Neovim Daily Digest

---

name: neovim-daily-digest description: Build a filtered Markdown digest of important r/neovim posts by combining Reddit RSS feeds (top/day, new, and hot) and prioritizing Neovim tips, plugin updates, new plugin launches, and workflow/tooling posts while filtering sticky threads, low-signal showcases, and generic support noise. Use when the user asks for a Neovim daily roundup, today's r/neovim highlights, new Neovim plugin recommendations, or a quick Reddit digest of useful Neovim posts.

Neovim Daily Digest

Use scripts/neovim_digest.py as the primary data source. It fetches Reddit RSS directly, which is more reliable than browsing normal Reddit pages in environments that trigger Reddit's anti-bot wall.

Workflow

1. Run the script in JSON mode first:

python3 /Users/fox/.openclaw/workspace/skills/neovim-daily-digest/scripts/neovim_digest.py --json --limit 20

2. Keep the highest-scoring items by default. The script already combines: - top.rss?t=day for the true daily leaderboard - new.rss and hot.rss to catch later US-time posts and emerging discussions

3. If the user explicitly asks for more coverage than the current day supports, rerun with week backfill:

python3 /Users/fox/.openclaw/workspace/skills/neovim-daily-digest/scripts/neovim_digest.py --json --limit 20 --week-backfill

4. Rewrite the output into concise Markdown in the user's language: - 1 short intro line explaining the scope - 1 short observations section if useful - bullet list of selected posts with title link and 1-sentence takeaway - optional GitHub link when the post clearly links to a repo/plugin

5. Be explicit when daily top/day is thin. If only a handful of posts exist there, say that new and hot were used as supplemental feeds rather than pretending you found a full 20 in top/day.

Filtering Rules

Keep these by default:

concrete Neovim usage tips (:keepalt, buffers, LSP, Tree-sitter, cmp, diff, config/workflow)

plugin releases, plugin updates, and new plugin launches

AI coding workflow posts when they ship concrete Neovim functionality

troubleshooting threads only when they expose a broadly useful debugging/config lesson

Drop or strongly downrank these by default:

weekly/monthly sticky threads

pure screenshots or setup flex posts with no actionable detail

generic theme/colorscheme aesthetics unless there is a meaningful feature update

vague recommendation bait or support noise with little reusable value

Read references/filtering.md only when you need to explain or tune the heuristics.

Useful Script Modes

Default Markdown output:

python3 /Users/fox/.openclaw/workspace/skills/neovim-daily-digest/scripts/neovim_digest.py --limit 10

JSON for agent-side rewriting:

python3 /Users/fox/.openclaw/workspace/skills/neovim-daily-digest/scripts/neovim_digest.py --json --limit 20

Include lower-priority near-misses:

python3 /Users/fox/.openclaw/workspace/skills/neovim-daily-digest/scripts/neovim_digest.py --limit 20 --include-near-misses

Output Expectations

Prefer a digest that is useful to a working Neovim user, not a full feed dump.

Good output:

highlights the few posts worth opening

says why each post matters

links directly to the Reddit post

includes repo links when obvious

Bad output:

repeats every post mechanically

treats sticky threads as news

overweights pure aesthetics

claims there were 20 strong posts when there were only 7-10
