| Research sweeps | GDELT, regulations.gov, and Federal Register fetching for market research |
| Brand monitoring | Bluesky cascade and YouTube comment fetching for channel monitoring |
| Environmental data | Open-Meteo, NASA FIRMS, EPA, and USGS skills for data-driven reporting |
Limitations / Verification¶
- Multi-skill suite; individual security-audit pages not fetched this sweep
- Long tail is thin (many skills under 100 installs); the email and GDELT skills carry the suite
- Some sources require their own API keys or rate-limit handling
