Isolate eval subprocesses from local yt-dlp config and fix nDCG normalization against the judged pool.
Validation: uv run python -m unittest tests.test_evaluate_search_quality
This workspace uses GOOGLE_API_KEY as the canonical Google credential. Accept it ahead of the Gemini-specific aliases so the local evaluation harness can run without a separate GEMINI_API_KEY export.
Validation: uv run python -m unittest tests.test_env_project tests.test_evaluate_search_quality and a one-shot keychain-backed resolution check.
Add an optional local evaluator that compares a baseline revision against a candidate checkout, computes deterministic stability metrics, and can call Gemini for judged ranking metrics when configured.
The harness isolates child runs with a temporary HOME and a node-free PATH so historical revisions cannot trigger Bird browser-cookie auth during evaluation.
Validation: uv run python -m unittest and local smoke/full deterministic eval runs.
Score against original user intent on Reddit, remove the artificial low-end relevance floor, and make Polymarket semantics dominate generic market quality signals.
Also apply the relevance filter to Polymarket and update the affected cross-source tests.
Validation: uv run python -m unittest
- Remove duplicate detect_query_type from query.py (divergent 5-type version);
canonical 7-type version lives in query_type.py
- Fix reddit.py import to use query_type.detect_query_type
- Clean unused STOPWORDS/SYNONYMS/tokenize imports from youtube_yt, instagram,
tiktok, scrapecreators_x, bird_x after relevance consolidation
- Fix _relevance_filter default from 0.7 to 0.0 (items without relevance
should not silently pass the filter)
- Remove --dateafter from yt-dlp (returns 0 results for evergreen topics)
- Remove restrictSearchableAttributes from HN search (misses Ask/Show HN)
- Lower HN points filter from >5 to >2 (avoids filtering niche posts)
- Add error logging to select_openai_model HTTP failures
- Remove mise.toml and internal planning doc from repo
- Update module docstrings to describe current purpose, not migration history
- Update tests to import from canonical relevance module
- hackernews: use extract_core_subject instead of raw topic, add
points>5 filter and restrictSearchableAttributes=title to reduce
noise from URL-match and low-signal posts
- youtube: add --dateafter parameter to yt-dlp for server-side date
filtering (Python soft filter still handles fallback)
- reddit: skip opinion/review query variant for how_to/comparison
queries where it adds noise
- bird_x: add OR-group retry with compound terms before falling back
to word-dropping (uses X OR operator for multi-concept queries)
- query.py: add detect_query_type() and extract_compound_terms()
Consolidate duplicated _extract_core_subject() (7 copies across bird_x,
reddit, youtube_yt, tiktok, instagram, bluesky, scrapecreators_x) into
query.extract_core_subject() with parameterized noise set, max_words,
and suffix stripping.
Consolidate duplicated _tokenize/_compute_relevance/STOPWORDS/SYNONYMS
(4 copies across youtube_yt, tiktok, instagram, scrapecreators_x) into
relevance.token_overlap_relevance() with hashtag-aware matching.
Integration into per-module imports follows in next commits.
The task profile is search tool invocation + JSON extraction — not
reasoning or creative work. Mini models handle this equally well at
3-5x lower cost per call.
OpenAI changes:
- Rename is_mainline_openai_model -> is_search_capable_model
- Include mini variants (gpt-5-mini, gpt-4.1-mini) in candidate pool
- Exclude gpt-4o-mini (no domain filtering) and nano (no web_search)
- select_openai_model() now prefers mini within newest generation
- OPENAI_FALLBACK_MODELS: gpt-5-mini first, mainline as last resort
- MODEL_FALLBACK_ORDER: same mini-first ordering
xAI changes:
- Switch alias from grok-4-1-fast (reasoning) to
grok-4-1-fast-non-reasoning — same token price, faster response,
no wasted reasoning tokens for structured extraction
Cost per Reddit search call: ~$0.015 (gpt-5-mini) vs ~$0.044 (gpt-4.1)
Brave's /res/v1/llm/context returns pre-extracted text chunks
optimized for LLM consumption instead of URLs + short snippets.
Enable with BRAVE_LLM_CONTEXT=1 env var; same API key and pricing.
- Add _search_llm_context() and _normalize_llm_context() to brave_search.py
- Wire opt-in flag through _search_web() in last30days.py
- Update module docstring (free tier eliminated Feb 2026)
- Add 23 tests covering normalization, filtering, date parsing
Detect query type (product/concept/opinion/how_to/comparison/breaking_news/
prediction) via lightweight regex patterns and use it for:
1. Source selection: each query type has tier-1 (always run) and tier-2
(run if available) sources. Unlisted sources are opt-in only.
Truth Social is always opt-in regardless of query type.
2. WebSearch penalty: varies by query type instead of flat -15pt.
Concept queries get 0 penalty (web docs are authoritative),
how_to gets 5pt, breaking_news gets 10pt, product/opinion get 15pt.
3. Tiebreaker ordering: source priority varies by query type.
YouTube ranks first for how_to, Polymarket for prediction,
HN for concept queries, X for breaking news.
All changes are backward-compatible: callers that don't pass query_type
get the original behavior (15pt penalty, Reddit > X > YouTube tiebreaker).
Model optimization (mini-first fallback, is_search_capable_model) belongs
in PR #67. This PR stays focused on endpoint/API fixes only.
Also fixes pre-existing test bug where test asserted gpt-4o was first in
MODEL_FALLBACK_ORDER when it was actually gpt-4.1.
- Instagram: migrate /v1/ to /v2/ ScrapeCreators endpoint (v1 deprecated Feb 2026)
- OpenAI: switch fallback chain to [gpt-5-mini, gpt-4.1-mini, gpt-4.1] (8x cheaper,
gpt-5-mini is the first mini model supporting web_search with filters.allowed_domains)
- xAI: use explicit grok-4-1-fast-non-reasoning (bare name aliases to reasoning variant)
- xAI: pass from_date/to_date natively to x_search tool config instead of prompt-only
- Polymarket: correct rate limit comment (15K/10s, not 350/10s)
- test_models: update xAI model expectations to grok-4-1-fast (matching
current XAI_POLICY_MAP)
- test_openai_reddit: update fallback order assertion to gpt-4.1 (matching
current MODEL_FALLBACK_ORDER)
- test_codex_auth: expect 'reddit' not 'web' when no API keys (Reddit
is available via public JSON fallback)
- test_truthsocial: convert from pytest-style classes to unittest.TestCase,
fix import path to use sys.path.insert pattern (matching all other tests)
Mastodon-compatible API at truthsocial.com/api/v2/search.
Opt-in via TRUTHSOCIAL_TOKEN env var (bearer token from browser).
Silent when unconfigured. Full pipeline: search, parse, normalize,
score, dedupe, render across all 10 pipeline files.
27 new tests, 440 total passing.

