not Claude Code. If you catch yourself projecting your own knowledge instead of the research, rewrite it."
|
||||
- **V2 has:** Nothing.
|
||||
- **Impact:** MEDIUM. The self-check forces the model to validate its own output.
|
||||
- **Verdict:** ⚠️ ADD BACK. One line costs nothing and catches hallucination.
|
||||
|
||||
**5. Quality Checklist for Prompts ⭐**
|
||||
- **V1 has:** Explicit checklist before delivering a prompt:
|
||||
```
|
||||
### Quality Checklist:
|
||||
- [ ] FORMAT MATCHES RESEARCH - If research said JSON/structured/etc, prompt IS that format
|
||||
- [ ] Directly addresses what the user said they want to create
|
||||
- [ ] Uses specific patterns/keywords discovered in research
|
||||
- [ ] Ready to paste with zero edits (or minimal [PLACEHOLDERS] clearly marked)
|
||||
- [ ] Appropriate length and style for TARGET_TOOL
|
||||
```
|
||||
- **V2 has:** Only "If research says to use a specific prompt FORMAT, YOU MUST USE THAT FORMAT." — one line instead of 5 checks.
|
||||
- **Impact:** HIGH. This is likely what the user noticed as missing — v1 prompts felt more polished because the agent ran a checklist before delivering.
|
||||
- **Verdict:** ⚠️ ADD BACK. This is the "that's a great prompt" quality feel.
|
||||
|
||||
**6. Prompt Format Anti-Pattern**
|
||||
- **V1 has:** "ANTI-PATTERN: Research says 'use JSON prompts with device specs' but you write plain prose. This defeats the entire purpose of the research."
|
||||
- **V2 has:** Only the positive instruction (use the format research recommends).
|
||||
- **Impact:** MEDIUM. Negative examples ("don't do this") are powerful for LLMs.
|
||||
- **Verdict:** ⚠️ ADD BACK. One line.
|
||||
|
||||
**7. "IF USER ASKS FOR MORE OPTIONS" Section**
|
||||
- **V1 has:** "Only if they ask for alternatives or more prompts, provide 2-3 variations. Don't dump a prompt pack unless requested."
|
||||
- **V2 has:** Nothing about handling multi-prompt requests.
|
||||
- **Impact:** LOW-MEDIUM. Without it, agent might dump multiple prompts unprompted.
|
||||
- **Verdict:** ⚠️ ADD BACK. Two lines.
|
||||
|
||||
**8. Web-Only Mode Stats Template + Promo**
|
||||
- **V1 has:** Separate stats template for web-only mode with "💡 Want engagement metrics? Add API keys..." promo
|
||||
- **V2 has:** Only the full-mode template. If running web-only, agent has no guidance.
|
||||
- **Impact:** MEDIUM for users without API keys.
|
||||
- **Verdict:** Consider adding back for public release. Lower priority for now.
|
||||
|
||||
**9. TARGET_TOOL Question Template**
|
||||
- **V1 has:** Explicit AskUserQuestion block with 4 options: [Most relevant tool], Nano Banana Pro, ChatGPT/Claude, Other
|
||||
- **V2 has:** "run research first, then ask AFTER showing results" — but no actual question template.
|
||||
- **Impact:** LOW-MEDIUM. Agent will still ask, just less structured.
|
||||
- **Verdict:** Skip — not critical.
|
||||
|
||||
**10. Context Memory: "Don't re-search" Instructions**
|
||||
- **V1 has:** Explicit "DO NOT run new WebSearches — you already have the research. Answer from what you learned. Cite the Reddit threads, X posts, and web sources."
|
||||
- **V2 has:** Only "Only do new research if the user explicitly asks about a DIFFERENT topic."
|
||||
- **Impact:** MEDIUM. Without the explicit ban, agent may re-search on follow-ups, wasting time.
|
||||
- **Verdict:** ⚠️ ADD BACK. Three lines.
|
||||
|
||||
**11. Output Summary Footer (emoji + engagement counts)**
|
||||
- **V1 has:** `📚 Expert in: {TOPIC} for {TARGET_TOOL}` and `📊 Based on: {n} Reddit threads ({sum} upvotes) + {n} X posts ({sum} likes) + {n} web pages`
|
||||
- **V2 has:** `Expert in: {TOPIC} for {TARGET_TOOL}` and `Based on: {n} Reddit threads + {n} X posts + {n} web pages` — no emoji, no engagement counts.
|
||||
- **Impact:** LOW but noticeable. The emoji + counts make the footer feel more substantial.
|
||||
- **Verdict:** ⚠️ ADD BACK. Trivial fix.

## Priority Fix List (Before Shipping V2 as Public)
|
||||
|
||||
Based on the audit, these should be restored in V2 before it replaces V1:
|
||||
|
||||
### Must Fix (affects output quality)
|
||||
|
||||
| # | Missing Feature | Why | Effort |
|
||||
|---|----------------|-----|--------|
|
||||
| 1 | **Quality Checklist for prompts** | The "that's a great prompt" feel. V1's 5-point checklist made prompts more polished. | Add 8 lines to SKILL.md |
|
||||
| 2 | **Anti-pattern examples** | BAD/GOOD synthesis examples prevent agent from conflating research. | Add 5 lines |
|
||||
| 3 | **Self-check instruction** | One-line pre-display validation catches hallucination. | Add 2 lines |
|
||||
| 4 | **Context Memory: don't re-search** | Prevents wasting time re-searching on follow-ups. | Add 3 lines |
|
||||
|
||||
### Should Fix (polish)
|
||||
|
||||
| # | Missing Feature | Why | Effort |
|
||||
|---|----------------|-----|--------|
|
||||
| 5 | **Prompt format anti-pattern** | Negative example reinforces "match the format". | Add 2 lines |
|
||||
| 6 | **"IF USER ASKS FOR MORE OPTIONS"** | Prevents prompt dumping. | Add 2 lines |
|
||||
| 7 | **Output footer emoji + engagement counts** | More polished footer. | Edit 3 lines |
|
||||
|
||||
### Skip for Now (nice-to-have for public release)
|
||||
|
||||
| # | Missing Feature | Why Skip |
|
||||
|---|----------------|----------|
|
||||
| 8 | Use cases block (intro) | Doesn't affect execution |
|
||||
| 9 | Setup Check section | Script auto-detects; add back for public README |
|
||||
| 10 | Web-only mode stats + promo | Lower priority, most users have keys |
|
||||
| 11 | TARGET_TOOL question template | Agent handles this naturally |

## Execution Plan
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 1: Fix the gaps first
|
||||
Apply the 7 "Must Fix" + "Should Fix" items from the audit to V2 SKILL.md. This takes ~20 minutes since it's all small text additions.
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 2: Smoke test (4 queries)
|
||||
Run queries #14 (kanye west), #2 (best clawdbot use cases), #8 (photorealistic nano banana pro), #10 (DeepSeek R1) on V2 only. Verify the fixes work.
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 3: Full comparison (all 17 queries)
|
||||
Run all 17 queries on both V1 and V2. Fill scorecards.
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 4: Follow-up vision tests (4 queries)
|
||||
Run the 4 follow-up vision tests. Compare prompt quality — this is where the quality checklist fix matters most.
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 5: Analysis
|
||||
- Sum scores per version across all queries
|
||||
- Identify any dimension where v1 consistently beats v2
|
||||
- Decision: ship v2, or fix more gaps first
|
||||
|
||||
## Acceptance Criteria
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] Feature audit complete (this document)
