danish-news-feeds

What This Skill Does

The danish-news-feeds skill is a robust, automated RSS aggregator tailored specifically for the Danish media landscape. It consolidates over 100 disparate news sources into seven highly organized, category-specific XML feeds. By employing advanced deduplication logic and source-authority ranking, the agent ensures that the most credible and relevant headlines—ranging from national political coverage to niche technical updates—are prioritized for the end-user. It functions as a lightweight middle-ware, polling data every 15 minutes, cleaning the content, and serving it in a standard-compliant RSS 2.0 format that integrates seamlessly with any news reader or information dashboard.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your OpenClaw environment, execute the following command in your terminal:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/broedkrummen/danish-news-feeds

Ensure you have the necessary system dependencies installed: feedparser and python-dateutil. For production environments, the skill supports Docker-based deployment using the provided Dockerfile, or a simple cron job implementation for Linux-based servers to ensure the aggregator triggers every 15 minutes.

Use Cases

This skill is ideal for news junkies, researchers, and professional analysts who need a pulse on Danish society without visiting dozens of websites. It is perfect for building a personalized news dashboard, monitoring financial trends via the business feed, or tracking local community updates through the regional news stream. Developers can also use these aggregated feeds as a data source for building sentiment analysis models or automated daily news summaries.

Example Prompts

1. "OpenClaw, give me a quick summary of the top three headlines from the Danish tech sector using the danish-tech feed."
2. "Please check the danish-business feed and tell me if there are any major updates regarding the Nationalbanken today."
3. "Could you monitor the danish-national feed for any breaking news related to the current parliament and ping me if something significant happens?"

Tips & Limitations

The primary limitation of this tool is its reliance on public RSS availability; if a news outlet changes its feed structure, the aggregator may require a configuration update in feeds.json. To get the most out of the skill, it is recommended to monitor the source directory for any changes to the aggregation logs. Ensure your server time is synchronized to avoid drift in the auto-refresh cycle. For the best performance, consider hosting the output files on a lightweight web server like Nginx to ensure high availability for your RSS readers.
