R Weekly Release Curation

Live Context

• Current draft: !cat draft.md

Your Task

You are helping the R Weekly curation team prepare the weekly issue. Work through the candidate content from curatinator_latest.md and populate draft.md.

Classification Rules

For each RSS POST, decide:

1. Is it R-related? If not, skip it entirely.
2. Is it already in the draft or flagged as a duplicate? If so, skip it.
3. Which section does it belong to?

Section in draft.md	Use when
### Tutorials	R tutorials showing how to use packages/tools; code is usually embedded
### Insights	Articles about R and data science in general; usually no code
### R in the Real World	Analyses using R on real-world data
### R in Organizations	R use cases in organizations / companies
### R in Academia	R use cases in academic / research settings
### Videos and Podcasts	Videos, screencasts, podcasts about R
### Resources	Books, slides, cheatsheets, websites, longer learning resources
### Gist & Cookbook	Short code snippets, gists, recipes
### Shiny Apps	Shiny applications
### R Internationally	Non-English R content
### Call for Participation	R groups, competitions, community calls
### Upcoming Events in 3 Months	Upcoming R events (max 3 links)
### Grants & Funding	Grants, funding opportunities related to R
### Datasets	Newly released or noteworthy datasets
### Connect	R jobs, communities
### rtistry	Generative art made with R

For CRANberries NEW entries: add under ### New Packages -> **CRAN**. For CRANberries UPDATED entries: add under ### Updated Packages.

Do NOT add anything to ### Highlight — editors vote for that section separately.

Link Format

+ [Title](URL)

For updated packages, preserve the diffify link if present:

+ [{pkgname} version](https://cran.r-project.org/package=pkgname) - [diffify](https://diffify.com/R/pkgname)

Images (optional, editor discretion):

![Alt text](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/...)

Fetching Page Content

To inspect a URL's content before classifying it, use any of:

• WebFetch tool — built-in; use it directly.
• curl https://r.jina.ai/https://www.example.com — fallback if WebFetch fails.
• curl https://defuddle.md/example.com — second fallback.

Steps

1. Check if any open Merge Request exists at https://github.com/rweekly/rweekly.org, if any prompt the user to check for then and continue only when the user has told you to.
2. Run the script at scripts/curatinator.R.
3. Read the current draft.md and curatinator_latest.md.
4. Check for duplicate with scripts/find_duplicates.R; skip any flagged URLs.
5. Process RSS POSTS: for each link, classify and add to the correct section in draft.md. Skip non-R content.
6. Process CRANberries NEW: add new CRAN packages under ### New Packages -> **CRAN**.
7. Process CRANberries UPDATED: add updated packages under ### Updated Packages.
8. Edit draft.md using the Edit tool to insert the new links into the appropriate sections.
9. Report a summary:
   • How many RSS posts were added (and to which sections)
   • How many CRAN new/updated packages were added
   • How many items were skipped (not R-related or duplicates)
   • Any items that were ambiguous and need editor review

Keep the existing content and structure of draft.md intact. Add new links at the bottom of each section, above any closing HTML comments.
