How do I monitor a blog for new posts from the command line?

Add the blog with `blogwatcher add "Blog Name" https://example.com`, then run `blogwatcher scan` to check all tracked blogs for new articles. New items appear in the scan output and in `blogwatcher articles`.

How do I track RSS or Atom feeds with blogwatcher?

Pass the blog or feed URL to `blogwatcher add` and blogwatcher detects the RSS or Atom source automatically. Running `blogwatcher scan` reports the source type and how many new articles were found.

How do I install the blogwatcher CLI?

Install it with Go by running `go install github.com/Hyaxia/blogwatcher/cmd/blogwatcher@latest`. This places the blogwatcher binary in your Go bin directory, which must be on your PATH.

How do I mark articles as read in blogwatcher?

Use `blogwatcher read <id>` to mark a single article as read, or `blogwatcher read-all` to mark every article as read. Article IDs are shown in the `blogwatcher articles` listing.

Does blogwatcher run automatic background checks for updates?

Blogwatcher scans only when you explicitly run `blogwatcher scan`; it does not run as a background daemon. To get periodic checks, schedule the scan command with cron or another task scheduler.
