pulse

v2.9.0

Multi-source recency research skill. Takes the pulse of any topic across Reddit, Hacker News, the open web, and (optionally) X/Twitter within a configurable recent window (default 30 days). Forcing 2–4 question grill-me intake clarifies topic specificity, angle (trend/sentiment/problems/opportunities/comparison), time window, and platform scope before searching. Phases 1–3 run in parallel per the research-pack convention. Returns a synthesized briefing with citations, engagement metrics, and cross-platform pattern analysis. Source spec: megaprompts/01-pulse-megaprompt.md (PR #657). Implements the Agent Integrity Rules block locked down by PR #657 audit: 1 q/sec per platform, three-count tracking (sent/received/cited), retry-once-after-3s, stop-after-3-consecutive-failures.

Multi-source recency research skill that takes the pulse of any topic across Reddit, Hacker News, the open web, and optionally X/Twitter within a configurable recent window (default 30 days). Forcing intake clarifies topic specificity, angle (trend/sentiment/problems/opportunities/comparison), time window, and platform scope before searching. Returns a synthesized briefing with citations, engagement metrics, and cross-platform pattern analysis. Use when the user requests multi-source recency intelligence on a topic (e.g., 'pulse on [topic]', 'what's happening with [topic]', 'what are people saying about [topic]', 'current conversation about [topic]', 'take the pulse of [topic]', 'trending: [topic]', 'find me info on [topic]'), and for competitor research, trend discovery, tool comparisons, and audience sentiment analysis.
