Flow
- Cron fires isolated agentTurn
- Agent searches web for news (4 searches: finance, AI, Benzinga, The Verge)
- Filters out junk content
- Selects 6-8 most important items (mix finance + AI)
- Formats into briefing block
- Agent's response auto-delivers to Telegram via announce delivery mode
Dedup (within single run)
Built into agent prompt: "Filter OUT personal finance, crypto, forex, NFT, spam" — implicit dedup via web search result freshness.
News pending (legacy)
Old flow used news-pending/ directory with curated-news.py fetching RSS at 7:30am. Replaced by direct web search in agentTurn crons. No longer in use.
