What it does
Investment News gathers news from more than 100 sources across 12 industries that map to China A-share sectors: semiconductors, AI, robots, electric vehicles, space and others. The skill has the agent set up a model, run `python3 server.py` and open `http://localhost:8793`. Collection runs locally on the Python standard library and a web page with tabs per industry shows the result. The model the user picks writes 3 to 5 short points per industry, translates English headlines into Chinese and removes duplicates across sources. A Claude Code subscription (`claude-cli`) or any OpenAI-compatible API works. The refresh button in the page corner runs `fetch.py` and `digest.py`. A keyword filter cuts gambling, prediction markets, cryptocurrencies and pornography. Each point links to its original source. The tool shows industry trends and contains no quotes.
Who it is for. Investors and analysts who follow Chinese market industries and read English sources together with Claude Code.
Good fit when
- The morning should start with the main points on semiconductors, AI and electric vehicles from English sources.
- A dashboard of your own is wanted with no accounts or cloud and with data on your computer.
- A Claude Code subscription already exists and paying for a separate API is unwanted.
- The source list should grow by adding an RSS feed to `sources.json`.
Not a fit when
- Quotes, price charts or trading signals are needed, and the tool shows none.
- The interface and digests are needed in a language other than Chinese.
- Python 3.7 cannot be installed.
Example request
Start the Investment News dashboard, connect my Claude Code subscription and show what is new in semiconductors.Limitations
Digests and translation are in Chinese, and so is the interface. The `claude-cli` mode works only on a machine with Claude Code installed and `claude login` done. News headlines together with the industry name go to the chosen model. If foreign sources fail to load, the README points to a separate network section. The authors stress that the tool shows trends and gives no investment advice. The last commit in the repository is from October 2026.
How to disable. Stop `python3 server.py` and delete the `investment-news` skill folder together with `data.js`, where the collected news is stored.
FAQ
How do I run Investment News?
Clone the repository, pick a model in `llm.config.json`, run `python3 server.py` and open `http://localhost:8793`. The refresh button in the page corner starts collection.
Is an API key required?
No, if Claude Code is installed and logged in: the `claude-cli` mode uses the subscription. A key for any OpenAI-compatible API such as DeepSeek or OpenRouter works instead.
Which industries are covered?
Twelve: AI, semiconductors, robots, electric vehicles, energy, biomedicine, space, cybersecurity, internet, consumer electronics, finance and macroeconomics, science.
How do I add a source?
Add a row with a name, an industry key, type `rss` and a URL to the `sources` list in `sources.json`. `fetch.recent_days` sets the window in days, 7 by default.
What does the dashboard show?
Industry trends and key events with links to the original. There are no quotes or trading recommendations, and the README states this plainly.
