hacker-news

hacker-news is a Penetration testing & red team skill for AI agents, published by unifapi-agent in the agents repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates hacker-news C (71/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

When a workflow needs public Hacker News data through UnifAPI — the top/new/best/ask/show/jobs story feeds, item metadata, comment trees, or user karma. Also use on "did our launch land on HN," "scan Show HN for," "read this HN thread," "Hacker News sentiment," or when another skill (launch monitor, social listening) needs the deterministic HN read path. No keyword search — scan the feeds. Connect via the `unifapi` skill first. Read-only research, never posts.
