Initial commit: last30days skill

Research topics across Reddit + X from the last 30 days using
OpenAI and xAI APIs. Features:
- Auto model selection (GPT-5.x, Grok-3)
- Popularity-aware scoring (relevance + recency + engagement)
- Reddit thread enrichment with real metrics
- Near-duplicate detection
- Multiple emit modes (compact, json, context, path)
- 24h caching with --refresh bypass
- NUX for API key setup
- 87 passing unit tests

# last30days: 30-Day Research Synthesis
Research a topic across Reddit and X from the last 30 days, then synthesize findings into actionable best practices, prompts, and reusable context.
## Setup Check
First, verify API key configuration exists:
```bash
if [ ! -f ~/.config/last30days/.env ]; then
echo "SETUP_NEEDED"
else
echo "CONFIGURED"
fi
```
### If SETUP_NEEDED
Run the NUX flow to configure API keys. Use the AskUserQuestion tool to collect:
1. **OpenAI API Key** (optional but recommended for Reddit research)
2. **xAI API Key** (optional but recommended for X research)
3. **Model policies** (optional, defaults are usually fine)
Then create the config:
```bash
mkdir -p ~/.config/last30days
cat > ~/.config/last30days/.env << 'ENVEOF'
# last30days API Configuration
# At least one key is required
OPENAI_API_KEY=
XAI_API_KEY=
# Model selection (optional)
# OPENAI_MODEL_POLICY=auto|pinned (default: auto)
# OPENAI_MODEL_PIN=gpt-5.2 (only if pinned)
# XAI_MODEL_POLICY=latest|stable|pinned (default: latest)
# XAI_MODEL_PIN=grok-4 (only if pinned)
ENVEOF
chmod 600 ~/.config/last30days/.env
echo "Config created at ~/.config/last30days/.env"
echo "Please edit it to add your API keys, then run the skill again."
```
After creating the file, instruct the user to edit `~/.config/last30days/.env` and add their keys.
**STOP HERE if setup was needed. Do not proceed until keys are configured.**
---
## Research Execution
If configured, run the research orchestrator:
```bash
python3 ~/.claude/skills/last30days/scripts/last30days.py "$ARGUMENTS" --emit=compact 2>&1
```
The script will:
- Auto-detect which keys are available
- Auto-select the best models (or use pinned versions)
- Search Reddit via OpenAI Responses API (if OpenAI key present)
- Search X via xAI Responses API (if xAI key present)
- Enrich Reddit threads with real engagement metrics
- Score, rank, and dedupe results
- Output files to `~/.local/share/last30days/out/`
---
## RESEARCH DATA
The output above contains the research data. Now synthesize it.
---
## Your Role: Judge and Synthesizer
You are now the expert judge. Using the research data above, produce:
### A) Best Practices (Grouped & Actionable)
Group findings into 3-7 thematic categories. For each best practice:
- State the practice clearly and actionably
- Cite supporting item IDs (e.g., "supported by R3, R7, X2")
- Note if it's **strongly supported** (multiple high-score sources) or **niche** (single source or low engagement)
### B) Prompt Pack (3-7 Copy/Paste Prompts)
Create ready-to-use prompts tailored to the topic. Each prompt should:
- Be immediately usable (copy/paste ready)
- Target a specific use case discovered in the research
- Include any relevant context or constraints from the findings
### C) Reusable Context Snippet
Create a compact (~200-400 words) context block that other skills/tools can import. Include:
- Core concepts and terminology
- Key techniques or patterns
- Common pitfalls to avoid
- Brief source attribution
### D) Sources Appendix
List all source URLs organized by platform:
- **Reddit**: Title, subreddit, URL, score
- **X**: Author, text excerpt, URL, engagement
### E) Confidence Assessment
Explicitly state:
- **Strongly Supported**: Practices backed by multiple high-engagement sources
- **Emerging/Niche**: Practices from single sources or low engagement (still valuable but use with awareness)
- **Gaps**: What the research didn't cover well

## Final Output
After completing your synthesis:
1. Display the full report to the user
2. Confirm the files were written:
- `~/.local/share/last30days/out/report.md`
- `~/.local/share/last30days/out/report.json`
- `~/.local/share/last30days/out/last30days.context.md`
3. Show the header summary:
```
Models used: OpenAI={model} xAI={model}
Mode: {reddit-only|x-only|both}
Coverage: {note about triangulation if single-source}
```
