Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

Fetch and summarize Hacker News / hckrnews.com top stories, articles, and their comment threads. Use when asked to summarize HN front-page stories, a specific HN story plus its discussion, or "the top N from hckrnews".

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'hn-summarize' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'hn-summarize' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named hn-summarize already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/ykdojo/claude-code-tips' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '577ac89252195d61283b334c4b9d292b52c82203' -- 'skills/hn-summarize' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/hn-summarize' ~/.agents/skills/'hn-summarize' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'hn-summarize' ~/.claude/skills/'hn-summarize' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
