SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Manually checking multiple RSS feeds every day is time-consuming and easy to forget. This Skill automates the process of fetching feeds, filtering new items, deduplicating against past logs, and delivering a concise daily digest. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Feed Aggregation: Reads feed URLs from memory/feeds.yml and fetches RSS/Atom XML for entries published in the last 24 hours. - Deduplication & Filtering: Checks recent memory logs to avoid repeating items and optionally filters by a topic variable. - Summarized Digest Delivery: Selects the 5-7 most relevant items, writes short summaries, and sends a formatted digest via a notify command. - Use Case: A developer tracking security blogs and project release feeds gets a single morning digest with links and one-line summaries instead of visiting each site. ## Quick Start Run the RSS digest skill to fetch my configured feeds and send me a summary of today's new items.

Frequently Asked Questions about RSS Digest

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate a daily RSS feed digest?▼

Configure your feed URLs in memory/feeds.yml, then run the skill to fetch each feed's XML, extract entries from the last 24 hours, deduplicate against recent logs, and send a formatted digest via the notify command.

How do I filter RSS feed items by topic?▼

Set the var parameter to a topic keyword before running the digest. When set, only feed items matching that topic are included; when empty, all relevant items are considered.

Does this support Atom feeds as well as RSS?▼

Yes. The skill fetches both RSS and Atom XML feeds, checking pubDate or updated tags to identify entries published within the last 24 hours.

What happens if curl is blocked in the sandbox?▼

If outbound curl requests are blocked, the skill falls back to WebFetch to retrieve feed URLs. For APIs requiring authentication, it uses a pre-fetch and post-process pattern described in CLAUDE.md.

Why is my RSS digest empty or missing items?▼

The digest is empty when no new items appear across all feeds, in which case it logs RSS_DIGEST_OK. Items may also be skipped if they were already recorded in the last two days of memory logs.
