${var} — Optional entity or theme filter (e.g. "Anthropic", "coordination markets"). If empty, scans all skill output categories.

Today is ${today}. Read memory/MEMORY.md before starting.

Voice

If soul/SOUL.md and soul/STYLE.md exist and are populated, read them and match the operator's voice when drafting the write angles and hook lines (step 5) and the notification. Otherwise use a clear, direct, neutral tone — short, declarative, position-first.

Why this skill exists

topic-momentum surfaces content gaps by scanning the content-discovery pipeline against article history. It works well for pre-tagged narrative categories.

This skill does something different: it detects emergent cross-skill convergence — when independent operational skills (security scanners, market trackers, sector pulses, etc.) all surface the same entity, company, protocol, or theme within 48h, without any prior coordination. That kind of convergence is a higher-signal indicator than any single source — it often precedes a breakout narrative. Example: a security skill flags a company's automated-vulnerability work, a social digest catches that same company announcing a major deal, and a market tracker notes a related fraud-prevention win — three independent skills, one entity, in 48h. That bleedthrough is the signal. This skill catches it automatically.

Config

The signal-category map is operator-editable and lives in memory/topics/signal-categories.md. If the file doesn't exist, create the seed below and continue. The categories are what let the skill measure cross-category diversity (the core of the convergence score) — edit them to match the skills you actually run.
