NewsBlur CLI

What it does

The NewsBlur CLI provides full command-line access to a user's NewsBlur account: list and search stories, view saved articles, manage feeds and folders, train intelligence classifiers, and generate AI-curated briefings. It supports JSON output for scripting and includes a readonly mode safe for automation and agent use.

When to use it

Use this skill when you want to automate reading workflows, fetch and filter stories from feeds, extract full article text for processing, generate daily briefings for summaries, or integrate NewsBlur actions in shell scripts and agent automations. Readonly mode makes it safe to expose to agents or CI.

What's included

• Scripts: none bundled in skill directory (has_scripts=false)
• References: no references directory (has_references=false)
• Instructions: setup and auth steps, examples for story listing/search, feed management, training classifiers, notification and account commands, and scripting examples showing how to pipe JSON output to jq and shell loops.

Compatible agents

Likely to work with command-line-capable agents and automation contexts (Copilot/Codex style automation, CLI-based agents, or any agent that can run shell/python and parse JSON output).
