Internet connectivity for RSS feed access ## Instructions 1. **Assess user intent** - determine filters needed: - General news: no filters, use defaults - Coin-specific: extract symbol (BTC, ETH, etc.) - Category-specific: extract category (defi, nft, regulatory, etc.) - Time-specific: extract window (1h, 4h, 24h, 7d) 2. **Run the aggregator** with appropriate filters: ```bash # Default scan (top 20, past 24h, relevance sorted) python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/news_aggregator.py # Coin-specific scan python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/news_aggregator.py --coin BTC --period 4h # Category filter python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/news_aggregator.py --category defi --top 30 # Multiple filters python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/news_aggregator.py --coin ETH --category defi --period 24h --top 15 ``` 3. **Export results** for downstream processing: ```bash python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/news_aggregator.py --format json --output news.json ``` 4. **Present results** to the user: - Show source, title, age, and relevance score - Highlight market-moving keywords if present - Provide links for full articles - Summarize meta information (sources checked, articles found) ## Output Table showing articles ranked by relevance score (0-100) based on market-moving keyword detection, source authority, and recency: ``` ============================================================================== CRYPTO NEWS AGGREGATOR Updated: 2026-01-14 15:30 # 2026 - current year timestamp ============================================================================== TOP CRYPTO NEWS (24h) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rank Source Title Age Score ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1 CoinDesk Bitcoin Breaks $100K ATH 2h 95.0 2 The Block SEC Approves ETH ETF 4h 92.5 3 Decrypt Solana DeFi TVL Surges 6h 78.3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Summary: 20 articles shown | Scanned: 50 sources | Matched: 187 ============================================================================== ``` ## Error Handling | Error | Cause | Solution | |-------|-------|----------| | Network timeout | RSS feed unreachable | Uses cached data; skips unavailable sources | | Parse error | Malformed RSS | Skips entry; continues with valid articles | | No results | Filters too strict | Suggest relaxing filters | | Invalid coin | Unknown symbol | List similar valid symbols | See [`references/errors.md`](references/errors.md) for comprehensive error handling. ## Examples Filtering patterns for common news monitoring scenarios: ```bash # Latest crypto news (defaults) python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/news_aggregator.py # Bitcoin news from past 4 hours python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/news_aggregator.py --coin BTC --period 4h # DeFi category news python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/news_aggregator.py --category defi # High-relevance news only python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/news_aggregator.py --min-score 70 --top 10 # Multiple coins python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/news_aggregator.py --coins BTC,ETH,SOL ``` ## Resources - [`references/implementation.md`](references/implementation.md) - CLI options, categories, JSON format, advanced filtering - [`references/errors.md`](references/errors.md) - Comprehensive error handling - [`references/examples.md`](references/examples.md) - Detailed usage examples - `${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/config/sources.yaml` - Full source registry - CoinDesk RSS: https://www.coindesk.com/arc/outboundfeeds/rss/ - feedparser docs: https://feedparser.readthedocs.io/ --- Source attribution: jeremylongshore Original project: https://github.com/jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins-plus-skills/blob/ab85a061f7bcc039dac13ee193de7a4cd4388571/plugins/crypto/crypto-news-aggregator/skills/aggregating-crypto-news/SKILL.md License: MIT License information: https://opensource.org/license/mit Original upstream instructions; downloaded from Mega AI Hub. ## Upstream license notice MIT License Copyright (c) 2024-2026 Jeremy Longshore & Contributors Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.
