Public read-only PANews content via

https://universal-api.panewslab.com

. Set the

PA-Accept-Language

request header to localize responses.

Current first-class support in this skill is limited to the bundled scripts below. Other public endpoints may appear in references as HTTP notes, but they are not part of the default supported workflow unless scripts are added later.

When to Use

The user wants structured JSON data from the PANews API
The task is article discovery, article detail lookup, rankings, or daily must-reads
The caller needs stable filters such as
```
columnId
```
,
```
tagId
```
,
```
authorId
```
, or article type

Do Not Use When

The user wants the rendered website page body or layout-aware Markdown output
The task requires authentication, publishing, or creator-only routes
The request is really about a PANews web URL rather than API data

Standard Workflow

Copy this checklist and work through it:

text

PANews Read Progress:
- [ ] Step 1: Decide API JSON vs website Markdown
- [ ] Step 2: Set locale (default: zh)
- [ ] Step 3: Pick the narrowest bundled script that matches the task
- [ ] Step 4: Retry once with a broader query if results are empty
- [ ] Step 5: Return the result with any filters or caveats called out

Rules

Always use

POST /search/articles

for keyword search — never

GET /articles?search=...

Default
```
mode=hit
```
; use
```
mode=time
```
only when the user explicitly wants newest results
Default article types
```
NORMAL,NEWS
```
; add
```
VIDEO
```
only when the user explicitly asks
This skill is read-only — for article creation and publishing use
```
panews-creator
```
Prefer bundled scripts before falling back to ad hoc HTTP requests
Treat reference-only endpoints as optional HTTP notes, not as default supported workflows

Failure Handling

If a search query returns no results, retry once with a broader keyword or fewer filters
If article detail returns
```
404
```
, report the article as unavailable instead of silently switching sources
If the request is really for a public webpage, route to
```
panews-web-viewer
```
