System Running

The pipeline is live on Railway. Scrape and digest cron jobs fire on schedule. FeedRun logs are written to Firestore after each cycle.

Roadmap

What the Agent Learns Next

The current pipeline scrapes, scores, graphs, and digests. The next phase adds delivery, personalization, and real-time capability.

In Development

Real-Time Alerts

Breaking absurdist news delivered the moment the agent finds it. Configurable by category, source, and minimum Funny Score.

Planned

Audio Digests

Daily AI-narrated audio roundups generated automatically from the top stories. Published to a podcast feed every morning without any human involvement.

Planned

Personalized Feeds

The agent learns individual humor preferences over time and builds a personal digest tuned to each user's taste. Fully automatic, no manual configuration.