searchPosts endpoint now returns 403 for unauthenticated requests.
Add session auth via createSession, gate on BSKY_HANDLE + BSKY_APP_PASSWORD
env vars. When unconfigured, Bluesky is completely invisible (no error).

Free, no-auth-required search via public.api.bsky.app.
Always-on like HN and Polymarket (no API key needed).
- New scripts/lib/bluesky.py: search + parse via AT Protocol
- BlueskyItem schema, normalization, scoring, deduplication
- Wired into orchestrator ThreadPoolExecutor with timeout config
- Rendering in compact, full, and JSON output modes
- 14 unit tests covering parsing, dates, relevance, edge cases
- --search=bluesky / --search=bsky for bluesky-only mode

One SCRAPECREATORS_API_KEY now covers Reddit, TikTok, Instagram, AND X.
Priority: Bird (free) > xAI API > ScrapeCreators (shared key).
New module scrapecreators_x.py follows the same pattern as tiktok.py.
Updated env.py source routing and last30days.py orchestrator dispatch.
Includes 20 unit tests.
Fixes#55.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add per-project configuration via .claude/last30days.env, discovered by
walking up from cwd. Uses the same .env format as the existing global
config — no new parsers or formats.
Priority (highest wins):
1. Environment variables
2. .claude/last30days.env (per-project)
3. ~/.config/last30days/.env (global)
Also adds file permission checking — warns to stderr if config files
are readable by other users (should be chmod 600).
Includes tests for discovery, precedence, source tracking, and
permission warnings.

Convert all new tests from bare pytest style to unittest.TestCase
with sys.path.insert, matching the convention used by all existing
tests. Remove pyproject.toml and conftest.py.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add pytest infrastructure (pyproject.toml, conftest.py) and unit tests
for modules that previously had zero test coverage:
- test_schema_roundtrip.py: to_dict() serialization for all data classes
- test_reddit_enrich.py: URL parsing, thread data parsing, comment filtering
- test_reddit_sc.py: ScrapeCreators Reddit search (query expansion, subreddit discovery)
- test_instagram_sc.py: Instagram relevance scoring, tokenization, depth config
Includes fixtures/reddit_thread_sample.json for reddit_enrich tests.

Root cause of empty TikTok results: Apify required monthly subscription.
ScrapeCreators is PAYG with 100 free credits and no subscription.
Key fix: ScrapeCreators nests items under aweme_info wrapper
(search_item_list[].aweme_info.{fields}), which the previous
implementation missed, causing all fields to be empty.
Changes:
- Rewrite tiktok.py to use ScrapeCreators REST API
- Add aweme_info unwrapping for correct field extraction
- Add transcript fetching via /video/transcript endpoint
- Add SCRAPECREATORS_API_KEY to env.py config
- Update last30days.py to use env.get_tiktok_token()
- Delete apify_client_wrapper.py (no longer needed)
- Update tests for new date field format (create_time)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add TikTok search, scoring, and rendering using the Apify platform
(clockworks/tiktok-scraper actor). Users bring their own APIFY_API_TOKEN
($5/month free credits, no CC required). The shared apify_client_wrapper
module is designed for reuse by future Facebook/Instagram sources.
- New modules: tiktok.py (search + caption extraction), apify_client_wrapper.py
- Schema: TikTokItem dataclass, shares field on Engagement, Report.tiktok
- Pipeline: normalize → filter → score → sort → dedupe → cross-link → render
- Scoring: 0.50*log1p(views) + 0.30*log1p(likes) + 0.20*log1p(comments)
- SKILL.md bumped to v2.7 with TikTok stats, citations, and security docs
- 26 unit tests covering relevance, normalize, score, dedupe, render, round-trip

