What This Skill Does
Fetches personalized developer news digests from the Snapbyte API using API-key authentication. Supports Hacker News, Reddit, Lobsters, and DEV.to digest sources. Returns clean markdown output from user-scoped digest configurations.
Wraps Snapbyte's REST API in a single script so you get formatted digests in one command without writing auth headers or pagination logic yourself.
When to use it
- Check latest Hacker News digest from the terminal
- Browse Reddit developer digest history by page
- Fetch a specific digest's items by ID
- List all configured digest sources
- Pull a DEV.to digest summary into a markdown report
