So what is it?

EasyLastSkill is a German language skill for Codex or similar agent tools that quickly researches the most recent activity around a topic. By default it looks at the last thirty days and puts together a compact report that includes its sources, a relevance score, and a note about how uncertain the findings are. You install it either by pulling it in as a skill source with a command like npx skills add, or by building a local skill bundle with a Python script included in the repository. Once installed, you run it from the command line with the topic you want to research and how many days back to look, for example asking about OpenAI Codex over the last thirty days. The report can be saved to a file, exported as an HTML page for easy sharing, or generated in a comparison mode that evaluates two topics against each other, such as Codex versus Claude Code. Version 0.2 added several improvements: a better structured German language summary with a short conclusion, new signals, context, and uncertainty notes, more source types including news, Hacker News, GitHub, Reddit RSS feeds, arXiv, YouTube signals, and optionally Bluesky, the comparison mode, topic profiles for people, companies, products, repositories, and research, HTML export, a configuration file, a relevance score built from recency, source weight, engagement, and topic match, and a simple bundle build process for installing and releasing the skill. All of the sources it pulls from are public and do not require an API key. Configuration options, such as the topic, number of days, maximum results, which sources to use, and output format, are set through a TOML file. If network access, rate limits, or the search terms do not return usable results, the report says so directly rather than making something up. The project is licensed under the GNU General Public License version 3.0.
