What problem does it solve?
You want a concise Rust news pulse but bouncing between Reddit, TWIR, and foundation blogs eats your planning time.
Who is it for?
Rust-curious or active solo devs who want agent-gathered TWIR and official updates on a predictable cadence.
Skip if: Deep crate evaluation, production incident response, or teams that forbid browser automation against social sites.
When should I use this skill?

What do I get? / Deliverables
You get a formatted daily, weekly, or monthly Rust digest aligned to the requested category and time range.
- Time-filtered Rust news report formatted for the user
- Category-scoped digest (ecosystem, official, foundation)
Recommended Skills
Journey fit
Staying current on ecosystem news supports technology and dependency choices before you commit to a Rust build. Research is the natural shelf for news aggregation and TWIR-style scanning, not implementation or ship checks.
How it compares
News digest research skill—not a Rust linter, docs MCP, or crate security auditor.
