A Claude Code SKILL for daily tech briefings — no external AI API key required.

Extracted and adapted from the [Horizon](https://github.com/Thysrael/Horizon) open-source project. Horizon is an AI-driven information aggregation system; this skill packages its data-fetching capabilities into a standalone Claude Code skill, using Claude itself for analysis.

How It Works

config.json → fetch.py → fetched.json → AI scoring → selected.json
                                            ↓
                                  download_images.py
                                            ↓
                          media-manifest.json + Markdown

1. Fetch — fetch.py pulls items from all configured sources into fetched.json
2. Score — Claude evaluates each item in-context (novelty, impact, depth, community signal, timeliness) and writes the Top-N selection to selected.json
3. Download media — when media is enabled, download_images.py downloads only images for selected articles and records results in media-manifest.json
4. Summarize — Claude writes a daily digest in each configured language
5. Analyze — Claude generates a deep-dive article for each top item

Features

• First-party AI updates — Follow engineering, research, model, and product updates from major AI organizations.
• Multi-source aggregation — Read official pages, RSS/Atom, GitHub Releases, arXiv, Hacker News, Reddit, and Telegram through one workflow.
• AI scoring and Top-N selection — Rank items by novelty, impact, technical depth, community signal, and timeliness.
• Bilingual briefings and deep dives — Generate configured Chinese and English summaries plus one analysis article per selected item.
• Source-image archiving — Use successfully downloaded source candidates for summary thumbnails, article Hero images, inline figures, and captions.
• Per-article asset ownership — Store every article image u