Cherry-picked from PR #24 (el-analista). Adds trending/viral/plugin/skill/tool
noise words to _extract_core_subject, and a last-chance retry that falls back
to the longest non-noise token when 2-word retry also returns 0 results.
cache.py and render.py env overrides were already on main.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The test was picking up the real OPENAI_API_KEY from the shell
environment, causing it to fail on any machine with that key set.
Added @patch.dict(os.environ, {}, clear=True) so the test runs in
a clean env and exercises the file_env path as intended.

* chore: fix YAML error in argument-hint
* add codex auth support to responses API
* Use gpt-5.1-codex-mini as default model for Codex auth
Add CODEX_FALLBACK_MODELS chain (gpt-5.1-codex-mini → gpt-5.2) for
Codex endpoint which doesn't support standard OpenAI models like
gpt-4o-mini. Adds model fallback retry on 400 errors in the Codex
search path. Also adds test_codex_auth.py with 22 unit tests covering
JWT decoding, auth resolution, SSE parsing, and payload building.
* Pass .env credentials to Bird Node subprocesses for X auth
On platforms without browser cookie access (e.g. WSL2), Bird's
vendored Node.js module cannot read AUTH_TOKEN/CT0 from Firefox
or Chrome cookie stores. The .env config file already supports
these values, but they were only loaded into the Python config
dict — never exported to the environment of Node subprocesses.
- Add AUTH_TOKEN/CT0 to env.py config key loading
- Add set_credentials()/\_subprocess_env() to bird_x.py to inject
credentials into the env dict passed to subprocess.run/Popen
- Call set_credentials() in main() before Bird auth detection

The Gamma API only searches event titles/slugs, missing markets where the
topic is an outcome (e.g., "Arizona" in NCAA Tournament Winner). This adds:
- All-word query expansion (not just first word): "Arizona Basketball" now
searches "Arizona", "Basketball" independently
- Tag-based domain expansion: extracts category tags (e.g., "NCAA") from
first-pass results and searches those as a second pass
- Neg-risk binary market synthesis: shows team names from market questions
instead of generic Yes/No outcomes
- Question shortening: extracts "Arizona" from "Will Arizona win the NCAA
Tournament?" for clean display
- Increased depth (3 pages) and result caps (15) for more coverage
Live results: "Arizona Basketball" now finds NCAA Tournament Winner (12%),
#1 Seed (88%), Big 12 Champion (69%). "Iran War" returns 15 markets (up
from 9) with no regression.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- _compute_text_similarity() now checks outcome names with bidirectional
substring matching (0.85) and token overlap (0.7), not just event titles
- Collect outcomes from ALL active markets per event, filter to >1% price
- Reorder outcome_prices to surface topic-matching outcome before top-3 truncation
- Add SKILL.md "Prediction Markets" synthesis section with structural/long-term
market preference, domain examples, citation format, and narrative weaving
- Add Polymarket to citation priority list between HN and Web
- Update stats box template to show up to 5 market odds
- Fix render.py "vol24h" label to "volume"
- Add NCAA seed fixture event for outcome-only matching tests
- 82 polymarket tests pass (14 new)

Polymarket results now rank by text similarity, volume, liquidity, price
movement, and competitive score instead of API return position. Also fixes
pagination (DEPTH_CONFIG now controls page count, not a no-op limit param)
and caps results after re-ranking.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Search Polymarket's free Gamma API for relevant prediction markets on any
topic. Uses smart multi-query expansion to cast a wider net (e.g., "Arizona
Basketball" also searches "Arizona"), merges and dedupes by event ID, and
shows price movement context ("up 22.5% this week"). No API key required.
Also hides sources with zero results from the stats output (all sources).
54 new tests, all passing. Full pipeline integration with scoring, dedupe,
cross-source linking, and rendering.

YouTube videos now get real relevance scores based on token overlap
between the search query and video title (was hardcoded at 0.7).
Uses ratio overlap with stopword removal, floored at 0.1.
Cross-source linking annotates items that discuss the same story
across different platforms (e.g., Reddit + HN + X). Items get
bidirectional cross_refs displayed as [xref: R3, HN5] in compact
output so Claude can triangulate multi-platform coverage.

HN was appearing before YouTube in the stats block, sort tiebreaker,
and source status. Now consistently: Reddit > X > YouTube > HN > Web.
Also restored emoji + box-drawing chars in test skill SKILL.md.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add HN search via free Algolia API (no key needed). Two-phase approach:
search for stories, then enrich top ones with comments. Integrated into
the full pipeline (normalize, score, dedupe, render) running in parallel
with Reddit/X/YouTube. Source priority: Reddit > X > HN > YouTube > Web.
