Core Concepts

Before diving deep into FeedCraft, it’s helpful to understand these three core concepts.

AtomCraft

AtomCraft is the smallest processing unit. In addition to built-in AtomCrafts (like translate-title, fulltext), you can create custom AtomCrafts based on templates.

Example: Custom Translation Prompt You can create a new AtomCraft named translate-to-french based on the translate-content template and fill in a custom Prompt in the parameters to instruct the AI to translate content into French.

FlowCraft

FlowCraft is a combined sequence of multiple AtomCrafts. This allows you to chain multiple operations together.

Example: Fulltext + Summary + Translation You can define a FlowCraft named digest-and-translate containing the following steps:

1. fulltext (Extract content)
2. summary (Generate summary)
3. translate-content (Translate content)

Managing FlowCraft

Navigate to Worktable > FlowCraft to create and manage FlowCrafts. The editor allows you to add AtomCrafts and arrange their execution order. Use arrow buttons (⬆️/⬇️) to adjust the order, or the trash icon to remove them from the flow.

Recipe

Recipe binds a specific RSS source URL to an AtomCraft or FlowCraft. This allows you to create a persistent, customized feed URL.

Managing Recipes: Navigate to Worktable > Custom Recipe to manage all your created recipes.

• Create: Bind a new URL and craft.
• Preview: Click the preview button to verify the output directly in the built-in Feed Viewer.
• Copy Link: Click the copy icon to get the full subscription URL.

Example:

• Input URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/rss
• Processor: digest-and-translate (the workflow created above)
• Result: You get a new FeedCraft URL. Subscribe to it to get Hacker News with full text, summary, and translation.
