From f98a0b9f3568a5429dae0757b650705bb18f37ef Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matt Van Horn Date: Sat, 24 Jan 2026 10:23:32 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] feat: Add WebSearch as third source with zero-config fallback Add Claude's built-in WebSearch tool as a third research source for /last30days. This enables the skill to work out of the box with zero API keys while preserving Reddit/X as the primary sources. Key changes: - Add WebSearchItem schema for web results (no engagement metrics) - Add score_websearch_items() with 55/45 relevance/recency weighting - Apply -15pt source penalty so WebSearch ranks below Reddit/X - Add --include-web CLI flag to opt-in to WebSearch - Return 'web' mode when no API keys configured (zero-config) - Update render.py with [WEB] source label formatting When WebSearch is enabled, the script outputs instructions for Claude to use its built-in WebSearch tool, then synthesize results together.
