last30days-skill
AI agent skill that researches any topic across Reddit, X, YouTube, HN, Polymarket, and the web - then synthesizes a grounded summary
last30days-skill is an AI agent skill that researches any topic by aggregating content from Reddit, X (Twitter), YouTube, Hacker News, Polymarket, GitHub, TikTok, and other platforms, then synthesizes findings into a single grounded summary. It searches across disconnected social platforms simultaneously, ranks results by engagement metrics (upvotes, likes, real-money predictions), and delivers what real people are discussing rather than SEO-optimized editorial content. Built for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot, and 50+ agent hosts, the skill works out-of-the-box for Reddit, HN, and GitHub, with optional API keys unlocking additional sources.
