How it Works

1. Scheduled Triggers The workflow runs every 3–4 hours using multiple Schedule Trigger nodes. Each trigger targets a different news source (e.g., Google News, OpenAI Blog, Hugging Face, etc.).

2. Fetch and Parse Feeds RSS feeds are fetched via the HTTP Request node. Items from the feed are split into individual entries using the Split Out node.

3. Scrape Article Content Each article URL is sent to the Firecrawl API with a prompt to extract only the main content in Markdown. The scraping skips navigation, headers, footers, and ads.
