About this skill

Problem

When a user asks for “tech news,” “AI updates,” or “finance trends,” a generic news feed can mix top stories, cross-domain items, and noise. This skill narrows the query to a specific ZAKER category, making it easier to get recent updates for one vertical.

How It Works

The core step is calling get_category_articles:

  • Detect category: infer intent such as technology, finance, sports, entertainment, internet, automotive, military, domestic, or international;
  • Build request: map the intent to an app_id, for example technology is 13, finance is 4, sports is 8;
  • Fetch data: the endpoint returns 20 articles sorted by publish time in descending order;
  • Format output: present each item with a clickable Markdown title, summary, and author in parentheses.

It fits soft category queries, follow-up questions from top news, and switching between domains. Note that the API requires no API key, but categories are limited to the fixed ZAKER app_id set and each call returns a fixed 20 items. If pagination, deeper result sets, or keyword-level search is required, another capability should be used.

Use Cases

  • Before drafting a tech weekly, pull the 20 latest technology items to shortlist stories by title, summary, and link.
  • For a finance morning brief, format the 20 latest finance items into a Markdown list with summaries for quick review.
  • After viewing top stories, answer a follow-up like 'only sports' by fetching the latest sports category items.
  • Compare tech and finance updates by calling `app_id=13` and `app_id=4` for 20 latest items in each category.

Best For

  • A tech-content editor who needs technology-category titles, summaries, and links to shortlist candidate stories.
  • A finance analyst preparing a morning brief who wants the latest 20 finance items formatted for quick review.
  • An agent-workflow engineer who wants to route category news queries to `get_category_articles`.
  • An operations writer compiling an industry daily who needs fixed categories such as sports, entertainment, and internet.
