Interactively add a new source to feed-sources.md with type inference, https and name-uniqueness validation, and category checking against feed-categories.md. Appends a formatted row to the Active Sources table. Invoke with /hermitd-feed:add-source.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Add Source
Add a new entry to `feed-sources.md`, enforcing the correct table format and source type.
## Steps
1. **Collect inputs** — ask the operator for:
- **Name**: short display name (e.g. "The Daily Dispatch").
- **URL**: full URL to the source.
- **Category**: must match one of the categories in `feed-categories.md` — read that file first and present the options.
- **Type** (optional — infer if not provided):
- URL contains `reddit.com` → `reddit`
- URL contains `twitter.com` or `x.com` → `x`
- URL ends in `.rss`, `.atom`, or `/feed` → `rss`
- URL is a known WebFetch blocker (a domain that blocks server-side fetch and requires a browser) → `chrome`
- Otherwise → `web`
- **Notes** (optional): brief description of what the source covers.
2. **Validate:**
- URL must start with `https://`.
- Name must not already exist in `feed-sources.md` — read the file and check.
- Category must match an existing category from `feed-categories.md`.
3. **Read `feed-sources.md`** to confirm the current table structure, then append the new row under `## Active Sources`:
```
| {Name} | {URL} | {Category} | {Type} | {Notes} |
```
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add gtapps/hermitd/add-source@sha256:a57cee6ea69fd84bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261002.2f2da1b, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
