What they did
1) Tell Muse the built-in feed is too sparse, choose Hacker News and Techmeme plus a list of high-signal X accounts, and define inclusion and urgency criteria. 2) Have Muse build a custom artifact that scans those sources hourly, filters posts against the criteria, alerts on urgent items, and reads and summarizes items that pass the initial filter. 3) Use the artifact's searchable database to find the resulting summaries later.
How it went
The author says it was working well: it shortlisted posts each hour, summarized those that passed the filter, and stored them in a searchable artifact database.
Worth knowing
The author still wanted better post images and infographic polish. The attempted Discuss action did not work, and its intended behavior was unclear.
