News Summary

# News Summary Fetch and summarize news from trusted international RSS feeds (BBC, Reuters, NPR, Al Jazeera) with optional voice summary generation via OpenAI TTS. News Summary fetches current news from trusted international RSS feeds and creates concise, organized briefings. It pulls headlines from BBC, Reuters, NPR, and Al Jazeera, groups stories by topic or region, and can optionally generate voice summaries using OpenAI's text-to-speech API. ## How It Works The skill uses standard curl commands to fetch RSS feeds from major news outlets. Headlines and descriptions are extracted using text processing, then summarized and grouped by category (World, Business, Tech). For voice output, the text summary is sent to the OpenAI TTS API which returns an MP3 audio file. ## Key Features - **Multi-Source Feeds**: Pulls from BBC (World, Top Stories, Business, Technology), Reuters, NPR, and Al Jazeera for balanced coverage - **Topic Grouping**: Organizes headlines by region or topic (World, Business, Tech) - **Voice Summaries**: Generates spoken news briefings as MP3 files via OpenAI TTS - **Balanced Perspectives**: Combines Western and Global South news sources for comprehensive coverage - **Concise Output**: Delivers 5-8 top stories in a clean, scannable format ## Requirements - **curl**: Standard command-line HTTP client (pre-installed on most systems) - **LLM API Key (optional)**: An OpenAI API key is only required for voice summary generation via TTS ## Use Cases - **Daily Briefing**: Get a quick summary of top world news each morning - **Topic Monitoring**: Track technology or business headlines from multiple sources - **Audio News**: Generate a spoken news briefing to listen to on the go - **Research Context**: Gather current events context from diverse international perspectives ## Installation Install via: `npx clawhub@latest install news-summary`
