Economy Digest

Source: Dify plugin source.
Support: [email protected].

Retrieve source-backed evidence for Japanese economic news through AIsa, then use a Dify
LLM or Agent to write a Japanese digest with citations. This independently
installable plugin contains one provider and one tool, both named .

Requirements and setup

Dify 1.16.0 or later with tool plugin support.
Python 3.12, with the tested SDK dependency .
An AIsa API key from AIsa Console.

Install the packaged in Dify Integrations, authorize the provider with
your AIsa API key, and add the tool to a workflow or Agent. Credential
validation is local: it checks the key format without an API request and does not
verify account balance or remote authorization. Requests use the fixed AIsa API
endpoint ; publisher credentials and subscription cookies are
not accepted.

The tool searches Nikkei only, across economic policy/indicators, markets, companies, and the global economy. The default searches four complementary topic lanes so stock-market stories do not crowd out policy, companies, and world trade. Every lane restricts article URLs to Nikkei; unavailable Nikkei coverage is not silently replaced by another outlet.

Inputs

Parameter	Default	Behavior
		(default), , , , .
	empty	Optional focus, at most 200 characters, appended to each Japanese query.
		Integer from 1 to 168; JSON timestamps are UTC ISO 8601; the report header displays JST ().
		Integer from 1 to 20; upper bound on returned deduplicated articles.
		Additional extraction for up to three selected public article URLs.
		optionally searches deficient lanes; keeps fallback disabled.
		Return the request plan without network calls or API usage.

Tavily news search is the primary retrieval route through AIsa. Enabling Brave
fallback or extraction can add billable API requests. Use to
inspect the plan first. The tool has bounded retrieval; it cannot guarantee every
article from a newspaper or immediate indexing of breaking news.

Outputs and digest workflow

The tool returns JSON evidence plus a readable Japanese source overview, not a
model-generated narrative. Connect the following named outputs to downstream
nodes: , , , , and . The full JSON
also records the time window, request activity, and request plan.

reports each selected lane with , , , and
error information. The overall status is , , , , or
. An empty or inaccessible source is reported explicitly. A request
failure must not be described as an absence of news.

Suggested workflow: tool → LLM → answer/output. Pass , , and
into the model prompt, together with this instruction:

Write a concise Japanese news digest using only the supplied evidence. Cite the
source URL for every item. Distinguish facts from opinion. Do not infer missing
details from a headline or excerpt. State missing source coverage and unknown
publication dates. Do not claim a paywalled article's full text was read.

The plugin does not invoke a model or request Dify model, app, endpoint, or storage
permissions. Model choice and any model charges belong to the downstream workflow.

Source availability

Search snippets, public excerpts, and extracted content have different evidential
limits. Subscriber-only content, robots restrictions, timeouts, missing timestamps,
and indexing delays can produce partial results. Article URLs remain linked to
the publisher; extraction does not bypass a subscription or retrieve content with
publisher login credentials. Unknown publication dates are disclosed rather than
presented as verified fresh stories. Duplicate URLs are removed before output.

Develop and check offline

From this directory, create a package-local Python 3.12 environment and
install dependencies:

From the repository root, run the package's mocked tests and collection check:

The tests use fixed clocks and fake clients. They do not need a real key or send
paid API requests. Keep , virtual environments, caches, and built archives
out of Git.

For remote Dify debugging, copy to , replace its placeholders
with the debug host and key from your workspace, and run inside
this directory. A connected debug plugin can be invoked by other workspace users;
news retrieval then uses your configured AIsa credentials. Do not share the debug
key. End-to-end validation requires an authorized workspace and live API usage.

Package

From the repository root:

The native identity is and the plugin version is .
Packaging creates an installable archive; publishing, repository pushes, and
Marketplace submission are separate actions.
