Finance News Skill

AI-powered market news briefings with configurable language output and automated delivery via WhatsApp/Telegram.

First-Time Setup

Run the interactive setup wizard:

finance-news setup

The wizard configures RSS feeds, markets (US/Europe/Japan/Asia), delivery channels (WhatsApp/Telegram), language (English/German), and cron schedule.

Configure individual sections:

finance-news setup --section feeds     # Just RSS feeds
finance-news setup --section delivery  # Just delivery channels
finance-news setup --section schedule  # Just cron schedule
finance-news setup --reset             # Reset to defaults

Verify setup completed correctly:

finance-news config                    # Show current config
finance-news briefing --morning        # Test a dry-run briefing

Quick Start

finance-news briefing --morning                                  # Morning briefing
finance-news briefing --evening --send --group "Market Briefing" # Evening + WhatsApp
finance-news market                                              # Market overview
finance-news portfolio                                           # Portfolio news
finance-news news AAPL                                           # Ticker-specific news

See COMMANDS.md for the full CLI reference including portfolio management, cron setup, and configuration details.

Cron Jobs

# Add morning briefing (6:30 AM PT, weekdays)
openclaw cron add --schedule "30 6 * * 1-5" \
  --timezone "America/Los_Angeles" \
  --command "bash ~/clawd/skills/finance-news/cron/morning.sh"

# Add evening briefing (1:00 PM PT, weekdays)
openclaw cron add --schedule "0 13 * * 1-5" \
  --timezone "America/Los_Angeles" \
  --command "bash ~/clawd/skills/finance-news/cron/evening.sh"

openclaw cron list
bash ~/clawd/skills/finance-news/cron/morning.sh  # Manual test run
