Filters high-signal from noise using a 7/10 quality bar. Each surfaced item includes a "why this matters for you" note. Use when you want your agent to stay on top of fast-moving AI, crypto, content creation, or technical domains without you doing manual research. author: Kenneth Kim (KK_HoldCo) version: 1.0.0 --- # Tech Scout — Daily Intelligence Digest **Bottom line:** Your agent runs this automatically each morning before your first session. You get a ranked list of 3-5 actionable items from the internet. No noise, no generic newsletters — only things with a clear reason they matter to your specific projects. --- ## When to Invoke **Automated:** Run at 06:00-07:00 local time daily, before your morning briefing session. **Manual triggers:** - "What's new in [domain] this week?" - "Did anything relevant drop overnight?" - "Tech scout update" - "What should I know before today's session?" - Any time you want a signal sweep without doing the research yourself --- ## Setup — Define Your Project Domains Before running Tech Scout for the first time, configure your keyword targets by project area. Example domains: ### AI & Automation - New model releases, API price drops, free tier changes - `new AI model` `AI API update` `open source LLM` `AI tool comparison [year]` - `agent framework` `Claude update` `GPT update` `Gemini update` ### Crypto & Trading - New trading frameworks, Hyperliquid updates, perpetuals strategies - `crypto trading bot` `algorithmic trading` `funding rate strategy` - `crypto paper trading` `HFT bot open source` `perpetual futures strategy` ### Content Creation & YouTube - Video generation tools, voiceover tech, automation workflows - `AI video generation` `faceless YouTube automation` `text to video [year]` - `AI narration` `programmatic video` `YouTube automation tool` ### Your Active Projects - Add any domain-specific keywords for your current focus areas --- ## Data Sources ### 1. X (Twitter) ``` Search last 24 hours for each keyword cluster Filter: min 50 likes OR min 20 retweets (quality signal) Max 5 results per keyword cluster ``` ### 2. YouTube ``` Search for videos uploaded in last 48 hours per keyword cluster Filter: min 500 views within 48h (early traction signal) Max 3 results per keyword cluster ``` ### 3. Reddit ``` Subreddits relevant to your domains (e.g., r/MachineLearning, r/algotrading, r/YoutubeAutomation) Filter: upvotes > 100, posted in last 24 hours ``` ### 4. GitHub ``` New repos and trending topics Filter: created in last 7 days, stars > 50 Searches: tool names, framework names, strategy names from your keyword list ``` ### 5. Web Search (via real-time LLM) ``` "What new [domain] tools or updates were announced in the last 48 hours?" "Any major [domain] price changes or new free tiers announced recently?" Catch-all for items the structured searches miss ``` --- ## Relevance Scoring Each item gets scored 1-10: | Score | Meaning | Action | |---|---|---| | 8-10 | Direct match to an active project + actionable today | ✅ Include — flag HIGH | | 7 | Clearly relevant, worth seeing | ✅ Include — flag MEDIUM | | 1-6 | Too generic, wrong timing, or low signal | ❌ Skip | **Scoring factors:** - Exact keyword match on active project = +3 - Mentions cost savings or free alternative to paid tool = +2 - Has code / repo / tutorial = +2 (immediately actionable) - High engagement (viral early signal) = +1 - Duplicate of something surfaced in last 7 days = -5 (dedup) - Generic entertainment / low-signal social = hard reject **Quality bar:** Every surfaced item must include a one-line "Why this matters for you" note. If you can't write that note, the item scores below 7 and gets rejected. --- ## Deduplication Maintain `state/tech_scout_seen_urls.txt` — append every surfaced URL. Before including any item, check against this file. Never surface the same URL twice within 7 days. --- ## Output Format File: `state/tech_scout_digest_YYYY-MM-DD.md` ```markdown # Tech Scout Digest — [DATE] _Sources scanned: X + YouTube + Reddit + GitHub + Web Search_ _Items found: [N] | After 7/10 filter: [M] | Surfacing: [K]_ --- ## 🔴 HIGH — Act on This ### [Item Title] **Source:** Reddit r/[subreddit] | **Score:** 9/10 | **Domain:** [project area] **Why relevant:** [specific reason] **Why this matters for you:** [one-line practical impact] **Link:** [url] **Suggested action:** [concrete next step — "test this tonight", "read section 3", "check if this replaces [current tool]"] --- ## 🟡 MEDIUM — Good to Know ### [Item Title] **Source:** YouTube | **Score:** 7/10 | **Domain:** [project area] **Why relevant:** [specific reason] **Link:** [url] **Suggested action:** [concrete next step] --- ## ⚪ FYI — No Action Needed - [Item]: [one-line summary] ([link]) - [Item]: [one-line summary] ([link]) ``` --- ## Morning Briefing Integration If you run a morning briefing, integrate Tech Scout as follows: 1. Read `state/tech_scout_digest_YYYY-MM-DD.md` 2. Extract the top 1-3 HIGH items 3. Include a "🔬 Tech Scout" section in your morning briefing output 4. If no HIGH items: include the top MEDIUM item 5. Always link to the full digest --- ## Error Handling - X API rate-limited → skip X, continue with other sources, note in digest header - Reddit quota exceeded → fall back to web search for Reddit content - GitHub API returns 403 → skip GitHub for today, note in header - **Always write the output file even if partial** — note which sources failed --- ## Implementation Notes **APIs typically needed:** - X (Twitter) Bearer Token - Google API key (for YouTube search) - Reddit scraper (Apify or direct Reddit API) - GitHub REST API (public search, no key needed) - Real-time web search LLM (Grok, Perplexity, or similar) **Script entry point:** `tech_scout.py --date today [--dry-run]` **Schedule:** Daily at 06:00-07:00 before morning session **Output path:** `state/tech_scout_digest_YYYY-MM-DD.md`
