RSS Feed Fetcher

Usage

abtars-rss --feeds <path-to-feeds.json> [--hours N]

• --feeds (required): path to a JSON file containing feed configs
• --hours (optional, default 24): only include items from the last N hours

Feeds file format

[
  { "url": "https://example.com/rss", "name": "Example Feed" },
  { "url": "https://other.com/atom.xml", "name": "Other Feed", "keywords": ["AI", "finance"] }
]

• url: RSS/Atom feed URL (or SEC EDGAR JSON endpoint)
• name: display name for the source
• keywords (optional): only keep items matching these keywords

Output

Writes to ~/.abtars/workspace/rss/<feedname>/<date>.json and prints JSON to stdout.

Task integration

Place your feeds file alongside your task with the _feeds.json suffix:

tasks/
  daily-ai-report.md
  daily-ai-report_feeds.json    ← auto-injected into task context

In your task .md, instruct: "Run abtars-rss --feeds tasks/daily-ai-report_feeds.json"

Do not

• Do not hardcode feed URLs in task instructions — put them in the _feeds.json file
• Do not parse HTML pages with this tool — it only handles RSS/Atom XML and SEC EDGAR JSON
