decisions-agent-reach

name	decisions-agent-reach
description	Use with DecisionsAI when a ticket or workflow needs internet research — social posts, articles, video subtitles, GitHub, RSS, or competitor scans. Routes through Agent Reach upstream tools; run agent-reach doctor first.

Decisions + Agent Reach

I am fetching external sources so the user can decide or ship with evidence — not inventing citations.

Agent Reach installs and routes upstream CLIs. Decisions adds workflow discipline: scope, evidence packets, and harness reporting.

When to invoke

• Ticket asks to research, compare competitors, read tweets/Reddit threads, summarize a YouTube/Bilibili video
• User pastes a URL from Twitter, GitHub, a blog, or RSS
• Content workflows (content-engine, article-writing) need primary sources
• Not for: writing the final doc (use content skills), UI mockups (use decisions-ui-ideation), or posting/commenting on social platforms

Workflow

1. Run agent-reach doctor --json — use each platform's active_backend.
2. Fetch in parallel when useful (Exa + Twitter + Reddit + web via Jina).
3. Save raw extracts under /tmp/ or cite URLs — never write fetch artifacts into the project repo unless the ticket asks for committed research notes.
4. In the Decisions result packet include:
   • Sources: bullet list with URLs
   • Method: platform + backend used
   • Summary: what matters for the ticket decision

Install / repair

If agent-reach is missing:

Install Agent Reach: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Panniantong/agent-reach/main/docs/install.md

Or from Decisions reference clone (after bin/setup.py):

pip install -e ../reference/agent-reach
agent-reach install --env=auto

Safe mode on shared servers: agent-reach install --env=auto --safe

Skill pairing

Task	Also use

Article from research	content-engine, article-writing
Verify a shipped page	browser-qa, decisions-playwright
Minimal implementation	ponytail

Full routing table

Read the projected agent-reach skill (references/*.md) — it is the source of truth for per-platform commands and retry chains.
