Its MIT license file records 2022 as the project copyright year. The README shows Matcha expanding from daily RSS digests into a personal information workflow: Google News keyword tracking, Instapaper bookmarking, weather, OPML import, terminal output, OpenAI-compatible summarization, and analyst/notification features. ### Adoption history Matcha's package-manager adoption is modest but cross-platform. The batch input records Homebrew, Nix, Scoop, Winget, and zypper packaging, which fits a small self-hosted personal productivity CLI with prebuilt binaries and Go install support. ### How it is used On first run, Matcha generates a `config.yaml` file and a Markdown digest in the same directory. Users edit feeds, Google News keywords, the Markdown output directory, OPML path, weather coordinates, and optional OpenAI-compatible settings; they can run it on demand or from cron. The config may contain credentials such as `openai_api_key` and notification webhook URLs, so the configuration file is also the credential-bearing file when those optional features are enabled. ### Why package nerds care Matcha is package-nerd-relevant as part of the newer wave of single-binary Go personal tools: it replaces a hosted feed reader with a local cron-friendly program and plain Markdown output. Its optional LLM features also show how small CLIs started bolting AI summary workflows onto older RSS habits. ### Timeline - 2022: Matcha's MIT license records the project copyright year. - 2025: GitHub release v0.9.0 is published. - 2020s: README-documented features include terminal mode, Markdown digests, OPML import, OpenAI-compatible summarization, and analyst notifications. ### Related projects - The README points web users to `piqoni/go-digest`. Matcha also overlaps with Obsidian-based personal knowledge workflows, OPML-based feed readers, local AI/OpenAI-compatible summarizers, and terminal RSS tools. ### Sources - - - - - source_facts.package-manager ## Security Notes narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger risk:** green / low - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Configuration and credential file locations These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials.
