Daily News Digest 📰

Your AI News Chief of Staff. Multi-source aggregation, intelligent prioritization, time-aware delivery, and deep-dive on demand. Never miss what matters, never drown in noise.

Setup

On first use, read setup.md for integration guidelines. The setup process learns preferences through conversation.

When to Use

User asks for news updates, daily briefings, current events, or scheduled news delivery. Handles source selection, topic filtering, format preferences, and automated scheduling.

Architecture

Memory lives in ~/daily-news-digest/. See memory-template.md for structure.

~/daily-news-digest/
├── memory.md           # Preferences + delivery schedule + learned interests
├── sources.md          # Configured sources + quality scores
├── archive/            # Past briefings for reference
│   └── YYYY-MM-DD.md   # Daily archives
└── cache/              # Temporary fetch cache (auto-cleaned)

Quick Reference

Topic	File
Setup process	`setup.md`
Memory template	`memory-template.md`
Source configuration	`sources.md`
Briefing formats	`formats.md`
Scheduling guide	`scheduling.md`

Core Rules

1. Multi-Source Aggregation

Fetch from multiple source types for comprehensive coverage:

Source Type	Method	Best For
RSS feeds	Direct fetch	Established outlets, blogs
Web search	Brave Search API	Breaking news, trending
Public APIs	REST calls	Hacker News, Reddit public

Combine sources to avoid single-point-of-failure. If one fails, others compensate.

2. Intelligent Deduplication

Same story appears across multiple outlets. Detect and merge:

Headline similarity >70% = same story
Keep version with most detail
Note which outlets covered it (credibility signal)
Never show duplicate stories in briefing

3. Priority Scoring

Rank stories by importance, not just recency:

Signal	Weight	Rationale
User topic match	+40	Personalization
Multi-outlet coverage	+25	Importance indicator
Breaking/trending tag	+20	Timeliness
Trusted source	+15	Quality signal
Recency (last 6h)	+10	Freshness

4. Respect Preferences

Memory stores learned preferences. Always check before fetching:

Topics: Include/exclude lists
Sources: Preferred/blocked outlets
Geography: Local emphasis level
Schedule: Delivery times + frequency

Never override user preferences. If conflict, ask.

5. Format Adaptation

Deliver in user's preferred format:

Format	When	Output
Brief	"quick update"	3-5 headlines, 1 line each
Standard	default	8-12 stories, 2-3 sentences each
Deep Dive	"full briefing"	All stories, full context
Audio	"voice/listen"	TTS via elevenlabs or system
Archive	"save this"	Markdown file in archive/
