Finance News Skill

AI-powered market news briefings with configurable language output and automated delivery via WhatsApp/Telegram.

First-Time Setup

Run the interactive setup wizard:

finance-news setup

The wizard configures RSS feeds, markets (US/Europe/Japan/Asia), delivery channels (WhatsApp/Telegram), language (English/German), and cron schedule.

Configure individual sections:

finance-news setup --section feeds     # Just RSS feeds
finance-news setup --section delivery  # Just delivery channels
finance-news setup --section schedule  # Just cron schedule
finance-news setup --reset             # Reset to defaults

Verify setup completed correctly:

finance-news config                    # Show current config
finance-news briefing --morning        # Test a dry-run briefing

Quick Start

finance-news briefing --morning                                  # Morning briefing
finance-news briefing --evening --send --group "Market Briefing" # Evening + WhatsApp
finance-news market                                              # Market overview
finance-news portfolio                                           # Portfolio news
finance-news news AAPL                                           # Ticker-specific news

See COMMANDS.md for the full CLI reference including portfolio management, cron setup, and configuration details.

Cron Jobs

Scheduled morning/evening briefings run via openclaw cron — the add/verify commands (and the manual crontab fallback) live in COMMANDS.md → Cron Jobs. Quick check: openclaw cron list.

Integration

Combine with OpenBB for detailed quotes before news:

openbb-quote AAPL && finance-news news AAPL

Run briefings via Lobster for approval gates and resumability — see workflows/README.md for full documentation:

lobster "workflows.run --file workflows/briefing.yaml"

Troubleshooting

Issue	Fix
Briefing writer failing	Verify `KALLIOPE_SERVING_API_KEY` is set and the local Qwen route (`http://100.124.155.99:4000/v1`) is reachable; the DS4 route (`http://gx10r-head:8888/v1`) is the fallback
RSS feeds timing out	Check network; WSJ/Barron's may need subscription cookies; CNBC/Yahoo always work
WhatsApp delivery failing	Verify group exists and bot has access; run `openclaw doctor`
