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
