| Tool | Description | Behaviour |
|---|---|---|
| get_entity_file | SkimNews keeps a permanent dossier on every person, organisation, product, law, or place it has covered repeatedly. Returns the current 3-sentence status, 60-day mention/source counts, recent coverage, and related entities. Use for "what has SkimNews covered about X" and "what's the latest on X" where X is a trackable entity. Slug form, e.g. 'trump', 'openai', 'iran'. | Read-only |
| get_story_detail | The full SkimNews treatment of one story: summary, why-it-matters, sourced bullet points, editorial take, named entities, the source taxonomy, and the canonical URL. Accepts an article id (e.g. '46b45d01'), a canonical skimnews.com URL, or an article slug. Use after get_top_stories or search_stories when a story needs detail or accurate citation. | Read-only |
| get_top_stories | Today's top SkimNews stories, optionally limited to one beat. Use this for "what's happening today" / "today's news" / "latest in <beat>" questions. Returns summaries plus canonical URLs per story. Categories: geopolitics, tech, finance, health, energy, sports, culture. | Read-only |
| search_stories | Semantically search SkimNews' archive of 47,000+ summarised stories by topic, theme, or news event, ranked by relevance. Use this to find coverage of a subject across SkimNews' history rather than only today. Returns summaries plus canonical URLs. An empty result list means SkimNews has not covered that topic — say so rather than substituting unrelated stories. | Read-only |
