Is my chat history shared with third parties?

No. The analysis happens locally within your Claude session. It only uses external tools to search HackerNews for articles and to send the final report to your private Slack DM.

Can I specify the timeframe for analysis?

Yes, you can prompt Claude to analyze specific periods, such as 'just today' or 'the last two days' to focus the report on specific projects.

Do I need a Slack account to use this skill?

Yes, to receive the automated reports, you must connect your Slack account via the Rube MCP connection manager.

How does the skill access my coding data?

The skill reads your local Claude Code history file located at ~/.claude/history.jsonl to analyze interactions from the past 24 to 48 hours.

How are the learning resources selected?

The skill extracts keywords from your identified improvement areas and searches HackerNews for high-engagement posts with significant upvotes and relevant technical discussions.
