Runs the full feed-to-brief pipeline — fetches every configured source, scores and filters items by relevance, writes a human-voice brief per FEEDS.md, delivers it to the operator's configured channel, and archives it with rich frontmatter. Invoke with /hermitd-feed:feed-brief --morning|--evening|--slot <name> for scheduled or on-demand briefs. Reads feed-sources.md, feed-categories.md, and FEEDS.md from the project root.
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
# Feed Brief Run the full 7-phase brief pipeline for this project. Config lives at the project root (`feed-sources.md`, `feed-categories.md`, `FEEDS.md`); state and archive live under `.hermit/`. ## Flags - `--morning`: slot `morning`. Forward-looking. Emphasize what's new since yesterday evening, what's worth opening today, emerging patterns. Tone: calm, sharp, selective. - `--evening`: slot `evening`. Backward-looking. Emphasize what changed during the day, what escalated or faded, what to carry into tomorrow. Tone: slightly more reflective. - `--slot <name>`: custom slot label (e.g. `midday`). Use `<name>` verbatim wherever `<slot>` appears below. Orientation defaults to the morning (forward-looking) framing unless the operator's `FEEDS.md` says otherwise. Resolve `<slot>` from the flag before starting. All filenames below use that resolved value. ## Steps 1. Read `FEEDS.md` — brief philosophy, scoring rules, output format, and section guidance. 2. Read `feed-sources.md` — full source list with types and URLs. 3. Read `feed-categories.md` — operator's current focus areas and priority tiers (P1/P2). …

How to install
mdr add gtapps/hermitd/feed-brief@sha256:348bc0ad8d9e380cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261017.715ba4b, 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.
