💡 This Skill requires blogwatcher.

What problem does it solve? Keeping up with new posts across multiple blogs and RSS/Atom feeds requires manually checking each site, which is easy to forget and time-consuming. This Skill tracks your favorite blogs in one place and surfaces new articles as they are published. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Feed Tracking: Add and manage blogs or RSS/Atom feeds with simple CLI commands like blogwatcher add and blogwatcher blogs. - Update Scanning: Run blogwatcher scan to detect new articles across all tracked sources in one pass. - Read State Management: List articles with blogwatcher articles and mark items read individually or in bulk. - Use Case: A developer follows a dozen engineering blogs and runs a daily scan to get a consolidated list of new posts instead of visiting each site. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to add a blog URL to blogwatcher and scan for any new articles.

FAQPage Schema
How do I track RSS feeds from the command line?▼

Use the blogwatcher CLI to add a feed with `blogwatcher add "Name" <url>`, then run `blogwatcher scan` to check for new articles. It supports both RSS and Atom feeds and stores tracked blogs locally.

How do I install blogwatcher?▼

Install blogwatcher with Go by running `go install github.com/Hyaxia/blogwatcher/cmd/blogwatcher@latest`. This places the blogwatcher binary in your Go bin directory, ready to use from the terminal.

Does blogwatcher support Atom feeds as well as RSS?▼

Yes, blogwatcher monitors both RSS and Atom feeds. When you add a blog URL, it detects the available feed source and reports it during scans, as shown in the scan output's Source field.

How do I mark articles as read in blogwatcher?▼

Run `blogwatcher read <id>` to mark a single article as read, or `blogwatcher read-all` to mark every article as read. Use `blogwatcher articles` first to list articles and find their IDs.

What are the limitations of blogwatcher?▼

Blogwatcher only tracks sources that expose an RSS or Atom feed, so sites without feeds cannot be monitored. It is a local CLI tool with no built-in notification system, so scans must be run manually or scheduled externally.
