What it does
Discourse is an agent skill from athola/claude-night-market. Scans HN, Lobsters, Reddit, and tech blogs for community experience reports. Use when gathering practitioner opinions on a technology or approach.
Its SKILL.md is about 420 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Backend & APIs. It works with Reddit and Algolia. The repository describes itself as: 23 Claude Code plugins: TDD enforcement hooks, git/PR workflows, spec-driven development, code review, project lifecycle, fix-from-error, maintenance automation, context… The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Gathering practitioner opinions on a technology
Example prompts
- “Use the discourse skill to scan HN, Lobsters, Reddit, and tech blogs for community experience reports”
- “/discourse”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Build search URLs/queries per channel using
- Execute via WebFetch (APIs) or WebSearch (fallback)
- Parse responses into Finding objects
- Merge across sources with source attribution
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9f3eb00. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Discourse loads about 420 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 39 tokens; SKILL.md has 170 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

When NOT To Use
- Academic research (use

Scan community channels for discussions on a topic.
Channels
- Hacker News: Algolia API at hn.algolia.com
- Lobsters: WebSearch with site:lobste.rs
- Reddit: JSON API (append .json to URLs)
- Tech blogs: WebSearch targeting curated domains
Workflow
- Build search URLs/queries per channel using
tome.channels.discourse.*functions - Execute via WebFetch (APIs) or WebSearch (fallback)
- Parse responses into Finding objects
- Merge across sources with source attribution
Exit Criteria
- At least two community channels (HN, Lobsters, Reddit, or tech blogs) queried per invocation
- HN results fetched via Algolia API at
hn.algolia.com(WebFetch); WebSearch used as fallback if the API is unreachable - Each Finding object includes a
sourcefield identifying which channel (HN, Lobsters, Reddit, or blog) it came from - If all WebFetch and WebSearch calls fail for every channel, the failure is reported explicitly rather than returning fabricated or empty findings
