Perplexity

Semantic search over Miniflux (RSS Reader) data

Pipe `list_entries` output into a vector store to make your entire archive queryable. LlamaIndex treats your feed history as a searchable knowledge base. You can ask questions about past events and get answers grounded in the specific articles you have saved. It turns thousands of entries into a source of truth for your research.

Automated retrieval for LlamaIndex

Configure your index to pull fresh data via `refresh_feed` before running a query. This ensures your RAG pipeline never relies on stale information. The agent fetches the latest entries and updates the index in real-time. You always get the most recent context from your favorite sources.

Manage your reading list from LlamaIndex

Use `toggle_entry_bookmark` to flag articles that you want to keep for long-term reference. The agent marks these items, and your index can prioritize them in future searches. This keeps your most important research materials highlighted. You can later search specifically for bookmarked entries to isolate your high-signal content.
