gate-news-communityscan
General Rules
⚠️ STOP — You MUST read and strictly follow the shared runtime rules before proceeding.
Do NOT select or call any tool until all rules are read. These rules have the highest priority.
→ Read
gate-runtime-rules.md
→ Also read
info-news-runtime-rules.md for
gate-info /
gate-news-specific rules (tool degradation, report standards, security, routing degradation, per-skill version checks when
is present, and legacy wrapper routing).
- Only call MCP tools explicitly listed in this skill. Tools not documented here must NOT be called, even if they
exist in the MCP server.
- Legacy / routing mode: when Step 0 emits , use only the MCP tools listed in this file. When Step 0 emits , do not call those MCP tools; delegate to the mapped primary skill per Step 0.
Community Sentiment Scan Skill (X/Twitter focused). Parallel calls fetch X/Twitter discussion analysis and quantitative social sentiment; LLM aggregates into a community insights report.
Trigger Scenarios: Community opinions, Twitter/X discussions, KOL views, social sentiment, etc.
Per-skill updates: This directory includes
and may include
.
ClawHub packages uploaded to the marketplace often omit
(upload-page restriction);
GitHub / Bitbucket source trees keep both. Policy:
info-news-runtime-rules.md §1. The
Trigger update steps below apply in addition to
gate-runtime-rules.md; when scripts are present, use this flow for version checks before execution.
Update check — user visibility: Technical failures during version check (missing script, sandbox, network, non-zero exit, no parseable
line) must
not be explained to the user; continue with Execution per
info-news-runtime-rules.md. Only
successful /
outcomes may be summarized (including
/ strict
exit 3, which is still a
success path that requires user confirmation before
).
Do not auto-download
from the network.
Static reference if
is missing: canonical scripts live in
gate/gate-skills under
(same
as frontmatter).
Step 0 — Wrapper routing probe
This legacy skill is a compatibility alias for the primary CLI skill
.
Before Trigger update, MCP tool selection, or any legacy Execution Workflow,
run a deterministic shell probe:
bash
PRIMARY_SKILL="gate-news-intel"
HAS_PRIMARY=0
for root in \
"$HOME/.cursor/skills" \
"$HOME/.codex/skills" \
"$HOME/.openclaw/skills" \
"$HOME/.agents/skills" \
"$HOME/.gemini/antigravity/skills"
do
if [ -f "$root/$PRIMARY_SKILL/SKILL.md" ]; then
HAS_PRIMARY=1
break
fi
done
if command -v gate-cli >/dev/null 2>&1 && [ "$HAS_PRIMARY" = "1" ]; then
echo "__ROUTE_CLI__"
else
echo "__FALLBACK__"
fi
Interpretation:
- → stop here. Do not run Trigger update or the legacy MCP
sections below. Follow
https://github.com/gate/gate-skills/blob/master/skills/gate-news-intel/SKILL.md
and its playbook contract. Carry over the minimum context: and
optional .
- → continue with Trigger update and the legacy MCP workflow in
this file.
Trigger update (with Execution)
Default (PD / blocking): On each trigger, run
first
without GATE_SKILL_UPDATE_MODE=auto
. The script
only compares local vs remote; if
, it
does not overwrite files.
STOP — ask the user whether to update
before any
,
, or skill Execution. In sandboxes (e.g. Cursor), use
full / all permissions when later running
. This matches
blocking update confirmation in the independent-script TEST_REPORT: blocking is enforced by these SKILL instructions plus
check-only behavior (not by silent auto-apply).
Strict check (Agent / IDE — recommended on ): Use
GATE_SKILL_CHECK_STRICT=1
. When
,
exits 3 and prints
— it stops
only that shell step.
Hard rule: after you ask the user,
end this assistant turn; do
not call
,
, or MCP in the
same message.
applies without a prior user step —
do not use
in chat for the blocking flow; use
→ user confirms → .
Step 1 — Check
Install root: /
read
. Typical
:
$HOME/.cursor/skills/<name>/
,
$HOME/.codex/skills/<name>/
,
$HOME/.openclaw/skills/<name>/
,
$HOME/.agents/skills/<name>/
,
$HOME/.gemini/antigravity/skills/<name>/
. Single-arg: the script resolves
in that order when
exists; otherwise
is
. Workspace-only trees need two-arg
/
with explicit
.
Agent selection rules (run
at most one of the fenced examples below; choose by OS and files under
):
- macOS / Linux / WSL / Git Bash: If exists → use only the Bash example.
- Windows (native PowerShell): If exists → use only the PowerShell example.
- Windows without (typical ClawHub install): If only exists → try WSL or Git Bash () using the same command shape as the Bash example. If bash is unavailable or execution fails → skip Step 1 silently (no script stderr or “version check failed” message to the user); proceed to Execution.
- Neither script exists: Skip Step 1 silently; proceed to Execution. Do not invent or run / .
