# RSS Digest
Surface what's worth reading from your feeds. Requires `feed` CLI (`brew install odysseus0/tap/feed`).
## Workflow
1. **Fetch** — `feed fetch` to pull latest entries.
2. **Scan** — `feed get entries --limit 50` for recent unread (title, feed, date, summary).
3. **Triage** — Pick 5-10 high-signal posts. Prioritize: AI progress, systems engineering, developer tools, anything surprising or contrarian.
4. **Read** — `feed get entry <id>` for each pick (full post as Markdown).
5. **Synthesize** — For each post: title, source, 2-3 sentence summary of why it matters. Group by theme if natural clusters emerge.
6. **Mark read** — `feed update entries --read <id1> <id2> ...` to mark triaged entries as read.
## Commands
```
feed fetch # pull latest from all feeds
feed get entries --limit N # list unread entries (table)
feed get entries --feed <id> --limit N # filter by feed
feed get entry <id> # read full post (Markdown)
feed search "<query>" # full-text search
feed update entries --read <id> ... # batch mark read
feed get feeds # list feeds with unread counts
feed get stats # database stats
```
## Notes
- Default output is table — most token-efficient for scanning. Avoid `-o json`.
- `feed get entry <id>` returns Markdown — read this for the actual post content.
- Filter by feed if too many entries: `--feed <feed_id>`.
