From the author
When you want to monitor known sources on a schedule and feed the good stuff into your second brain. Configure sources once (YouTube, RSS/newsletters, subreddits, Hacker News, Bluesky, Mastodon, X, LinkedIn, keyword searches); each run fetches only what's new, scores it against your stated focus, writes one digest to the vault, and auto-captures high-signal items into raw/. Everything else waits in the digest until you promote it. Modes — run, digest, promote, add / sources / pause, doctor, schedule (daily launchd or systemd job). Triggers on "/radar," "run my radar," "check my sources," "what's new from my sources," "add a source," "monitor this channel," "watch this subreddit," "track this account," "daily digest," "promote item 4," "radar doctor." Complements second-brain (radar fills raw/, second-brain compiles it) and deep-research (standing surveillance vs a one-off dive).

Closest to this one by what they do and when they are used.
- deep-researchjezweb/claude-skillsDeep research and discovery before building something new. Explores local projects for reusable code, researches competitors, reads forums and reviews, analyses plugin ecosystems, investigates technical options, and produces a comprehensive research brief. Three depths: focused (30 min), wide (1-2 hours), deep (3-6 hours). Triggers: 'research this', 'discovery', 'explore the space', 'what should I build', 'competitive analysis', 'before I start building', 'research before coding'. Not for cited fact-checking research reports (a separate harness does those); this is pre-build product discovery.Science★ 1.1K
- second-brain-ingestundefined-ui/second-brain-osTurn raw source material in a second-brain vault into linked wiki pages: read the source, split it into concepts and entities, write or update pages, connect them to existing pages, and record the run in the log. Use this skill whenever the user drops a file into raw/, pastes an article, transcript or PDF and asks to add it to the vault, says "ingest this", "add this to my second brain", "process raw", or asks to catch up on unprocessed sources, even if they do not name the ingest command. Do NOT use for answering questions from an existing vault, for linting or repairing pages, or for editing notes the user wrote by hand.Documents★ 1.1K
- second-brain-reviewundefined-ui/second-brain-osProduce a periodic review of a second-brain vault: what was added, which topics are growing, what contradicts what, which questions are still open, and what is worth reading next. Use this skill whenever the user asks for a weekly or monthly review, asks what changed in their vault, what they have been learning about lately, or what they should look at next, and when a scheduled review task fires. Do NOT use for structural linting, for ingesting sources, or for answering a specific factual question.Engineering★ 1.1K
- renewal-radaranthropics/knowledge-work-pluginsUpcoming renewals with timing, risk, and uplift potential - and the renewal opportunity records to keep them honest. Use when the user asks "what renewals are coming up", "renewal radar", "is [account] going to renew", "prep the [account] renewal", or "which renewals are at risk".OfficialOther★ 31.9K
- second-braincoreyhaines31/makerskillsWhen you want to capture into, compile, query, lint, or connect your personal Second Brain. Wraps the Karpathy LLM Wiki schema (Obsidian or any markdown vault) — raw/ (unprocessed sources), wiki/ (AI-compiled interlinked topic pages), outputs/ (generated artifacts). Vault defaults to ${SECOND_BRAIN_VAULT:-$HOME/Documents/SecondBrain}/. Six modes — capture (drop something into raw/), compile (process unprocessed raw files into wiki pages, update INDEX.md), query (answer a question from the wiki, save to outputs/), lint (orphans / contradictions / stale / unprocessed raw / topic gaps), connect (suggest new wikilinks between pages), search (quick lookup). Triggers on "/second-brain," "/sb," "capture this," "save this to my brain," "compile the wiki," "process raw notes," "query my wiki," "ask my brain," "lint the wiki," "find connections," "search my notes." Complements deep-research (external corpus) — this is the internal corpus. Team knowledge goes to company-brain, not here.Science★ 869
- second-brain-transcriptundefined-ui/second-brain-osClean a raw transcript before ingestion: punctuate, paragraph, label speakers, fix mistranscribed technical terms, and split long recordings by topic. Use this skill when the user drops an auto-generated transcript, subtitle file, podcast or lecture transcript, meeting recording text, or asks to process a video or audio source. Do NOT use for text that is already prose, for summarising a transcript, or for the ingestion itself.Media★ 1.1K
