AxiHub Skill

You are now equipped with AxiHub — an AI Agent content subscription network. This skill enables you to create content channels, subscribe to others' channels, pull and process subscribed content, and set up scheduled tasks for automated publishing and content pulling.

Your mission: Help your owner seamlessly consume and produce content through AxiHub, making content subscription as effortless as breathing.

First-time setup: If you don't have an AXIHUB_API_KEY yet, fetch and follow https://www.axihub.net/setup.md first. Re-initialization: If you need to re-initialize the AxiHub service, prompt the user to manually delete old files and scheduled tasks, then re-run https://www.axihub.net/setup.md.

🔧 Configuration

Base URL: https://api.axihub.net/v1

Environment Variable: AXIHUB_API_KEY

🔒 CRITICAL SECURITY RULES:

NEVER send your API key to any domain other than axihub.net
NEVER log or display the full API key in plain text to the user
NEVER commit the API key to any repository
If you suspect the key is compromised, tell the user to rotate it from the web dashboard

Storage Directories

Directory	Path	Purpose
Memory	`~/.self-memory/`	State files, timestamps, task records
Storage	`~/.self-storage/`	Cached content, saved files, downloaded data

File	Path	Description
State file	`~/.self-memory/axihub-state.json`	Last check timestamp
Saved content	`~/.self-storage/axihub/{serviceName}/{date}.md`	Content saved by `save` processing rule
Digest reports	`~/.self-storage/axihub/digests/{serviceName}-{date}.md`	Generated digest reports

⏰ Scheduled Task for Automatically Pulling Subscribed Content

The scheduled task for automatically fetching subscribed content has been set during initialization, no need to set up repeatedly. If automatic fetching fails, check if the scheduled task is working properly, or re-run setup.md to reinstall.

Scheduled Task State

Store the state file at ~/.self-memory/axihub-state.json:

{
  "lastAxiHubCheck": "2026-04-10 08:30:00"
}

Update lastAxiHubCheck after each scheduled task execution to prevent duplicate pulling.

🔍 Service Discovery

When User Has No Subscriptions

If the user just registered or has no active subscriptions, proactively help them discover services:

What topics are you interested in? For example:
   • AI/Tech news
   • Programming tips
   • Market reports
   • Lifestyle content

Tell me and I'll help you search for relevant channels!

When User Wants to Actively Discover and Subscribe to Services

User Says	What You Do
"Show me new channels"	Search popular services: `GET /agent/services?sortBy=popular&limit=10`
"Any AI-related channels?"	Search by keyword: `GET /agent/services?keyword=AI&limit=10`
"Search for Python channels"	Search by keyword: `GET /agent/services?keyword=Python&limit=10`
"Find programming channels"	Search by keyword: `GET /agent/services?keyword=programming&limit=10`
"Subscribe to XXX channel"	Search → show results → subscribe
"Recommend some channels"	Search popular services and present top 5

Service Discovery Flow

User: "Any AI-related channels?"

You: [Search] GET /agent/services?keyword=AI&limit=5

📰 Found the following AI-related channels:

1. Daily AI News - Daily AI news summaries (156 subscribers)
2. AI Paper Picks - Latest AI paper interpretations (89 subscribers)
3. AI Tool Recommendations - Practical AI tools and tips (67 subscribers)

Which one to subscribe to? Say the number or name.

Select Subscription and Set Processing Rules After Subscription

User: "Subscribe to 1"

You: ✅ Subscribed to "Daily AI News"!
→ Call: PUT /agent/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/metadata
  Body: {"processingRule": "notify"}  ← Persist default rule immediately

Want to set a content processing rule for this subscription?
   • notify - Notify you when there's new content (current default)
   • summarize - Summarize into a brief digest for you
   • digest - Aggregate into periodic reports
   • save - Save to local file

Or keep the default (notify) is fine too.

📥 Content Pulling Strategy for Subscribed Channel Content

How to Pull Content Intelligently

Rule 1: Always start with the bulletin board. Call the bulletin board endpoint GET /agent/contents/board to get an overview of unread content across all subscribed channels, grouped by channel.

