What problem does it solve?

It saves time by automatically collecting and ranking the most relevant new posts for a topic each day, so you do not have to manually scan RSS feeds and the open web.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Daily RSS + Web coverage: Reads the last 24 hours from configured RSS/Atom feeds and supplements gaps with web search for the topic.
  • Relevance scoring and ranking: Scores candidates by recency, source priority (feeds outrank generic search), and specificity, then filters off-topic items.
  • Non-repeating recommendations: Tracks previously sent URLs so the digest does not repeat the same content across days.
  • Outputs you can read and share: Writes a per-day markdown digest into articles/ and logs scan/pick status in memory for visibility.

Quick Start

Use the research-digest skill to generate a daily digest for your chosen topic by passing the topic variable (leave it empty to use the default topic), so it produces a ranked set of new links from the last 24 hours and sends a notification with a full digest URL.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate a daily research digest from RSS feeds and web search?

To automate a daily research digest, this skill fetches and parses RSS/Atom feeds from the last 24 hours, augments gaps with targeted web search, and ranks results by recency and source priority. It outputs a markdown digest of top new posts.

What is the best way to monitor a research field without repeating the same articles?

Monitoring a research field without repeats requires tracking previously sent URLs for deduplication. This skill scores candidates by specificity and filters off-topic items, ensuring your daily brief contains only non-repeating, highly relevant links.

How does relevance scoring work for filtering automated morning briefs?

Relevance scoring for morning briefs ranks candidates by recency, source priority (feeds outrank generic search), and specificity, then filters off-topic items. This ensures only the most interesting and relevant new posts appear in your daily digest.

Can I generate daily digest reports for a team from specific RSS feeds?

Yes, you can generate daily digest reports for a team by configuring RSS/Atom feeds for your topic. The skill writes a per-day markdown digest into the articles directory and sends a notification with the full digest URL for sharing.

Do I need to configure web search separately when generating a daily brief?

You do not need to configure web search separately for your daily brief. The skill automatically supplements gaps in your RSS feed coverage with targeted web search queries based on the specified topic.

What are the limitations of using RSS feeds for daily research monitoring?

A limitation of using RSS feeds alone is coverage gaps, as not all sources publish feeds. This skill mitigates the limitation by augmenting RSS data with targeted web search to ensure comprehensive daily research monitoring.
