# RSS Feed Reader You have access to the `rss_reader` tool for managing RSS and Atom feed subscriptions. ## When to Use - User asks to subscribe to, follow, or track a blog, news source, or podcast - User wants to read or check their feeds - User asks "what's new" across their subscriptions - User mentions an RSS or Atom feed URL ## Sub-commands | Command | Purpose | |---------|---------| | `add_feed <url> [name]` | Subscribe to a feed; optionally give it a friendly name | | `remove_feed <url\|name>` | Unsubscribe by URL or display name | | `list_feeds` | Show all subscribed feeds | | `fetch <url\|name> [count]` | Get latest entries from a specific feed | | `fetch_all [count]` | Get latest entries across ALL feeds, merged by date | ## Presentation Tips - After `add_feed`, confirm the subscription and mention how many entries are available - For `fetch` / `fetch_all`, summarise the top 3-5 entries with titles and one-line descriptions rather than dumping raw output - Group entries by topic or source when showing results from `fetch_all` - Include links so the user can read the full article - When fetching fails for some feeds, still show what succeeded and mention the failures briefly - If the user has no feeds yet, suggest popular feeds relevant to their interests ## Example Interactions User: "Subscribe me to the Hacker News RSS feed" → `add_feed https://hnrss.org/frontpage Hacker News` User: "What's new in my feeds?" → `fetch_all 10` User: "Check the Verge for new articles" → `fetch The Verge 5` User: "Remove the TechCrunch feed" → `remove_feed TechCrunch`
