What this skill does

# Singapore Government Tender Finder

Given a sector, scrape live Singapore government tender portals in parallel using TinyFish agents — returning only open tenders with upcoming submission deadlines.

## Pre-flight check

```bash
tinyfish --version
tinyfish auth status
```

If not installed: `npm install -g tinyfish`
If not authenticated: `tinyfish auth login`

---

## Step 1 — Clarify inputs

You need:
- **Sector** — one of: `IT / Software`, `Construction`, `Healthcare`, `Consulting`, `Logistics`, `Education`

If not specified, ask before proceeding. If the user gives a related term (e.g. "tech", "software"), map it to the closest sector.

Get today's date — you will use it to filter out tenders whose deadline has already passed.

---

## Step 2 — Parallel scraping

Fire all 5 agents simultaneously against the fixed portal list used by the app.

```bash
TODAY=$(date '+%A, %B %d, %Y')

# Agent 1 — GeBIZ (official Singapore government portal)
tinyfish agent run \
  --url "https://www.gebiz.gov.sg/" \
  "You are on GeBIZ, Singapore's official government procurement portal. Today is ${TODAY}.
   TASK: Extract open government tenders for the sector: {SECTOR}.
   Scroll through the page to find tender listings.
   For each tender extract:
   - Tender Title
   - Tender ID (official reference number)
   - Issuing Authority (government agency)
   - Country / Region: Singapore
   - Tender Type (Open / Selective / Limited)
   - Publication Date
   - Submission Deadline
   - Tender Status (Open / Closed)
   - Official Tender URL (direct link)

   - Do NOT paginate
   - Scroll maximum twice then stop
   - Maximum 5 tenders then stop immediately

Replace `{SECTOR}` with the actual sector before running.

## Step 3 — Filter and deduplicate

From all results:

1. **Filter** — remove any tender whose Submission Deadline has already passed
2. **Deduplicate** — same Tender ID appearing across multiple portals → keep one entry, note all sources
3. **Sort** — by Submission Deadline ascending (soonest closing first)
4. **Flag urgency** — deadlines within 7 days get a 🚨 flag
