Can I run this skill on a schedule?

Yes, it is optimized for cron execution. You can set it to run daily via a simple bash command, and it will generate a full report and email digest once complete.

How does it handle duplicate competitions from different websites?

It performs a two-step check by searching for URLs in existing issue bodies and calculating title similarity; if a match is over 80% similar, it appends information to the existing issue instead of creating a duplicate.

Where does the skill store competition data?

The skill uses a designated GitHub repository as its database, storing each competition as an issue and using comments to house analysis strategies and entry drafts.

What kind of competitions does this work best for?

While it can track any competition, it is specifically optimized for '25 Words or Less' (25WOL) contests where creative writing and brand alignment are key to winning.

Does this skill require manual confirmation for each step?

No, the Daily Competition Scout is specifically designed for fully unattended operation, automatically handling persistence, analysis, and composition without any user prompts.
