name hackernews-frontpage description Scrape the Hacker News front page (titles, points, comment counts). host news.ycombinator.com trusted true source human version 1.0.0 args [] triggers ["scrape hacker news frontpage","scrape hn frontpage","get hn top stories","latest hacker news stories"] Hacker News front-page scraper Scrapes the Hacker News ( news.ycombinator.com ) front page and returns the top 30 stories as JSON. Each story has its rank, title, link URL, point count, and comment count. Usage $ $B skill run hackernews-frontpage { "stories": [ { "rank": 1, "title": "...", "url": "...", "points": 412, "comments": 87 }, ... ], "count": 30 } How it works Navigates to https://news.ycombinator.com via the daemon. Reads the page HTML. Parses each story row (HN's stable tr.athing structure) into a typed Story record. Emits a single JSON document on stdout. Why this is the reference skill hackernews-frontpage is the smallest interesting browser-skill: no auth, stable HTML, deterministic output, file-fixture-friendly. Every Phase 1 component (SDK, scoped tokens, three-tier lookup, spawn lifecycle) is exercised by $B skill run hackernews-frontpage and the bundled script.test.ts . When the HN HTML rotates and our selectors break, the test fails against the captured fixture before users notice. That's the point.
