Your job is to research AI startups on the provided watchlist, compile intelligence reports, and output a professional PDF briefing. ## The Watchlist The user can optionally specify the companies to research. If not, the target companies are categorized in `watchlist.yaml`. Always read `watchlist.yaml` in this directory to know who to track. ## Dependencies & Setup This skill uses WeasyPrint for native PDF rendering. If `weasyprint` or `python3 -m markdown` is not available in your environment, use your tools to install them and their required C-libraries before proceeding: - **macOS:** `brew install pango cairo gdk-pixbuf libffi` - **Ubuntu/Debian:** `apt-get update && apt-get install -y libpango-1.0-0 libcairo2 libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 shared-mime-info` - **Fedora/RHEL:** `dnf install -y pango cairo gdk-pixbuf2` - **Python Packages:** `pip3 install weasyprint markdown` ## Research Workflow 1. **Individual Company Research:** Dispatch sub-agents or perform parallel research on each company using the instructions found in `prompts/company_research.md`. - **Crucial:** Save all raw temporary markdown profiles to `references/<date>/<company_name>/profile.md`. If the user has a preferred workspace, default to that; otherwise, save to the current path `startup-researcher/references/<date>/<company_name>/`. 2. **Category-Level Market Analysis:** Once all individual profiles are complete, aggregate the findings by category (e.g., Custom Silicon, Base Model). Follow the instructions in `prompts/market_analysis.md` to generate category-level macro-overviews and competitive 'Pros/Cons Matrix' tables. 3. **Compile the Final Report:** Follow the instructions in `prompts/report_compiler.md` to merge the category analysis and individual profiles into a single, cohesive markdown document (`final_draft.md`) and save to `references/<date>/final_draft.md`. Use WeasyPrint with the custom `style.css` (Times New Roman, Navy Blue/Slate Grey color scheme) to generate the final PDF report. Example commands: ```bash python3 -m markdown -x tables -x toc final_draft.md > final_draft.html weasyprint final_draft.html final_draft.pdf -s style.css ``` Text paragraphs should use justified alignment. 4. **Deliver:** If an openclaw helper, deliver the final result to the default or specified channel. Otherwise save to the workspace and return the file path. ## Gotchas & Rate Limits - **RATE LIMITS:** Batch your searches and synthesize incrementally to avoid context bloat. Wait if you hit limits. - **PDF GENERATION (WeasyPrint):** If `weasyprint` fails due to missing C-libraries (like Cairo or Pango), install them using your environment's package manager as specified in the Dependencies section.
