v0.3.3MIT

Name any subject and get a scout for it: everscout researches where the subject lives online, verifies each community and feed, and writes a beat (watch list, entity vocabulary, question bank, searches, study outline); then it reads Reddit, Hacker News, Bluesky, Mastodon, Lemmy, Discourse forums, newsletters, YouTube, GitHub, arXiv and Hugging Face at each platform's polite pace, distils one paraphrased note per thread worth keeping, tallies entities into signals (new, rising, fading), writes radar-style trend reports and a sourced baseline study, and drafts respectful questions to makers that you approve and post by hand, paced by a ledger and bound by a researched conduct code, answers any question about a subject like a reporter on the beat, from its notes plus fresh research, with sources and confidence, and keeps statistics per beat (a metric catalog, an append-only series from its tallies, GDELT news volume and Wikipedia pageviews, a review that promotes and archives metrics, chart-ready CSV for chartwright).

everscout-engage

Draft a respectful comment for the user to post by hand in a community their everscout beat watches: find a fresh post where a maker shows their work and nobody has asked about the process, write a true observation and one to three specific questions from the beat's question bank in the user's voice, check the pace rules (an hour apart, four a day, one per community a day, never the same person twice) and the community's AI rules, show the text for approval, hand it over to paste and record it in the ledger. Also drafts short thank-yous to makers who answered and replies from what the user actually knows. Use whenever the user says 'find a post to ask', 'ask a maker', 'engage', 'draft a comment', 'what should I ask this person', 'anyone to ask this hour', 'thank them for the answer', 'help me reply to this thread', or hands over a post and asks what to say. Also for 'refresh everscout-engage' and 'is everscout-engage stale'. Reading feeds is everscout-scan; defining the subject is everscout-beat.
