Audit public RSS 2.0 and Atom 1.0 feeds before an automation, agent, publisher workflow or data pipeline relies on them. The Actor returns bounded, explainable feed-structure and freshness evidence: missing required fields, malformed entry metadata, duplicate identifiers, date problems and stale feeds.

For content teams, data analysts, automation builders, developers and agents that need a deterministic feed health check without an LLM, account, browser, paid API or persistent backend.

What it does

  • Reads 1–10 public feed URLs, at most 2 MB each, and checks 1–100 entries per feed.
  • Recognizes RSS 2.0 and Atom 1.0, including required feed and entry metadata.
  • Flags duplicate item identifiers, invalid supplied publication dates and configured freshness failures.
  • Produces one Dataset row per feed and a reconciled SUMMARY record.

Input

{"feedUrls":["https://hnrss.org/frontpage"],"maxItemsPerFeed":20,"maxStalenessDays":30}

Output

Each row contains the input URL, format, status, entries checked, missing fields, duplicate IDs, date evidence, latest publication timestamp, staleness result, severity and explainable evidence.

This is a bounded structural and freshness audit. It does not crawl linked articles, determine editorial quality, guarantee feed delivery, repair feeds or replace a full monitoring service.

Privacy

The Actor fetches only the public feed URLs provided in the input. It uses no login, LLM, browser automation, paid API or persistent backend.
