description	Router skill for Anthropic's news + research feeds — auto-refreshed daily from anthropic.com/news and anthropic.com/research. Use when the user asks about TIME-SENSITIVE Anthropic content: model launches ("did Claude X just release?"), product announcements, partnership news, region launches, new research papers, recent policy positions, or "what's new from Anthropic?" / "what did Anthropic just announce?" / "any recent research on X?" Skip: deep technical reference (use the other 7 skills — claude-code, anthropic-api, etc.); historical news older than ~30 items (link out to anthropic.com instead); detailed paper content (the digest carries title + summary + URL — Claude WebFetches the paper for depth on demand).

Anthropic Pulse — Router

Field	Value
News index	anthropic.com/news
Research index	anthropic.com/research
Refresh cadence	daily (matrix workflow)
Content model	digest only — title + date + URL + 1-2 sentence summary. Click through for full content.

This skill is auto-updated daily. The pipeline scrapes the two index pages, extracts the most recent ~20 items each, and rewrites the surface files below. Unlike the other 7 skills, this one has no docs-snapshot (the upstream is HTML, not markdown), no LLM agents (deterministic render), and no token cost per run.

Dispatch table

Surface file	Read when the user asks about…
SKILL-news.md	Recent product launches, partnerships, region openings, model releases, policy updates, business announcements, "did X just launch?", "what did Anthropic announce recently?"
SKILL-research.md	Recent research papers, alignment research, evaluations, benchmarks, "what's Anthropic's research on X?", interpretability work, the Anthropic Institute / Anthropic Economic Index

When unsure which file to read

1. Word "research" / "paper" / "benchmark" / "evaluation" / "alignment" / "interpretability" → SKILL-research.md
2. Words "announce" / "launch" / "release" / "partnership" / "available" / a model name → SKILL-news.md
3. Generic "what's new" → read both

What this skill ISN'T

• Not a deep reference. Each digest entry is just title + date + URL + summary. For the body of a news post or a paper, WebFetch the linked URL — that's the design.
• Not historical archive. Only the latest ~20 items per feed. Older items live at anthropic.com; the freshness budget is "what changed recently."
• Not Anthropic-internal docs. This is the public-facing news + research feed. For product docs use the other 7 skills.
