What's New

AI-Generated Story Headlines

Multi-article stories now get a wire service style headline generated by Ollama — who/what/where in one line, 15 words max. Headlines are generated automatically when a second article is added to a story, and during Ollama Catchup for existing grouped stories. Single-article stories continue to use the auto-generated title from the first article.

Single-Article Story Filter

A toggle on the main page lets you hide single-article stories and focus only on stories covered by multiple outlets — the most newsworthy content. Default is off so nothing changes unless you enable it.

Logging Cleanup

All print() statements across the news_fetcher modules have been replaced with Python's logging module, making log output cleaner and properly leveled (INFO, WARNING, ERROR).

Known Limitations

  • Story grouping quality still being tuned — some unrelated articles may be grouped together
  • No authentication — do not expose to the internet
