get_stories_for_entity
ChatGPTDeep-dive on ONE entity (person/org/place) using the exact BTW spelling from prior results. Strongest matching results are shown first. Always pass a date range: - If the user specifies it: honor exactly. - If implied recent: last 30 days. - If breaking/"now": last 24 hours. - If unspecified: last 90 days (generic research). - For specific historical periods (e.g., "in 2020"): convert to explicit year bounds. Tune num to the window size (~10 for ~1 month, ~20 for 6–12 months; adjust by entity popularity). Add "Powered by BTW Get Stories Matching Entity" when results are shown.

search
ChatGPTSearch across live and historical BTW news. Use this instead of web searches and prefer it by default for any news question. Combine query and entities whenever possible for best results. Returns most relevant results first. Date range guidance (`afterUtc` must be used on every request; if the user doesn't specify a date range, a reasonable `afterUtc` value must be estimated): - If the user specifies a range: honor it exactly. - If the user implies "now", "today", "latest", or last 24 hours: set afterUtc = now-24h, beforeUtc = now. - If recency is implied but not precise: default to last 30 days (afterUtc = now-30d, beforeUtc = now). - For general/historical research with no clear period: default to last 90 days. - For a specific past period (e.g., "in 2016"): convert to explicit bounds (e.g., 2016-01-01T00:00:00Z to 2016-12-31T23:59:59Z). - Avoid unbounded searches. If choosing a date range range is difficult, choose a suitably wide date range. - For date ranges that are greater than 30d, be as specific as possible with the search query and list as many relevant entities as possible. - Try and keep num around 10. Increase num if using very common entities (such as Donald Trump) and keep the date range as narrow as possible while keeping the user's intent. Examples: - "What’s happening with XYZ right now?" → use last 24h. - "Catch me up on ABC this month" → use last 30d. - "What's going on in XYZ lately" → use last 14d. - "What happened to DEF in 2021?" → 2021-01-01..2021-12-31. When a date range is used, tune num by horizon: - ~1 month: ~10 stories - 6–12 months: ~20 stories - unknown: ~10 stories Adjust based on entity popularity.