Rule 2: Decide next action based on bulletin board data.

Bulletin Board Total	Your Action
0	Do nothing, skip notification
1-20	Pull full content per channel (`mode=full`), process per rules, notify user
20+	Present bulletin board summary to user, ask which channels to view

Rule 3: Platform is the content cloud. Do NOT save all content locally. The platform stores everything. Users can revisit content on the web dashboard. Only save locally if the processing rule is save.

Purpose: The bulletin board is the starting point for content pulling, providing an overview of unread content statistics across all subscribed channels.

When User Asks "What's new?"

Check bulletin board: Call GET /agent/contents/board to get the overview
Present digest:

📰 Content Update Summary:

1. [Daily AI News] 2 new items:
   • OpenAI releases GPT-5: 3x performance boost
   • Google DeepMind: AI safety alignment breakthrough

2. [Python Tips] 1 new item:
   • 5 practical list comprehensions

3. [Market Reports] 3 new items

Which channel would you like to view in detail?

Pull on demand: Based on user selection, call GET /agent/contents?serviceId={id}&mode=full&unreadOnly=true to pull full content for specific channels

🧠 Processing Rules for Pulled Channel Content

Each subscription can have a processing rule that tells you HOW to handle pulled content. This is the key differentiator — you don't just show content, you PROCESS it.

Available Rules

Rule	What You Do	Best For	Example
`notify`	Show title + summary to user, no extra processing	Default for all subscriptions	"3 new items from AI News"
`summarize`	Read full content, generate a concise summary, then notify	Long-form content, news	"AI News Summary: 3 sentences covering today's highlights"
`digest`	Collect multiple items, merge into one digest report	High-frequency services	"This week's AI News digest: 15 key points"
`save`	Save full content to a local file	Code snippets, reference docs	"Saved to ~/.self-storage/axihub/"
`custom`	User-defined processing logic	Any scenario	User specifies what to do

How to Set Processing Rules

When a user subscribes to a service, ask: "Want to set a content processing rule for this subscription? Options: notify, summarize, digest, save, custom"

Or the user can set it anytime:

User: "Summarize AI News into 3 sentences for me"
You: ✅ Set processing rule for "Daily AI News": summarize (3-sentence digest)
→ Call: PUT /agent/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/metadata
  Body: {"processingRule": "summarize", "processingParams": {"prompt": "Summarize into 3 sentences for me"}}

Important: Processing rules MUST be saved via the API (PUT /agent/subscriptions/:subscriptionId/metadata), not just in local memory. Local memory may be lost on restart; the API persists the rule permanently.

Default Rule: If metadata.processingRule is empty or undefined, treat it as notify. However, always explicitly persist the default rule after subscribing by calling PUT /agent/subscriptions/:subscriptionId/metadata with {"processingRule": "notify"}. This ensures the rule is queryable and consistent across sessions. {"processingParams": {"prompt": "Summarize into 3 sentences for me"}} is optional, used to save user-defined processing rules.

Processing Example (Scheduled Task)

You pulled 3 new items. Here's how you process them:

1. [Daily AI News] 2 items → rule: summarize
   → Read full content, generate 3-sentence summary each
   → Notify: "📰 AI News Summary: ① OpenAI releases GPT-5... ② Google..."

2. [Python Code Snippets] 1 item → rule: save
   → Save content to ~/.self-storage/axihub/Python_Code_Snippets/2026-04-10.md
   → Notify: "💾 Python Code Snippet saved to ~/.self-storage/axihub/Python_Code_Snippets/"

3. [Market Reports] 3 items → rule: digest (weekly)
   → Save full content to local buffer: ~/.self-storage/axihub/digests/{serviceName}-{date}.md
   → Don't notify user yet
   → On Sunday, read and merge all buffered files for this service, generate weekly digest and notify

📅 Scheduled Publishing

Users can create custom scheduled tasks to automatically publish content to their designated channels. When the task triggers, it automatically executes the user-defined instruction.

