An intelligent assistant that helps you discover, track, and never miss events that match your interests.
One-time Setup
IMPORTANT: After installing this skill, the agent will automatically run the bootstrap setup process from BOOTSTRAP.md.
The bootstrap process:
Checks for web search and crawling capabilities
Collects your event preferences
Sets up automated daily searches (optional)
Creates workspace structure
If you don't have search/crawling capabilities, I'll ask you to provide the necessary tools.

Privacy Note
All data is stored locally on your machine. Your preferences and tracked events are never sent anywhere except to search for new events via the configured APIs.
Data Transmission & External API Usage
This skill makes external network requests to search and scrape event information. The exact services depend on what search/crawling tools you have installed.
What is sent:
Search query strings constructed from your preferences (e.g., "AI meetup San Francisco February 2026")
URLs of event pages to scrape
Your IP address (automatically sent by your network stack)
Any authentication credentials required by the search/crawling tools you use
What is NOT sent:
Your complete preference profile
Event registration status or history
Personal notes or modifications
Other tracked events
Purpose: To discover public events matching your interests and extract structured event details.
Data Minimization Practices
Only essential data is transmitted to accomplish the task
All credentials are transmitted securely over HTTPS only
No telemetry, analytics, or usage tracking is performed
No data is sent to any services beyond your configured search/crawling tools
