What it is

Research what people actually said about any topic in the last 30 days across Reddit, Hacker News, YouTube, GitHub, Polymarket and the web, plus X through the X plugin and TikTok, Instagram and Bluesky when you add their keys. It wraps Matt Van Horn's open-source last30days skill (MIT, version 3.31.0) and sets it up the Dimension way: from the plugin's card, with browser-cookie reading off.

What it contains

  • Skill last30days: the upstream skill and its Python research engine.
  • Tool last30days_setup: finds a real Python 3.12 or newer (never the Windows Store shortcut; it uses a Python uv already manages, and only suggests installing one), checks yt-dlp, marks setup complete with browser-cookie reading off and project config untrusted, checks the keys you connected on the card, runs the engine's source check, and reports which sources are working, which are not covered and why.
  • Runner run.py: every engine command goes through it. It hands the card's keys to that one run as environment variables, forces browser-cookie reading off and adds --no-browser-cookies, then runs the upstream engine unchanged.
  • Rule last30days-in-dimension: always-on routing. Setup goes through the tool instead of the upstream wizard, every engine command goes through the runner, keys are added only on the card, and X comes from the X plugin's envelope (x_posts_envelope) instead of last30days reading browser cookies.
  • Connect card with three ways in: free sources (installs yt-dlp), free sources plus a ScrapeCreators key, and free sources plus a Bluesky app password. The card also offers "Finish setup with your agent".

Who can use it

On by default. The free sources need yt-dlp (the card's Install button) and Python 3.12 or newer; the agent checks Python on first use and tells you the one command to install it if none is found. X needs the X plugin and a login to x.com in your browser. ScrapeCreators is a paid third-party API: 10,000 free calls, then pay-as-you-go; its key adds TikTok, Instagram and Reddit and YouTube backfill. Bluesky needs your handle and an app password.

Limits and risks

  • The engine runs on your machine and makes network calls to the sources above. Some networks block Reddit's or Polymarket's public endpoints; the setup report says so, and the research names those sources as not covered.
  • X through the X plugin covers only the last 7 days of the 30-day window.
  • Keys you add on the card stay in ~/.config/dimension-last30days/ and are passed to each engine run by the runner; they are not copied into last30days' own ~/.config/last30days/.env. Copies an earlier version of this plugin made there are removed the next time setup runs. A key with characters outside printable ASCII is refused and named; reconnect it on the card.
  • Local changes to the upstream copy, kept as small as possible. In the skill's frontmatter, version, author and homepage move under metadata, and argument-hint moves under metadata too; repository, user-invocable and the whole metadata.openclaw block (its env, bin and file lists and tags) are dropped; allowed-tools now follows license. The Agent Skills loader skips a skill with any other top-level field. scripts/lib/skill_meta.py reads an indented version: so the engine's badge still shows the version.

Build and test

bun test runs the setup tests in test/ (interpreter choice, config writes, key removal, the source report). bun run check runs the formatter and linter.