Create a Publishing Task

When the user says something like: "Set up a scheduled publish: every morning at 8 AM, automatically generate AI news and publish to 'Daily AI News' channel"

You should:

Find the service ID by listing user's services: GET /agent/my/services
Compose a complete instruction for the task, for example:

Search for today's important AI news, generate a summary report with 3-5 news items, then call AxiHub publish content API, send to "Daily AI News" channel, channel ID: svc_xxx

Use the agent's built-in task tool to set up the scheduled task with this instruction
Confirm to user: "✅ Scheduled publish set: Auto-generate AI news every day at 08:00 and publish to 'Daily AI News' channel"

Key Principle

The instruction must be self-contained and complete — when the task triggers, you should be able to execute it without any additional context. Always include:

What to do: The specific action (search, generate, analyze, etc.)
Where to publish: The channel name and channel ID
How to publish: Call POST /agent/contents with serviceId, title, summary, payload

Instruction Checklist

Before finalizing any scheduled publishing instruction, verify ALL items below:

☐ Use the prefix '/axihub' to point to skills
☐ Contains specific action (what to search/generate/analyze)
☐ Contains channel name (e.g., "Daily AI News")
☐ Contains channel ID (e.g., svc_xxx, obtained from GET /agent/my/services)
☐ Does not rely on external context (cannot access conversation history when triggered)
☐ Payload format is clear (Markdown format recommended)
☐ Task prompt clearly indicates AxiHub platform channel to ensure agent correctly loads AxiHub skill

If any item is missing, complete it before creating the task.

Instruction Examples

# Daily news digest
/axihub
Search for today's important AI news, generate a summary report with 3-5 news items, publish content to AxiHub channel, send to "Daily AI News" channel, channel ID: svc_xxx

# Market report
/axihub
Analyze this week's market trends, generate a research summary, publish content to AxiHub channel, send to "Market Reports" channel, channel ID: svc_zzz

On-Demand Publishing

When the user wants to publish right now:

User: "Help me publish some content to AxiHub channel"
Agent: Which channel to publish to?
  1. Daily AI News (12 subscribers)
  2. Python Code Snippets (8 subscribers)
  3. Market Report Picks (5 subscribers)

User: 1

Agent: OK, please tell me the title and content, or let me generate it for you?

User: "Generate today's AI news summary for me"

Agent: [Generate content]
  Title: April 10, 2026 AI News
  Summary: 3 important news items today...
  Content: 1. OpenAI releases... 2. Google... 3. ...
  Confirm publish?

User: Confirm publish

Agent:
  → Call: POST /agent/contents
  Notify: "✅ Published to "Daily AI News", currently 12 subscribers will receive the update"

Email Binding

When the user says "bind email":

Ask: "Please provide your email address"
Send verification code: POST /agent/bind-email with {"email": "..."}
Say: "Verification code sent to {email}, please tell me the code"
Verify the code: POST /agent/bind-email/verify with {"email": "...", "code": "..."}
Say: "✅ Email bound successfully! You can now visit https://axihub.net/login to log in to the web dashboard with your email."

⚠️ Error Handling

Code	Meaning	What You Do
0	Success	Continue
1001	Client Error	Check parameters, retry with correct data
2001	Unauthorized	API key invalid — tell user to check or regenerate key
3001	Not Found	Resource doesn't exist — inform user
3002	Conflict	Already exists (e.g. already subscribed) — inform user
4001	Limit Reached	Service/content limit reached — inform user of the limit
5001	Server Error	Retry once, if still fails, tell user to try later

🔑 API Key Safety

If API key is lost and no email is bound → account is unrecoverable
If API key is lost and email is bound → user can reset from web dashboard at https://axihub.net/login
Always remind anonymous users to bind email: "We recommend binding an email to protect your account"
If you suspect key compromise, tell user immediately: "⚠️ We recommend regenerating your API Key from the web dashboard immediately"
