Use when: (1) reading RSS feeds or catching up on news, (2) user asks for a digest, roundup, or summary of recent posts, (3) user asks what's new or interesting today, (4) user mentions feed, RSS, or blogs." metadata: {"openclaw": {"emoji": "πŸ“‘", "requires": {"bins": ["feed"]}, "install": [{"kind": "brew", "formula": "odysseus0/tap/feed", "bins": ["feed"], "label": "Install via Homebrew"}, {"kind": "go", "package": "github.com/odysseus0/feed/cmd/feed@latest", "bins": ["feed"], "label": "Install via Go"}]}}

RSS Digest

Surface what's worth reading from RSS feeds. Requires feed CLI (brew install odysseus0/tap/feed).

Workflow

1. Scan β€” feed get entries --limit 50 for recent unread (title, feed, date, URL, summary). Auto-fetches if stale. If 0 results, run feed get stats β€” if 0 feeds, import starter set: feed import https://github.com/odysseus0/feed/raw/main/hn-popular-blogs-2025.opml and retry. 3. Triage β€” Pick 5-10 high-signal posts based on the user's prompt. If no specific interest given, prioritize surprising, contrarian, or unusually insightful pieces. 4. Read + Synthesize β€” For each picked entry, read the full content and summarize in 2-3 sentences. Prefer fetching the URL directly (e.g. WebFetch) if available β€” keeps full text out of context. Otherwise use feed get entry to read the stored content. Parallelize when possible. 5. Present β€” Compile the summaries into a digest. Group by theme if natural clusters emerge.

Commands

feed get entries --limit N              # list unread entries (table)
feed get entries --feed  --limit N  # filter by feed
feed get entry                      # read full post (markdown)
feed fetch                              # pull latest from all feeds
feed search ""                   # full-text search
feed update entries --read  ...     # batch mark read
feed get feeds                          # list feeds with unread counts
feed get stats                          # database stats

Notes

  • The entries table includes full URLs. Prefer fetching URLs directly (keeps full text out of your context window). Fall back to feed get entry if you don't have a web fetch tool.
  • Do NOT mark entries as read. The user decides what to mark read.
  • Default output is table β€” most token-efficient for scanning. Avoid -o json.
  • Filter by feed if too many entries: --feed .
