Version History

v0.2.1Feb 14, 2026 - Version note by skill developer:

Agent-agnostic: prefer WebFetch, fall back to feed get entry

What This Skill Does

Fetches and summarizes RSS feed entries using the `feed` CLI. Scans recent unread posts, selects high-signal items, reads full content, and compiles a themed digest. Works with any RSS/Atom feed collection managed by the feed tool.

Combining feed triage with full-text synthesis in one pass avoids the manual loop of opening tabs and skimming individually.

When to use it

  • Catching up on tech blogs after a few days away
  • Getting a morning digest of HN and industry news
  • Searching past posts for a topic you half-remember
  • Summarizing a specific feed before a meeting
  • Finding contrarian or surprising takes from the week

Example Workflow

Here's how your AI assistant might use this skill in practice.

INPUT

User asks: What's interesting in my feeds today?

AGENT
  1. 1Run `feed get entries --limit 50` to list recent unread posts with titles, sources, and summaries
  2. 2Triage the list and select 5-10 posts that are surprising, contrarian, or unusually insightful
  3. 3Fetch each post URL directly or use `feed get entry <id>` to read full content, parallelizing where possible
  4. 4Summarize each post in 2-3 sentences
  5. 5Compile summaries into a digest grouped by theme
OUTPUT

A themed digest of 5-10 summarized posts with links, grouped by topic cluster
