# RSS / Atom
Fetch news / blog / podcast feeds. Backed by the `rss` extension using `feed-rs`
(handles RSS 2.0, Atom 1.0, JSON Feed).
## Use when
- "What's new on Hacker News / this blog / this podcast?"
- Heartbeat digest: "what happened today in my feeds"
- Monitoring release notes / changelog feeds
## Do not use when
- Real-time Twitter / Discord / Slack — different channels
- Free-form HTML scraping — use `fetch-url`
## Tools
- `status` — extension info
- `fetch_feed` — `url` + optional `limit` (default 20, max 100), `include_content` (default false)
Entries are normalized to `{id, title, link, published, summary, content, authors}`,
sorted newest first.
## Tips
- `include_content: false` by default — keeps responses small. Flip it when you
need the body text (e.g. to pass into `summarize`).
- Combine with `rss` + `summarize` + heartbeat to give kate a daily digest.
