What it does

Daily digest of AI releases from Anthropic, Meta, Vercel Labs, OpenAI and Google GitHub repos, the Claude Cowork changelog, the claude.dev blog and Hacker News, deduplicated against a local state file and sent by email. Use when the user asks for a daily AI news digest, to scan AI labs for new releases, or to set up a scheduled release-hunter job.

AI Release Hunter (Anthropic + Meta + Vercel + OpenAI + Google + Hacker News)

Scans the public AI repos of Anthropic, Meta, Vercel Labs, OpenAI and Google on GitHub, plus the Claude Cowork changelog, the claude.dev blog and Hacker News, and emails a digest of the day's relevant movements. Designed to run once a day as a scheduled job (cron, a Claude Code routine, or /loop).

Configuration

Set these before the first run. Every path is relative to the working directory unless you choose otherwise.

SettingDefaultPurpose
RECIPIENT_EMAIL(required)Address that receives the digest
SEND_COMMAND(required)Command that sends an email given a recipient, subject and body file (e.g. a Gmail CLI, mail or sendmail; to send through an MCP tool instead, add it to allowed-tools)
STATE_DIR.release-hunter/state/Deduplication state (seen.json)
SNAPSHOT_DIR.release-hunter/snapshots/Page snapshots (Vercel Labs, Cowork changelog)
OUTPUT_DIR.release-hunter/output/Email bodies and run logs
EMAIL_LANGUAGESpanishLanguage of the email
EMAIL_SUBJECTIA: novedades del día (Anthropic + Meta + Vercel + OpenAI + Google + Hacker News)Subject line
AUDIENCEthe user's audienceWho the "why it matters" lines are written for (e.g. a YouTube channel, a team)

Suggested schedule: daily at ~08:00 in the user's time zone.

Add .release-hunter/ to .gitignore so state, snapshots and email bodies are never committed. The scan makes well over 60 GitHub API calls per run, so a GITHUB_TOKEN is strongly recommended (see below).
