# Daily Digest

Aggregates your daily news feed and filters emails intelligently using the Claude Batch API. Processes large volumes of content asynchronously, surfacing only what matters to you — with the cost efficiency of batch processing.

❯cat daily-digest/ARCHITECTURE.md

## How It Works

At run time, the agent fetches news sources and emails, bundles them into a single Batch API request, and waits for Claude to process them asynchronously. Batch processing costs 50 % less than the standard API. When results are ready, the agent ranks items by relevance and generates a concise daily digest.
