What This Skill Does
Manages Nostr activity through the nak CLI tool. Handles publishing notes, replying in threads with correct root/reply tagging, and querying relays for replies and mentions. Requires a Nostr secret key for signing and publishing events.
nak handles the low-level event signing and relay communication that would otherwise require manual JSON construction and WebSocket management.
When to use it
- Post a new note to a Nostr relay
- Reply to a thread with proper root and reply tags
- Check who mentioned your pubkey on a relay
- Monitor replies to a specific note
- Tag other users by npub when publishing events
