When to use this skill

Activate when the user prompt sounds like any of:

• "Who's talking about <topic>?"
• "Find influential voices on <subject>."
• "Key people in <niche>."
• "Who should I follow for <topic>?"
• "Which subreddits / accounts cover <topic>?"

If the user wants the content of the conversation rather than the people behind it, use notslop-digest.

Setup (one-time)

The user must have run npx notslop init and configured:

• A ZeroEntropy API key (free at https://dashboard.zeroentropy.dev).
• Optionally: X handles, blog URLs, Orthogonal key. The X source materially improves voice discovery.

If config is missing, the CLI prints an actionable error. Surface it to the user verbatim and stop.

Steps

1. Extract the topic from the user's prompt.
2. Pick a --limit (number of voices to surface). Default 5. Bump to 10 for broader scans.
3. Optionally widen the rerank pool with --top 100 so author signal aggregates over more items.
4. Run via Bash:

``bash npx notslop@latest voices "<TOPIC>" --limit <N> --since 7d --format md ``

1. Parse the markdown output. Each voice carries a handle/username, source, and example items.
2. Return a ranked list with the source tag, a one-line "why they matter" inferred from their cited items, and at least one example URL per voice.

Example

User: "Who's talking about rerankers on AI Twitter?"

→ Run: npx notslop@latest voices "rerankers" --limit 5 --since 7d --sources x,hn --format md

→ Return 5 voices, one line each, with source, handle, and a representative URL.
