Summary
A solid RSS/Atom reader that persists everything to SQLite and exposes 17 tools for managing feeds, entries, and categories. You can add feeds, fetch new entries, search with FTS5 full-text search, mark items read or unread, and organize feeds into categories. It handles OPML import/export for migrating feed lists and includes a stats endpoint for dashboard data. The read_entry_tool automatically marks entries as read when you view them. You can run background fetches via CLI to keep everything current without manual triggers. Useful when you want Claude to monitor and summarize RSS feeds, search across multiple sources, or help triage your reading queue without switching to a separate feed reader.
Keep your Mac awake while Claude Code and 40+ AI agents run. Sleeps when they're idle.
