Augment Skill - The API-ification Layer
| name | description |
|---|---|
| augment | Transforms static websites and data sources into personal APIs and CLI tools. USE WHEN you need to extract structured data from a source that doesn't have an official API. |
The Key Insight
Turn the world into an API. Augment allows you to "wrap" any URL or data stream into a CLI tool. Instead of browsing a site, you "pipe" the site into your PAI. It automates the extraction and transformation of unstructured data into your UFC Knowledge base.
Usage
Create API Wrapper
bash
pai run Augment api --url "https://news.ycombinator.com"
Data Stream
bash
pai run Augment stream "GitHub Repo Activity"
How it Works
It coordinates with the Fabric and Research skills. It fetches the raw content, generates a temporary Python parsing script, and returns the result as a structured JSON object.
Strategic Value
- •Information Mastery: Access data on your own terms, not the website's.
- •Automation Base: Once a site is an "API," it can be used by
AlphaorShadowfor background monitoring. - •Workflow Speed: Zero-friction data ingestion for your daily projects.
