FAQPage Schema
How do I automatically monitor RSS and Atom feeds for blog updates?

Automated feed monitoring discovers RSS and Atom feeds from blog homepages and tracks new updates automatically. It manages read and unread articles across multiple sources, eliminating the need to manually check each blog for new content.

Can I import OPML files exported from Feedly or Inoreader to track my existing feeds?

Yes, you can import OPML files exported from Feedly, Inoreader, or NewsBlur. This allows you to migrate your existing feed subscriptions directly into the monitoring system and start tracking updates immediately.

What happens if a blog does not have an RSS or Atom feed available?

When an RSS or Atom feed is not available, the monitoring system falls back to HTML scraping to track content updates. This ensures you can still capture new articles from websites that do not provide standard syndication feeds.

How does automatic feed discovery work for tracking new blogs?

Automatic feed detection works by scanning a blog's homepage to locate its RSS or Atom feed URL. You simply provide the blog URL, and the system automatically identifies and subscribes to the available feed for update tracking.

Do I need a specific command line tool to use blogwatcher for feed tracking?

Yes, this feed tracking Skill requires the blogwatcher-cli command line tool to function. It serves as the underlying dependency that powers the feed discovery, scraping, and article management operations.

Is there a way to track read and unread articles across multiple blog feeds?

Yes, the feed monitoring system includes built-in read and unread article management across all tracked feeds. This allows you to distinguish between new updates and previously viewed content across multiple blog sources simultaneously.
