# HN Digest Skill Curate Hacker News stories into structured org-mode files with translations. ## Workflow ``` HN API (JSON) → Claude (curate) → .org file → HTML thread ↑ ↓ └──────── reversible ──────────┘ ``` ## Quick Start ### Curate new digest ```bash # 1. Fetch stories (workflow does this) # 2. Claude reads /tmp/hn/stories.json, writes digest # 3. Convert to org. In the workflow, DIGEST_DATE and DIGEST_PATH are set # and override the JSON date and the path argument (see json2org.py). python3 scripts/json2org.py /tmp/digest.json digests/2025/12/15-1100.org # 4. Build the site (all editions; only changed files are written) python3 scripts/org2html.py digests/*/*/*.org ``` ### Validate round-trip ```bash python3 scripts/org2json.py digests/2025/12/15-1100.org /tmp/check.json # Should match original ``` ## Org Format ```org #+TITLE: HN Digest 2025-12-15 11:00 UTC #+DATE: 2025-12-15T11:00:00Z * Vibe Roomba dies, Arduino goes corporate... * Stories ** Robot vacuum Roomba maker files for bankruptcy :robotics:hardware: :PROPERTIES: :ID: 46268854 :URL: https://news.bloomberglaw.com/... :HN_URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46268854 :POINTS: 191 :COMMENTS: 182 :END: *** TLDR iRobot filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy... *** Take Roborock ate their lunch... *** Comments **** simonjgreen This is the cost of complacency. *** i18n :i18n: **** zh ***** TLDR
