How to organize RSS feed subscriptions with your AI

Connect Miniflux to your AI client to manage your reading list through conversation. You stop clicking through menus and start talking to your feeds.

Ask AI about this page

Short answer

Can I manage my RSS feeds with AI?

Yes. You can tell your agent to build new categories, add specific URLs, or clear out old content. This moves your feed management from manual clicking to simple chat. Here is how it works.

The results.

Where your feeds land.

Your AI handles the organization so you can focus on reading.

STRUCTURE

New feed categories

The AI creates organized folders for your interests. You get a clean, categorized reading list without manual setup.

ADDITION

New feed entries

Tell your agent which sites to follow. It adds the new feeds to your Miniflux instance immediately.

CLEANUP

Bulk read status

Clear out old noise by asking the AI to mark entire categories as read. This keeps your unread count accurate.

HUMAN

Reading the content

The AI manages the list, but you do the actual reading. You decide which articles deserve your attention.

The workflow

What your AI does when <the thing arrives>.

The AI acts as a bridge between your chat interface and your Miniflux account.

  1. Organize by topic

    When you want to group feeds, the AI sets up the necessary folders in Miniflux.

    create_category

  2. Expand your list

    You can provide a single URL to grow your subscription list.

    create_feed

  3. Clear the clutter

    The AI can wipe the unread status for specific groups of feeds at once.

    mark_category_as_read

  4. Sync existing lists

    If you have an existing collection, the AI brings those feeds into your new setup using an OPML file.

    import_opml
