last30days Skill

Agent Skills package for researching any topic across Reddit, X, YouTube, and web. Installable across Claude Code (most common host), Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, and 50+ other Agent Skills hosts. Python scripts with multi-source search aggregation.

Structure

• skills/last30days/SKILL.md — canonical skill definition
• skills/last30days/scripts/last30days.py — main research engine
• skills/last30days/scripts/lib/ — search, enrichment, rendering modules
• skills/last30days/scripts/lib/vendor/bird-search/ — vendored X search client

Orientation

• This is an Agent Skills package, not a CLI tool. The product is the slash-command-invoked skill (/last30days <topic> in most harnesses); scripts/last30days.py is implementation. Claude Code is the most common host but not the only one — features must work across every harness the skill installs into.
• Feature design starts from the slash-command UX. A new engine flag with no SKILL.md integration is incomplete — the model invoking the skill won't know the flag exists.
• README and PR examples show /last30days <topic> first. Direct CLI invocation (python3 scripts/last30days.py ...) is a fallback for scripting, cron, and dev-time engine testing; label it as such, never as the primary path.
• Slash commands don't pass shell mechanics through. /last30days OpenClaw --emit=html | pbcopy is invalid in any harness — either use the slash form (no flags or pipes; let the model translate user intent into engine flags) or use the direct CLI form (full python3 ... with explicit flags and a real shell).

Commands

# Dev/fallback: direct engine invocation (scripting, cron, or engine testing only)
python3 skills/last30days/scripts/last30days.py "test query" --emit=compact
npx skills add . -g -y   # one-time: symlink this repo into every detected harness's skill dir

## Rules
- `lib/__init__.py` must be bare package marker (comment only, NO eager imports)
- One-time setup: `npx skills add . -g -y` creates symlinks from each detected harness's skill dir to this repo. Edits in the working tree propagate live to every harness — no re-deploy step needed.
- Git remote: origin = public (`mvanhorn/last30days-skill`)

## Beta channel

Experimental changes get tested on `mvanhorn/last30days-skill-private`, which installs as a parallel `/last30days-beta` slash command. Beta-only changes never ship to public without a review PR here. Workflow guide lives at `BETA.md` in the private repo. Plan that established this setup: `docs/plans/2026-04-17-005-feat-beta-skill-from-private-repo-plan.md`.
