Use when the user asks for news, wants a briefing, says "/news-briefing", or asks to aggregate recent information on any topic. Triggers on requests like "what's happening with AI", "get me news on crypto", "news briefing on climate".
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# News Briefing
<!-- skillctx:begin -->
## Setup
Locate this skill's directory (the folder containing this SKILL.md), then run the
resolver script from there:
```bash
python <skill-dir>/scripts/skillctx-resolve.py resolve p-news-briefing
```
The resolver outputs each binding as `key: value` (one per line). Substitute each `{binding_key}` placeholder below with the resolved value.
If any values are missing or the user requests changes, use:
```bash
python <skill-dir>/scripts/skillctx-resolve.py set p-news-briefing <key> <value>
```
<!-- skillctx:end -->
Aggregate recent news on any topic(s) into structured markdown files.
## Invocation

- `/news-briefing ai --depth quick` -- with explicit depth
- Conversational: "get me news on AI and crypto"
## Depth
- **deep** (default): News + market/people reactions, sourced links, quotes, ~5 min read
- **quick**: Headlines + brief context, 5-10 bullets with links, ~2 min read
## Flow
1. **Parse input**: Extract topic(s) and depth. Default depth is `deep`.

How to install
mdr add jackchuka/skills/p-news-briefing@sha256:dde1b661af098b61The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260604.0da3398, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
