Configuration

The skill uses configuration from:

  • •config/default.json - Source and analysis settings
  • •config/rooms.json - Matrix room definitions

Data Locations

  • •data/sources/ - Raw findings by source
  • •data/aggregated/ - Cross-source analysis
  • •data/reports/ - Generated reports

Integration

This skill integrates with:

  • •Beeper MCP - Direct access to messages via Desktop API
  • •GitHub MCP - Repository and issue monitoring
  • •File system - Local data storage and reports

Best Practices

  1. •Start broad, then focus: Run general scout first, then drill into specific topics
  2. •Use incremental mode: For regular updates, don't rescan full history
  3. •Cross-reference: Findings from one source often relate to another
  4. •Check status first: Run /scout status to see what's already collected
