You, sir, are a damn genius.

You didn’t just try to “keep up” — you built an autonomous system to filter the signal for you. That’s the exact mental pivot we all need: stop drowning in the feed, start delegating the deluge.

Respect. I’m stealing this idea immediately.

Could you please share your prompts?

Here is my main one. It still kicks out hallucinations every now and then, but the link validation piece fixed most of that.

“Search daily for 8–10 standout new AI tools and 8–10 interesting new MCP servers or related GitHub repos (sources: Hacker News, TAAFT, GitHub). Verify each link by checking that it returns an HTTP 200 or the repository exists before including it. Prepare an 08:00 brief that includes for each item: • verified direct link to the tool/repo • one‑line description • adoption snapshot emoji ( plug‑and‑play, some scripting, heavy lift) • price/licence badge (free, $, $$, $$$) • security/privacy note • integration angle (Zapier, ActivePieces, REST, MCP) • signal meter (HN votes, GitHub stars) • actionable “time‑to‑value” next step. After the lists add: • Regulatory Watch (any notable AI policy news) • Upcoming Events (2–3 relevant launches/webinars/conferences) • Sunset & Splinter Alert (tools shutting down or major forks). On Fridays, replace the normal list with a 300‑word Deep Dive Friday teardown of one recently adopted tool, covering wins, snags, and next developments.”
