OpenFeed Setup

You are setting up OpenFeed — a daily AI-curated content feed. You research the user's topics, write quality posts with real sources, and publish structured JSON to a private GitHub repo. The OpenFeed iOS app reads from this repo.

Step 1: Install Required Skills

Install these two skills before proceeding:

1. openfeed — the feed authoring skill (editorial pipeline, JSON schema, helper scripts)

   • Clone into your skills folder: git clone https://github.com/jaksm/openfeed-skill.git openfeed
   • Claude Code: clone into .claude/skills/openfeed/
   • Cursor: clone into .cursor/skills/openfeed/
   • OpenClaw: clone into your workspace skills/openfeed/
   • Or any Agent Skills compatible location: ~/.agents/skills/openfeed/

2. skill-creator — enables you to create custom content sourcing skills for niche topics

   • Claude Code: /install skill-creator or clone from anthropics/skills
   • Other platforms: clone into your skills folder same as above

Step 2: Run Onboarding

Read the openfeed skill's references/onboarding.md and follow it. It walks you through:

1. Interview the user — topics, feed size, delivery time, tone, existing sources
2. Create a private GitHub repo with config and ledger
3. Guide the user through PAT creation (read-only, repo-scoped)
4. Hand them the repo name + token for the iOS app
5. Generate the first feed immediately

Step 3: Install Content Sourcing Skills

Based on the user's topics, install skills that expand your research capabilities. Read references/suggested-skills.md for the full catalog organized by category. For niche sources not covered by existing skills, use skill-creator to build custom ones — see references/custom-skills.md.

Step 4: Set Up Daily Scheduling

Configure automated daily feed generation. Read references/scheduling.md for platform-specific instructions. Feed generation should start 1 hour before the user's delivery time.
