Skill0 starsChanged 32 days agoMITView on GitHub
Generate a Japanese digest for yesterday's Hacker News stories scoring over 100 points, matching the `main.py` workflow without `google-generativeai` or `GEMINI_API_KEY`. Use this skill when users ask for a daily HN digest, want top Hacker News posts translated and summarized in Japanese, or want the Gemini-based workflow replaced with a skill.

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Hacker News digest in Japanese
Use this skill to reproduce the current main.py behavior in a reusable way, but rely on the model's own language abilities instead of Gemini.
Default scope
Unless the user explicitly asks for something else, keep the behavior fixed to match main.py:
- Time window: yesterday in UTC, from
00:00:00to the next00:00:00 - Source:
https://hn.algolia.com/api/v1/search_by_date - Filters:
tags=story,points>100 - Page size:
hitsPerPage=100 - Output: a Markdown table in Japanese
Do not ask for GEMINI_API_KEY. Do not use google-generativeai.
Workflow
- Read
scripts/fetch_hn_stories.pyto confirm the exact fetch logic. - Prefer running
uv run python skills/hacker-news-digest-ja/scripts/fetch_hn_stories.pyfrom the repository root. - If
uvis unavailable, fall back topython3 skills/hacker-news-digest-ja/scripts/fetch_hn_stories.py. - If shell execution cannot reach the network, reproduce the script's exact URL and filters with the available web-fetching tool instead of changing the behavior.
- Use the fetched stories as the source of truth. Preserve the order returned by the API.
- For each story:
- Keep
original_titleexactly as provided. - Write a natural Japanese translation for
japanese_title. - Write a one-sentence Japanese summary for
summary.
- Keep
- Produce the final answer as a Markdown table and nothing else unless the user asks for extra commentary.
Output format
Use this exact header:
| タイトル (原文) | タイトル (日本語訳) | 概要 |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |Then output one row per story in this shape:
| [Original title](url) | 日本語訳 | 1 文の要約 |Formatting rules:
- Escape any literal
|inside cell text as|. - If a story URL is missing, use
#as the link target. - Keep the original title in the link text exactly as fetched.
- Keep the summary to one Japanese sentence.
- Do not prepend or append prose around the table unless the user explicitly asks for commentary.
Quality bar
- Prefer concise, natural Japanese over word-for-word translation.
- Make summaries informative enough that the user can skim the table and understand why the post mattered.
- Do not invent details that are not supported by the title or obvious public context.
- If the fetch step fails, report the error clearly instead of fabricating a digest.
Typical trigger examples
- "昨日の Hacker News の人気記事を日本語で一覧にして"
- "
main.pyを Gemini なしで使える skill にしたい" - "HN の 100 点超え記事を訳して 1 行ずつ要約して"
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

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
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.
