# Web Article Analysis

Analyze blog posts, newsletters, and web articles to generate structured reports with summaries, key points, and insights.

## When to Use

Activate this skill when the user:
- Mentions "blog", "article", "post", "Substack", "Medium", "newsletter"

   - Suggest: "Try copying the content manually to inbox/ and use /analyze"
   - Stop here
4. **Read the analysis prompt** from `prompts/article.md`
5. **Extract the article title** from the page content
6. **Generate analysis** following the prompt structure exactly
7. **Save the report** to `reports/articles/YYYY-MM-DD_sanitized-title.md` where:
   - YYYY-MM-DD is today's date
   - sanitized-title is the title in lowercase, spaces replaced with hyphens, special chars removed
8. **Update the activity log** at `logs/YYYY-MM-DD.md`:
   - Create file if it doesn't exist
   - Add entry under "## Articles Read" section
   - Format: `- [Title](../reports/articles/filename.md) - HH:MM`
9. **Confirm to user** what was saved and where
