Notes

• Powered by Google News RSS feeds — no scraping bans, no CAPTCHAs, no proxies needed
• Articles are deduplicated by GUID across multiple queries
• sentiment uses rule-based keyword scoring — fast and lightweight, not ML-based
• extractFullText fetches the source article page; may fail for paywalled content
• Google News RSS returns up to ~100 articles per query (latest news only)
• For historical news archive, combine with minPublishedHoursAgo filtering
