Full skill instructions

gdelt_news (GDELT headlines)

When to use

  • Fast, free headline scan for an entity/​topic.
  • Background news context to seed further research (then escalate to grok_search only if needed).

Parameters

  • query (string, optional): Search query. If omitted/​blank, defaults to a broad breaking-news query.
    • Special-case: "ai" expands to "artificial intelligence".
    • Too-short queries (<3 chars) error (except "ai").
  • limit (int, optional, 1–50): Default 20.

Examples

{ "name": "gdelt_news", "params": { "query": "tesla", "limit": 10 } }

Blank query (broad scan):

{ "name": "gdelt_news", "params": { "limit": 20 } }

Output

  • Returns: { query: string, items: Array<{title,url,source,publishedAt}>, cached: boolean, meta: { cached, shared, durationMs, timeoutMs } }
  • Rendered:
    • Query (text)
    • Meta (text: cached/​shared/​durationMs/​timeoutMs)
    • Headlines (table: publishedAt/​source/​title/​url)

Reliability notes

  • Provider layer includes:
    • Shared in-flight dedupe (shared=true when you joined an ongoing identical request)
    • Cache TTL ~30s
    • Global gate ~1 request per ~5.2s (GDELT-friendly)
    • Timeout defaults to 15s
