WHAT IT DOES§ 01

Wake up to a 10-minute personal news show every morning. Curated AI/tech stories from overnight, narrated in a cloned voice, delivered as a Spotify episode with chapter markers and source-link companions per chapter — replaces the doom-scroll with something to listen to while making coffee.

HOW IT'S BUILT§ 02

A 6-stage pipeline pulls articles from a LAN-hosted RSS MCP, runs a two-pass summariser through local Qwen 3.6-35B (triage picks 5–9 stories, write pass narrates them), renders segment-level audio through OmniVoice, and uploads to Spotify. Triggered by Home Assistant at 05:00, monitored by Uptime Kuma with liveness and daily-run heartbeat checks. Docker Compose service on the Local LLM Stack.
