blog-discourse
Agent skill fromAgriciDaniel/claude-blog
Research what people are actually saying about a topic in the last 30 days across Reddit, X / Twitter, YouTube, Hacker News, dev.to, Medium, and other public discourse platforms. API-free; uses WebSearch with platform-targeted site operators plus recency filters. Produces DISCOURSE.md (a structured brief) and JSON output the writer can consume. Complements blog-researcher (which focuses on authority sources) with a recency-and-engagement lens. Not for verifying statistics (blog-factcheck) or gathering authority sources. Use when user says "blog discourse", "discourse research", "what are people saying about", "research what people are saying", "voice of customer", "social listening", "30-day research", "trend research", "what's the discussion on", "real-time research", "practitioner discourse", "/blog discourse".
