0upvotes

Research what people are actually saying about a topic in the last 30 days across Reddit, X / Twitter, YouTube, Hacker News, dev.to, Medium, and other public discourse platforms. API-free; uses WebSearch with platform-targeted site operators plus recency filters. Produces DISCOURSE.md (a structured brief) and JSON output the writer can consume. Complements blog-researcher (which focuses on authority sources) with a recency-and-engagement lens. Not for verifying statistics (blog-factcheck) or gathering authority sources. Use when user says "blog discourse", "discourse research", "what are people saying about", "research what people are saying", "voice of customer", "social listening", "30-day research", "trend research", "what's the discussion on", "real-time research", "practitioner discourse", "/blog discourse".

# Blog Discourse: Real Discourse Research, API-Free

Bundled paths below use host Markdown substitution of `${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}`;
it is not an exported shell variable. Resolve them before execution, quote
paths, and refuse nonabsolute overrides. Pass `blog_reference_root` resolved
from `${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../blog/references`, `blog_template_root` from
`${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../blog/templates`, and needed sibling roots to agents.
Read the main reference `orchestration-details.md` before loading project
context; pass only its helper-fenced output to downstream agents.

Produces DISCOURSE.md: a structured brief of what practitioners said about <topic> on the public web in the last 30 days. It is the recency + engagement lens that `blog-researcher` (authority-first) lacks, asking what practitioners and customers are actually saying about this topic right now.

Adapted from the methodology of `last30days-skill` (Matt Van Horn, MIT, https://github.com/mvanhorn/last30days-skill). The upstream uses platform APIs; this sub-skill uses WebSearch with platform-targeted site operators. No API keys required.
