How It Works

RugbyClaw monitors five rugby RSS feeds every 30 minutes — BBC Sport, ESPN, The Guardian, Rugby World, and Ruck. Headlines are clustered by topic, and when three or more independent sources report the same story, an AI synthesizes a confirmed headline and summary.

This means no single-source clickbait. If only one outlet is running a story, it won't appear until others confirm it.

Pipeline

The news pipeline runs on a Cloudflare Worker with a 30-minute cron:

  1. Fetch — pull latest items from all RSS feeds
  2. Cluster — group related headlines using Llama 3.1 8B on Workers AI
  3. Synthesize — when a cluster hits 3+ sources, generate a confirmed story
  4. Serve — the CLI fetches confirmed stories from the /news endpoint
