China Tech News Aggregator

Problem

Domestic tech, big-company, developer-community, and business signals are scattered across hot lists, RSS feeds, engineering blogs, and business media. Manually opening each source, deduplicating items, filtering by topic, and formatting a briefing is time-consuming. English outlets may update quickly, but they often lack the Chinese product context, local cloud vendors, and domestic developer-community perspective. This skill turns source aggregation, keyword filtering, template rendering, and report saving into a reusable workflow for engineers who need a quick Chinese tech or business morning brief.

How It Works

It mainly uses the public uapis.cn hot-list API, supplemented by a small number of official RSS feeds, covering about 21 sources such as Weibo, Zhihu, Bilibili, Juejin, CSDN, 36Kr, Huxiu, Jiqizhixin, and others. The core script fetch_news.py can target specific --source values, --keyword filters, and --limit counts. The scenario script daily_briefing.py provides templates such as general, tech, ai_focus, and business. Output is rendered in simplified Chinese and saved under reports/YYYY-MM-DD/_report.md, with generation strictly based on the fetched JSON results rather than invented facts.

Boundaries

It is best used for daily Chinese tech, business, and hot-topic briefings, not as a real-time alerting system, fact-checking service, copyright review tool, or deep-research pipeline. Public APIs may suffer source-side rate limits, missing fields, or delayed hot-list updates; when results are sparse, the workflow can widen the time window and mark the uncertainty. If the goal is overseas tech coverage, multilingual translation, or long-term knowledge-base accumulation, those needs should be extended separately.
