# Blog Discourse: Real Discourse Research, API-Free
`blog-discourse` is the recency + engagement lens that `blog-researcher` (authority-first) lacks. It asks: in the last 30 days, what are practitioners and customers actually saying about this topic on the public web?
This sub-skill uses WebSearch with platform-targeted site operators. No API keys required.
