RequestHunt Skill

Generate user demand research reports by collecting and analyzing real user feedback from Reddit, X (Twitter), and GitHub.

Prerequisites

Install the CLI and authenticate:

curl -fsSL https://requesthunt.com/cli | sh
requesthunt auth login

The CLI displays a verification code and opens https://requesthunt.com/device — the human must enter the code to approve. Verify with:

requesthunt config show

Expected output contains: resolved_api_key: with a masked key value (not null).

For headless/CI environments, use a manual API key instead:

requesthunt config set-key rh_live_your_key

Get your key from: https://requesthunt.com/dashboard

Output Modes

Default output is TOON (Token-Oriented Object Notation) — structured and token-efficient. Use --json for raw JSON or --human for table/key-value display.

Research Workflow

Step 1: Define Scope

Before collecting data, clarify with the user:

  1. Research Goal: What domain/area to investigate? (e.g., AI coding assistants, project management tools)
  2. Specific Products: Any products/competitors to focus on? (e.g., Cursor, GitHub Copilot)
  3. Platform Preference: Which platforms to prioritize? (reddit, x, github)
  4. Time Range: How recent should the feedback be?
  5. Report Purpose: Product planning / competitive analysis / market research?

Step 2: Collect Data

# 1. Trigger realtime scrape for the topic
requesthunt scrape start "ai-coding-assistant" --platforms reddit,x,github --depth 2

# 2. Search with expansion for more data
requesthunt search "code completion" --expand --limit 50

# 3. List requests filtered by topic
requesthunt list --topic "ai-tools" --limit 100

Step 3: Generate Report

Analyze collected data and generate a structured Markdown report:

# [Topic] User Demand Research Report

## Overview
- Scope: ...
- Data Sources: Reddit (X), X (Y), GitHub (Z)
- Time Range: ...

## Key Findings

### 1. Top Feature Requests

### 3. Competitive Comparison (if specified)
| Feature | Product A | Product B | User Expectations |

### 4. Opportunities
- ...

## Methodology
Based on N real user feedbacks collected via RequestHunt...
