summary

Aggregates Rust community news and updates from multiple sources, filtered by time range.

  • Fetches from five primary sources: Reddit r/rust, This Week in Rust, official Rust blog, Inside Rust, and Rust Foundation news/blog/events
  • Supports three time ranges (day, week, month) and category filtering (all, ecosystem, official, foundation)
  • Operates in two modes: agent-based (if rust-daily-reporter.md exists) or inline (direct source fetching via agent-browser, actionbook MCP, or WebFetch)

Rust Daily Report

Version: 2.1.0 | Last Updated: 2025-01-27

Fetch Rust community updates, filtered by time range.

Data Sources

Category Sources
Ecosystem Reddit r/rust, This Week in Rust
Official blog.rust-lang.org, Inside Rust
Foundation rustfoundation.org (news, blog, events)

Parameters

  • time_range: day | week | month (default: week)
  • category: all | ecosystem | official | foundation

Execution Mode Detection

CRITICAL: Check agent file availability first to determine execution mode.

Try to read: ../../agents/rust-daily-reporter.md


Agent Mode (Plugin Install)

When ../../agents/rust-daily-reporter.md exists:

Workflow

1. Read: ../../agents/rust-daily-reporter.md
2. Task(subagent_type: "general-purpose", run_in_background: false, prompt: <agent content>)
3. Wait for result
4. Format and present to user

Inline Mode (Skills-only Install)

When agent file is NOT available, execute each source directly:

1. Reddit r/rust

# Using agent-browser CLI
agent-browser open "https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/hot/"
agent-browser get text ".Post" --limit 10
agent-browser close

Or with WebFetch fallback:

WebFetch("https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/hot/", "Extract top 10 posts with scores and titles")

Parse output into:

Score Title Link

2. This Week in Rust

# Check actionbook first
mcp__actionbook__search_actions("this week in rust")
mcp__actionbook__get_action_by_id(<action_id>)

# Then fetch
agent-browser open "https://this-week-in-rust.org/"
agent-browser get text "<selector_from_actionbook>"
agent-browser close

Parse output into:

  • Issue #{number} ({date}): highlights

3. Rust Blog (Official)

agent-browser open "https://blog.rust-lang.org/"
agent-browser get text "article" --limit 5
agent-browser close

Or with WebFetch fallback:

WebFetch("https://blog.rust-lang.org/", "Extract latest 5 blog posts with dates and titles")

Parse output into:

Date Title Summary

4. Inside Rust

agent-browser open "https://blog.rust-lang.org/inside-rust/"
agent-browser get text "article" --limit 3
agent-browser close

Or with WebFetch fallback:

WebFetch("https://blog.rust-lang.org/inside-rust/", "Extract latest 3 posts with dates and titles")

5. Rust Foundation

# News
agent-browser open "https://rustfoundation.org/media/category/news/"
agent-browser get text "article" --limit 3
agent-browser close

# Blog
agent-browser open "https://rustfoundation.org/media/category/blog/"
agent-browser get text "article" --limit 3
agent-browser close

# Events
agent-browser open "https://rustfoundation.org/events/"
agent-browser get text "article" --limit 3
agent-browser close

Time Filtering

After fetching all sources, filter by time range:

Range Filter
day Last 24 hours
week Last 7 days
month Last 30 days

Combining Results

After fetching all sources, combine into the output format below.


Tool Chain Priority

Both modes use the same tool chain order:

  1. actionbook MCP - Check for cached/pre-fetched content first

    mcp__actionbook__search_actions("rust news {date}")
    mcp__actionbook__search_actions("this week in rust")
    mcp__actionbook__search_actions("rust blog")
    
  2. agent-browser CLI - For dynamic web content

    agent-browser open "<url>"
    agent-browser get text "<selector>"
    agent-browser close
    
  3. WebFetch - Fallback if agent-browser unavailable

Source Primary Tool Fallback
Reddit agent-browser WebFetch
TWIR actionbook → agent-browser WebFetch
Rust Blog actionbook → WebFetch -
Foundation actionbook → WebFetch -

DO NOT use:

  • Chrome MCP directly
  • WebSearch for fetching news pages

Output Format

# Rust {Weekly|Daily|Monthly} Report

**Time Range:** {start} - {end}

## Ecosystem

### Reddit r/rust
| Score | Title | Link |
|-------|-------|------|
| {score} | {title} | [link]({url}) |

### This Week in Rust
- Issue #{number} ({date}): highlights

## Official
| Date | Title | Summary |
|------|-------|---------|
| {date} | {title} | {summary} |

## Foundation
| Date | Title | Summary |
|------|-------|---------|
| {date} | {title} | {summary} |

Validation

  • Each source should have at least 1 result, otherwise mark "No updates"
  • On fetch failure, retry with alternative tool
  • Report reason if all tools fail for a source

Error Handling

Error Cause Solution
Agent file not found Skills-only install Use inline mode
agent-browser unavailable CLI not installed Use WebFetch
Site timeout Network issues Retry once, then skip source
Empty results Selector mismatch Report and use fallback
