poetry install

you can then run the program as needed

# parse feeds and update the database
poetry run python actions/feedParser.py

# run in dry-run mode (no database writes)
poetry run python actions/feedParser.py --dry-run

# sync cache with database (use with caution)
poetry run python actions/feedParser.py --sync-db

# validate cache against database
poetry run python actions/validateCache.py

# validate cache with detailed output
poetry run python actions/validateCache.py --verbose

# reconcile cache with database
poetry run python actions/validateCache.py --reconcile
