| description | Show news captures that have arrived since your last check. |
Check the Syndly project for content captures that have arrived since you last looked, and surface the new ones so the user can pick one to draft from.
On first run in a session, ensure .syndly/state/ exists (create it if not). Read or initialise .syndly/state/last-captures-check.txt with the current ISO timestamp — this is the cursor you advance each time the skill runs.
List recent captures. Call the read-only list_captures MCP tool, or read the equivalent syndly://<slug>/sources/<source_id>/captures resource for each known source — whichever is cheaper. Request the maximum default window so you have a full picture.
Filter to "since last check." Discard anything with a published_at / captured_at timestamp older than the value in .syndly/state/last-captures-check.txt. If the file is missing, treat the run as a first-time check and show everything from the last 7 days.
Surface the new ones. Present a compact table to the user:
| Title | Source | Link | Captured at |
|---|
Order by captured_at descending (most recent first).
Offer follow-ups. After showing the table, offer:
/syndly-draft with the chosen capture.Always update the cursor. At the end of a successful run (whether or not the user drafted anything), overwrite .syndly/state/last-captures-check.txt with the current ISO timestamp. This is the completion signal the skill relies on — never skip it.
schedule_post, publish_now, add_to_queue, etc.) — drafting and queueing are handled by /syndly-draft.Read-only reference for the Syndly MCP API. Use when an agent hits an MCP error or wants to know what tools are available and how to call them.
Draft a post from a capture using your brand voice profile and the target platform voice.
First-run onboarding. Scaffold ./.syndly/ at the project root and write your brand voice profile plus per-platform tones.
List the current post queue and its status.
List, create, edit, and remove content sources that Syndly uses to discover news captures.
