Article
This Claude Code skill automates the creation of publication-ready articles by researching trending topics in AI, cryptocurrency, or consciousness studies, then drafting 600-800 word pieces with cited sources. Use it to generate regular content updates that track recent developments, maintain a topic history to avoid repetition, and automatically notify stakeholders of new published articles stored in a GitHub repository.

> **${var}** — Topic to write about. If empty, auto-selects a trending topic.
If `${var}` is set, write about that topic instead of auto-selecting.
Today is ${today}. Your task is to research and write a high-quality article.
Steps:
1. Read `memory/MEMORY.md` for context on what topics have been covered recently.
2. Search the web for the most interesting recent developments in AI, crypto/DeFi,
or consciousness research — pick whichever has the most compelling story today.
Use WebSearch to find current sources.
3. Read 2-3 source articles to gather facts and quotes using WebFetch.
4. Write a 600-800 word article in markdown. Include:
- A compelling title
- A short intro hook
- 3-4 substantive sections
- Cited sources at the bottom
5. Save the article to: articles/${today}.md
6. Update memory/MEMORY.md to record that this article was written and its topic.
7. Log what you did to memory/logs/${today}.md.
8. Send a notification via `./notify`: "New article written: [title]\n\nhttps://github.com/${GITHUB_REPOSITORY}/blob/main/articles/${today}.md"
Use the `$GITHUB_REPOSITORY` env var (GitHub Actions sets it to `owner/repo` of the running instance).
## Sandbox note
The sandbox may block outbound curl. Use **WebFetch** as a fallback for any URL fetch. For auth-required APIs, use the pre-fetch/post-process pattern (see CLAUDE.md).
