feedship（feedship 搜索）

Feedship Skill

Version: 1.5 For: Claude Code and OpenClaw compatible agents Description: Manage information feeds, subscribe to RSS/GitHub sources, and search articles

Setup

Before using this skill, install feedship with ML and cloud extras:

uv tool install 'feedship[ml,cloudflare]' --python 3.12 --force

Note: cloudflare extra provides scrapling (HTML fetching); ml extra provides sentence-transformers + chromadb (semantic search). Both are required for full functionality.

China / Restricted Networks

For environments where PyPI or HuggingFace is not accessible, use mirrors:

# Add to ~/.bashrc for persistence
echo 'export HF_ENDPOINT=https://hf-mirror.com' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'export PIP_INDEX_URL=https://mirrors.aliyun.com/pypi/simple/' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc

# Install
uv tool install 'feedship[cloudflare,ml]' --force

Upgrade

# From PyPI (if accessible)
uv tool upgrade feedship

# From GitHub (latest commits)
uv tool install 'feedship @ git+https://github.com/yanpeipan/feedship.git' \
  --pip-args='-i https://mirrors.aliyun.com/pypi/simple/ --trusted-host mirrors.aliyun.com' \
  --include-deps --force

After installation, verify with: feedship --version

First-time setup for semantic search: After installing, run feedship fetch --all to populate the vector database with article embeddings. Semantic search requires embeddings to be generated first (chromadb storage).

Common Patterns

Initial Setup

# Add a website feed
feedship feed add https://example.com --automatic on

# Fetch all feeds
feedship fetch --all

# View recent articles
feedship article list --limit 50

Daily Workflow

# Fetch new articles
feedship fetch --all

# Search for topics
feedship search "machine learning" --semantic

# Read an article
feedship article view abc12345

# Open in browser for full view
feedship article open abc12345

Feed Management

# List feeds
feedship feed list -v

# Remove stale feed
feedship feed remove old123

# Discover new feeds on site
feedship discover news-site.com --discover-depth 2

Scheduled Fetching (OpenClaw Best Practice)

For automated periodic fetching, use platform-specific schedulers:

macOS (LaunchAgent):

<!-- ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.feedship.fetch.plist -->
<key>ProgramArguments</key><array><string>/usr/local/bin/feedship</string><string>fetch</string><string>--all</string></array>
<key>StartInterval</key><integer>3600</integer>  <!-- every hour -->

Linux (systemd timer):

# ~/.config/systemd/user/feedship.timer
[Timer] OnBootSec=5min OnUnitActiveSec=1h

Cron:

0 * * * * feedship fetch --all >> ~/.feedship/fetch.log 2>&1

OpenClaw Cron (every 30 minutes):

openclaw cron add \
  --name "feedship-fetch" \
  --agent agent \
  --cron "*/30 * * * *" \
  --tz Asia/Shanghai \
  --session isolated \
  --message "uv run --with feedship[ml,cloudflare] feedship fetch --all" \
  --timeout-seconds 1800

Optional Dependencies

ML Extra (pip install feedship[ml])

Required for semantic search and related articles:

• sentence-transformers
• chromadb
• torch

Cloudflare Extra (pip install feedship[cloudflare])

For enhanced web scraping with:

• browserforge
• playwright
• curl-cffi
