What it does

Yichen Unified Search is an agent skill from mcncarl/yichen-skills. 统一编排关键词驱动的公共网页、AI 最新动态、垂直领域和社交平台搜索,返回标准化候选;支持有界 X Research、显式站点 Map,以及本次搜索所得候选的轻量核验。不用于读取或下载用户直接给出的已知 URL,此类任务使用 yichen-content-archive。

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 35 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `README.md`, `README.zh.md` and `agents/openai.yaml`).

It sits in Data & Analytics. It works with Firecrawl.

When your agent uses it

  • Data & Analytics work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/yichen-unified-search”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. 根据路由读取 references/routes.md 中对应后端的参数与限制;不要默认加载全部平台细节。X、多后端或登录态路线先运行 ${YICHEN_SKILLS_ROOT}/yichen-web-research/scripts/doctor_yichen.py;Open…
  2. 只执行计划中的后端。AnySearch 使用 anysearch_adapter.py(读取现有 runtime.conf),AI HOT 使用 aihot_search.py,知乎使用 zhihu_adapter.py search|hot,微博使用…
  3. AI HOT、AnySearch、显式 Firecrawl 不可用时报告错误,只有用户同意后才改换公共网页后端。已有明确登录态例外见下一节;不要扩大例外。
  4. 按 candidate-schema.md 交接候选、routes、coverage、errors。非空原始结果无法解析必须记为错误;保留真实后端、原始 URL、时间限制和登录态。AI HOT 异常条目计入 rejected_count,全部异常为 failed,部分异常为…
  5. X 按 tweet_id、再 canonical URL 去重;其他平台按 URL 去重,并保留命中查询与来源。标题/作者/时间均高度一致才合并近重复;互动量不能证明事实。
  6. 搜索卡片、AI HOT 的 AI 摘要都只是线索。最终引用前打开原文核验具体主张。本轮 AnySearch 核验必须向 anysearch_adapter.py verify --candidate-from-search 提供带有效 HMAC 回执的完整 candidate…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9bd7898. 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

    Ships 10 files in scripts/ (Python, from the files we listed), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3

    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

Yichen Unified Search loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~13k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 40 tokens; SKILL.md has 279 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~40
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~13k

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 279 words (~1,133 tokens).

“按“确定范围 → 离线路由 → 执行候选搜索 → 标准化与核验”处理任务。保留用户指定的平台、关键词和时间,不把候选当成已核实事实。”
