Input
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
topic | string | programming | Medium topic tag (e.g. programming, ai, technology, blockchain) |
maxResults | integer | 10 | Max articles (1-50) |
fetchDetails | boolean | true | Fetch article pages for actual clap counts and reading time (slower but richer) |
How it works
Two-phase extraction:
- RSS feed (
medium.com/feed/tag/{topic}) — returns structured XML with titles, authors, tags, dates, and summaries. Fast and not blocked by anti-bot. - Article pages (one HTTP request per article) — extracts actual clap counts and reading time from the article HTML.
Use cases
- Content curation for newsletters
- Trend analysis in tech topics
- Competitive research
- Building reading lists by topic
- Monitoring new articles in your niche
