Overview
A personal-automation script that keeps Readwise Reader feeds focused by auto-archiving, deleting or saving documents against filters defined in JSON.
Filters match on keyword, domain and author, with optional AI topic detection via the OpenAI API. Rules live in a GitHub Gist and the script runs hourly on GitHub Actions, with a dry-run mode for safe testing.
I built this to scratch my own itch: my Readwise Reader inbox kept filling with noise. It has run quietly on GitHub Actions and curated my feeds ever since.
