We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

5 rules. 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 6 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 3

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 2

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Very specific:

    Before helping, check MEMORY.md for: brand name, competitors, ICP pain phrases.

    line 9
  2. Distinctive:

    Follow output preferences from USER.md.

    line 10
  3. Distinctive:

    Search for mentions across blogs, forums, news:

    line 21
  4. Distinctive:

    Search Twitter for mentions:

    line 41
  5. Very specific:

    Use Exa contents.text: true to get actual content, not just links

    line 104

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 6 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

[YOUR_PRODUCT] Context

Before helping, check MEMORY.md for: brand name, competitors, ICP pain phrases. Follow output preferences from USER.md. For chat platforms: bullet-point summary of key findings, not raw data.

Social Listening

Track brand mentions, competitor activity, and industry conversations across the web and social media.

Workflow

Step 1: Web Mentions (Exa)

Search for mentions across blogs, forums, news:

orth run exa /search -d '{"query": "SEARCH_QUERY", "numResults": 20, "contents": {"text": true}}'

Query examples:

  • Brand monitoring: "[YOUR_PRODUCT] reviews feedback 2026"
  • Competitor tracking: "[COMPETITOR_A] [PAIN_KEYWORDS]"
  • Pain signals: "[PAIN_KEYWORDS your buyers complain about]"
  • Industry trends: "[YOUR_CATEGORY] enterprise adoption 2026"

Step 2: Twitter/X Activity (Scrape Creators)

Monitor a company or person's tweets:

orth run scrapecreators /v1/twitter/user-tweets -q handle=TARGET_HANDLE

Search Twitter for mentions:

orth run scrapecreators /v1/twitter/search -q query=SEARCH_TERM

Step 3: LinkedIn Activity (Scrape Creators)

Get company page data:

orth run scrapecreators /v1/linkedin/company -q url=https://linkedin.com/company/COMPANY

Step 4: Extract Insights (ScrapeGraph)

For deep analysis of a specific page found in Steps 1-3:

orth run scrapegraph /v1/smartscraper -d '{"website_url": "URL_FROM_RESULTS", "user_prompt": "Extract sentiment, key complaints, praise, and feature requests about the product"}'

Output Format

Monitoring: [what was searched]

Key findings:
- [finding 1 with source]
- [finding 2 with source]
- [finding 3 with source]

Sentiment: [positive/negative/mixed]

Action items:
- [what to do based on findings]

Monitoring Playbooks

Brand Monitoring

  1. Exa search: "BRAND_NAME reviews feedback"
  2. Twitter search: brand mentions
  3. Summarize sentiment + key themes

Competitor Watch

  1. Exa search: "COMPETITOR launch announcement funding"
  2. Twitter: competitor handle tweets
  3. Analyze what they're shipping and saying

Pain Signal Detection

  1. Exa search: ICP pain phrases from MEMORY.md
  2. Twitter search: problem-related keywords
  3. Identify potential outbound targets

Buyer Language Mining

  1. Exa search: "switched from X to Y" OR "looking for alternative to X"
  2. Extract exact phrases buyers use
  3. Feed into positioning-messaging and cold-email skills

Tips

  • Include year in Exa queries for fresh results (e.g., "2026")
  • Use Exa contents.text: true to get actual content, not just links
  • Scrape Creators for social, Exa for web — use both for full picture
  • Track consistently — set up periodic monitoring, not one-off searches

Related Skills

  • signal-scanner — automated buying signal detection (uses social-listening as data source)
  • competitor-research — structured competitive analysis with pricing/team
  • content-strategy — plan content based on listening findings
  • cold-email — write outreach based on pain signals discovered

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
