Amari — Interchained Signal Scout

A DevRel and sales signal scout built on top of @aiassist-secure/intelligence-mcp. It watches Reddit, Hacker News, and other public sources for real-time signals — people asking about MCP servers, BYOK AI infra, lead-gen tooling — drafts warm outreach openers, and exports a PDF report. The operator reviews and sends; the agent surfaces, not closes.

Built as a direct reference implementation of the Signal MCP.

Features

• Scans public sources via the Signal MCP listen tool (no browser, no OAuth)
• Dedupes and persists signals to a portable SQLite database (scout.db)
• Fully resumable — re-run any command, it picks up exactly where it left off
• Drafts warm, friendly reply starters (≤90 words, no CTA) via AiAS chat completions
• Exports a formatted PDF report: title, link, excerpt, suggested opener per lead
• Lead lifecycle: new → drafted → exported (or ignored at any point)
• Single watchlist.yaml config — no code changes needed to change what it watches

---

Requirements

• Node.js 18+
• An AiAssist Secure account with an aai_ API key

---

Setup

git clone https://github.com/aiassistsecure/Amari
cd amari
npm install

export AIAS_API_KEY=aai_...
export AIAS_PROVIDER=anthropic          # groq | openai | anthropic | gemini | mistral
export AIAS_MODEL=claude-sonnet-4-6     # any model your provider supports
export AIAS_API_BASE_URL=https://api.aiassist.net   # optional, this is the default

---

Usage

# 1. Scan all watchlist items for fresh signals
node amari.mjs scan

# Scan a single watchlist item with more results
node amari.mjs scan --only=mcp_seekers --limit=40 --verbose

# 2. Draft warm openers for every new lead
node amari.mjs draft

# 3. Review what was found
node amari.mjs list
node amari.mjs list --status=drafted

# 4. Export to PDF
node amari.mjs report
node amari.mjs report --out=./reports/2026-04-18.pdf

# Utility
node amari.mjs stats
node amari.mjs ignore <lead_id>

Watchlist

Edit watchlist.yaml to change what the scout watches. Each entry is a natural-language query sent to the MCP listen tool:

watchlist:
  - id: mcp_seekers
    label: People asking for MCP servers
    query: "looking for MCP server OR anyone built an MCP OR model context protocol"
    sources: [reddit, hackernews]

No code changes needed — just edit the YAML and re-run scan.

          draft.mjs           report.mjs
   (chat completions)        (PDF export)

The Signal MCP is spawned over stdio exactly as a third-party integrator would use it — this project is a live reference implementation.
