If you're tracking Rust ecosystem updates, this pulls from Reddit r/rust, This Week in Rust, official blogs, and the Rust Foundation into a single digest. You can filter by day, week, or month. The smart part is the dual execution mode: it tries to spawn a dedicated agent if available, otherwise falls back to direct scraping with agent-browser or WebFetch. The tool chain is well thought out, checking actionbook cache first to avoid redundant fetches. Output is clean markdown tables grouped by source category. It won't replace your RSS reader, but it's solid for ad-hoc "what happened in Rust this week" queries without opening ten tabs.

Fetch Rust community updates, filtered by time range.
| Category | Sources |
|---|---|
| Ecosystem | Reddit r/rust, This Week in Rust |
| Official | blog.rust-lang.org, Inside Rust |
| Foundation | rustfoundation.org (news, blog, events) |
time_range: day | week | month (default: week)category: all | ecosystem | official | foundationCRITICAL: Check agent file availability first to determine execution mode.
Try to read: ../../agents/rust-daily-reporter.md
When ../../agents/rust-daily-reporter.md exists:
1. Read: ../../agents/rust-daily-reporter.md
2. Task(subagent_type: "general-purpose", run_in_background: false, prompt: <agent content>)
3. Wait for result
4. Format and present to user
When agent file is NOT available, execute each source directly:
# Using agent-browser CLI
agent-browser open "https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/hot/"
agent-browser get text ".Post" --limit 10
agent-browser close
Or with WebFetch fallback:
WebFetch("https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/hot/", "Extract top 10 posts with scores and titles")
Parse output into:
| Score | Title | Link |
|---|
# Check actionbook first
mcp__actionbook__search_actions("this week in rust")
mcp__actionbook__get_action_by_id(<action_id>)
# Then fetch
agent-browser open "https://this-week-in-rust.org/"
agent-browser get text "<selector_from_actionbook>"
agent-browser close
Parse output into:
agent-browser open "https://blog.rust-lang.org/"
agent-browser get text "article" --limit 5
agent-browser close
Or with WebFetch fallback:
WebFetch("https://blog.rust-lang.org/", "Extract latest 5 blog posts with dates and titles")
Parse output into:
| Date | Title | Summary |
|---|
agent-browser open "https://blog.rust-lang.org/inside-rust/"
agent-browser get text "article" --limit 3
agent-browser close
Or with WebFetch fallback:
WebFetch("https://blog.rust-lang.org/inside-rust/", "Extract latest 3 posts with dates and titles")
# News
agent-browser open "https://rustfoundation.org/media/category/news/"
agent-browser get text "article" --limit 3
agent-browser close
# Blog
agent-browser open "https://rustfoundation.org/media/category/blog/"
agent-browser get text "article" --limit 3
agent-browser close
# Events
agent-browser open "https://rustfoundation.org/events/"
agent-browser get text "article" --limit 3
agent-browser close
After fetching all sources, filter by time range:
| Range | Filter |
|---|---|
| day | Last 24 hours |
| week | Last 7 days |
| month | Last 30 days |
After fetching all sources, combine into the output format below.
Both modes use the same tool chain order:
actionbook MCP - Check for cached/pre-fetched content first
mcp__actionbook__search_actions("rust news {date}")
mcp__actionbook__search_actions("this week in rust")
mcp__actionbook__search_actions("rust blog")
agent-browser CLI - For dynamic web content
agent-browser open "<url>"
agent-browser get text "<selector>"
agent-browser close
WebFetch - Fallback if agent-browser unavailable
| Source | Primary Tool | Fallback |
|---|---|---|
| agent-browser | WebFetch | |
| TWIR | actionbook → agent-browser | WebFetch |
| Rust Blog | actionbook → WebFetch | - |
| Foundation | actionbook → WebFetch | - |
