About this skill
The problem
Managing multiple technical blogs and RSS feeds is tedious when done manually. Developers often lose track of new releases, security patches, or deep-dive articles because they lack a centralized, CLI-driven way to monitor updates.
What it does
- Interfaces with the blogwatcher CLI to track RSS and Atom feeds.
- Adds and manages blog subscriptions directly from the terminal.
- Scans for new articles and provides detailed summaries of update counts.
- Manages reading status for discovered articles to keep your feed clean.
- Filters and lists tracked sources and articles through simple commands.
Frameworks & tools
Go, blogwatcher CLI, RSS, Atom.
Why this beats prompting it yourself
Generic agents often hallucinate RSS feed structures or fail to maintain a persistent local state. This skill provides the specific syntax and logical flow required to operate the blogwatcher utility, ensuring feed management is consistent and error-free.
Use cases
- Automate daily scans of engineering blogs for library updates.
- Track multiple tech news sources without leaving the terminal.
- Maintain a reading list of technical documentation updates.
- Clean up old feed subscriptions via name-based removal.
Known limitations
Requires the blogwatcher Go package to be installed on the local machine. It cannot fetch content from blogs that do not provide a standard RSS or Atom feed.
