FeedCraft

System Tools

FeedCraft provides several built-in tools to help you debug your RSS feeds and monitor the system’s health. You can access these tools under the Tools menu in the admin dashboard.

RSS Viewer

Section titled “RSS Viewer”

The RSS Viewer (Feed Viewer) allows you to preview any RSS feed as FeedCraft sees it.

  • Usage:
    1. Navigate to Tools > RSS Viewer.
    2. Enter an RSS/Atom URL.
    3. Click Preview.
  • Purpose: Verify if FeedCraft can successfully fetch and parse a feed before setting up a recipe.
  • Note: The viewer uses the proxy craft by default, which simply fetches the feed without modification.

Feed Compare

Section titled “Feed Compare”

The Feed Compare tool lets you visualize the effect of a Craft (Atom or Flow) on a feed.

  • Usage:
    1. Navigate to Tools > Feed Compare.
    2. Enter the original RSS feed URL.
    3. Select a FlowCraft or AtomCraft to apply.
    4. Click Compare.
  • Output: The tool displays two columns:
    • Left: The original feed content.
    • Right: The feed content after being processed by the selected Craft.
  • Use Case: Great for testing new translation flows or summarization prompts without creating a permanent recipe.

Craft Dependencies

Section titled “Craft Dependencies”

The Craft Dependencies (System Health) tool visualizes the internal relationships between your Recipes, FlowCrafts, and AtomCrafts.

  • Usage:
    1. Navigate to Tools > Craft Dependencies.
    2. Click Analyze Craft Dependencies.
  • Features:
    • Generates a tree view of all dependencies.
    • Health Check: Automatically detects missing dependencies (e.g., a Recipe pointing to a deleted FlowCraft).
    • Visual Indicators: Different colors for Recipes, Flows, Atoms, and missing components.

Debug Tools

Section titled “Debug Tools”
