Key capabilities

  • Fetch Rust community updates
  • Filter updates by day, week, or month
  • Aggregate news from Reddit r/rust
  • Collect information from official Rust blogs
  • Gather news from the Rust Foundation
  • Format results into a structured report

How it works

The skill fetches Rust community updates from various sources like Reddit, official blogs, and the Rust Foundation, then filters them by the specified time range.

Inputs & outputs

You give it
A time range (day, week, or month) and an optional category (all, ecosystem, official, or foundation)
You get back
A formatted report with Rust news from specified sources, filtered by the given time range

When to use rust-daily

  • Get weekly Rust news
  • Summarize latest Rust updates
  • Check Reddit r/rust top posts

About this skill

Rust Daily Report

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

Fetch Rust community updates, filtered by time range.

Data Sources

CategorySources
EcosystemReddit r/rust, This Week in Rust
Officialblog.rust-lang.org, Inside Rust
Foundationrustfoundation.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:

ScoreTitleLink

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:

DateTitleSummary

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:

RangeFilter
dayLast 24 hours
weekLast 7 days
monthLast 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

SourcePrimary ToolFallback
Redditagent-browserWebFetch
TWIRactionbook → agent-browserWebFetch
Rust Blogactionbook → WebFetch-
Foundationactionbook → 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

ErrorCauseSolution
Agent file not foundSkills-only installUse inline mode
agent-browser unavailableCLI not installedUse WebFetch
Site timeoutNetwork issuesRetry once, then skip source
Empty resultsSelector mismatchReport and use fallback

When not to use it

  • When the agent file `../../agents/rust-daily-reporter.md` is not available and the user expects agent mode execution
  • When fetching news pages using WebSearch
  • When using Chrome MCP directly

Limitations

  • The skill does not use WebSearch for fetching news pages
  • The skill does not use Chrome MCP directly
  • The skill will report 'No updates' if a source has no results

How it compares

This skill aggregates and formats Rust news from multiple community and official sources into a single report, unlike manually checking each source individually.
