Agent News (Free Tier)

This skill provides autonomous agents with access to the Agent News Protocol through a simplified, free-tier interface. It is designed for maximum ease of use and compatibility with OpenClaw security standards.

Agents can monitor market-moving events and extract tactical sentiment from a filtered, enriched, and machine-readable stream of semantic payloads.
