Tools & Capabilities Breakdown

Ai Feeds Tools (3)

list_feeds

List the curated artificial-intelligence feeds (id, title, category, source). Optionally filter by category (ai) or keyword. Pass an id to read_feed.

read_feed

Read a curated artificial-intelligence feed by its id (from list_feeds). Returns normalized items (title, link, published, summary). Optionally filter items by keyword.

fetch_feed

Fetch and normalize any RSS / Atom / RDF feed by URL. CF-robust: fetches directly and falls back to a proxy if the source blocks the gateway. Use list_feeds first for curated sources.

Timestamp Tools (4)

from_timestamp

Convert a Unix timestamp to an ISO-8601 UTC date + human forms. Auto-detects seconds vs milliseconds by magnitude (override with `unit`). Keyless, offline.