Bash (blocking — no auto; example Cursor):
bash
GATE_SKILL_CHECK_STRICT=1 bash "$HOME/.cursor/skills/gate-news-communityscan/scripts/update-skill.sh" check "gate-news-communityscan"
PowerShell:
powershell
$env:GATE_SKILL_CHECK_STRICT = '1'
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "$env:USERPROFILE\.cursor\skills\gate-news-communityscan\scripts\update-skill.ps1" check "gate-news-communityscan"
Result semantics: = no action.
= remote newer;
with blocking flow, do not apply until the user agrees.
= could not compare — proceed with current version per
info-news-runtime-rules.md;
do not surface technical check failure details to the user.
Agent parse (stdout): GATE_SKILL_UPDATE_AGENT_ACTION=…
.
BLOCK_UNTIL_USER_CONFIRMS_UPDATE
→ Step 2 before Execution.
→ no block from the check script.
Step 2 — Confirm or Reject (blocking)
Runtime: Use the
same shell family for Step 2 as for Step 1 (Bash vs PowerShell). If Step 1 was
skipped, do
not run
or
.
-
STOP — do NOT proceed to Execution yet.
-
Inform the user (e.g. newer version available; summarize if helpful).
-
Wait for the user’s reply — blocking step.
Hard rule (Cursor / Agent): When
reports
, or
BLOCK_UNTIL_USER_CONFIRMS_UPDATE
, or strict
,
end this turn after asking.
Only in the
user’s next message run
(if they agree) or
(if they decline). Do
not chain
in the same turn as
for this flow.
- User agrees → run with from strict stdout when required, then Execution.
- User declines → , then Execution on the current install.
Two-step gate (strict ): /
(without
GATE_SKILL_UPDATE_MODE=auto
)
fail until
matches
. User decline →
.
bash
GATE_SKILL_CONFIRM_TOKEN="<paste from check stdout>" bash "$HOME/.cursor/skills/gate-news-communityscan/scripts/update-skill.sh" apply "gate-news-communityscan"
bash
bash "$HOME/.cursor/skills/gate-news-communityscan/scripts/update-skill.sh" revoke-pending "gate-news-communityscan"
powershell
$env:GATE_SKILL_CONFIRM_TOKEN = '<paste from check stdout>'
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "$env:USERPROFILE\.cursor\skills\gate-news-communityscan\scripts\update-skill.ps1" apply "gate-news-communityscan"
powershell
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "$env:USERPROFILE\.cursor\skills\gate-news-communityscan\scripts\update-skill.ps1" revoke-pending "gate-news-communityscan"
If Step 1 was not strict (no pending token):
without
is allowed.
If or : no update step; proceed to Execution.
Optional — GATE_SKILL_UPDATE_MODE=auto
For
CI / unattended automation only: setting
GATE_SKILL_UPDATE_MODE=auto
on
makes the script
apply immediately when the remote is newer —
no user confirmation and
incompatible with
blocking update confirmation tests. Do
not use
on
when reproducing the blocking PD flow.
Parameters
- name: Frontmatter above; must match on gate-skills.
- Invoke: Use
$SKILL_ROOT/scripts/update-skill.sh
(or ) where is this skill — e.g. , , ~/.openclaw/skills/<name>
, , ~/.gemini/antigravity/skills/<name>
; do not treat (or any host root without ) as the install. With one arg, the script resolves in that order before falling back to the script’s directory; workspace installs need explicit . Two-arg / / : canonical order is absolute (skill root) first, then ; / auto-swap when only one normalized path contains (e.g. agent passes then path).
- ClawHub vs full tree: Installs without may copy it from gate/gate-skills under (manual only; agents must not auto-download).
Do not dump raw script logs into the user-facing reply except when debugging. On
exit 3 (strict), do not run Execution until Step 2 is resolved. On
or
failure, still run Execution when appropriate per runtime rules.
Known Limitations
- UGC platforms: Reddit, Discord, and Telegram depend on availability. Until that API is online, label reports as X/Twitter-only.
- Historical sentiment trend may degrade to a single-point snapshot depending on upstream API coverage.

Step 0: Multi-Dimension Intent Check
- Community/social sentiment → this Skill.
- Coin fundamentals + technicals + macro together → (if available).
Step 1: Intent Recognition & Parameter Extraction
- (optional)
- (optional): e.g., ETF, regulation, Layer 2
- : constructed from coin + topic for X search; if neither, general market social scan
Step 2: Call MCP Tools in Parallel

Safety Rules
- No fabricated opinions: Only report what data supports; do not invent KOL quotes.
- Source attribution: Attribute generically to KOL/community unless public figure is clearly named in data.
- Neutral presentation: Show bullish and bearish views.
- Sentiment ≠ prediction: State limitations clearly.
- Platform transparency: Label X/Twitter-only coverage.
- Misinformation: Prefer "unverified claims circulating" over stating rumors as fact.
- Age & eligibility: Intended for users aged 18 or above with full civil capacity in their jurisdiction.
- Data flow: The host agent processes user prompts; this skill directs read-only Gate-News MCP tools listed above. The LLM synthesizes from tool results. This skill does not invoke additional third-party data services.
