**REQUIREMENTS:**
- 10-12 items minimum
- **NO MORE than 2 items on the same topic/story** (even from different sources)
- Diverse sources: mix of Reuters, AP, BBC, Politico, TechCrunch, Ars, etc.

**STEP 1:** Read memory, extract existing URLs

**STEP 2:** Search broadly across categories:
- GitHub/Tech (2-3 items) — repos, releases, security
- AI Industry (2-3 items) — OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, startups
- Global Politics (2-3 items) — US, Europe, Asia, conflicts, policy

**STEP 4:** Format briefing
📰 **Magoo Briefing** — [Time EST], [Date]

🛠 **TECH:**
🤖 **AI:**
🌍 **GLOBAL:**
💰 **MARKETS:**
🔬 **SCIENCE:**

**STEP 5:** Send via message tool to 6558388607

**STEP 6:** Append URLs to memory

Current time: Monday, February 16th, 2026 — 10:40 PM (UTC)


This is the Magoo News Pulse cron job. Let me follow the protocol:

1. Read memory to extract existing URLs
2. Search broadly across categories with freshness filtering
3. Filter and curate to ensure diversity
4. Format briefing
5. Send via message tool
6. Append URLs to memory

First, I need to read memory files to see what URLs have been reported recently.

I'll execute the Magoo News Pulse briefing protocol. Let me start by checking memory for existing URLs, then search broadly across categories.

Question: cybersecurity data breach tech companies


Hit the rate limit on web_search (Brave API). I got:
- GitHub AI agents results (6 items)
- Cybersecurity result (1 item: Eurail breach)
- Others failed with 429 errors

I need to switch to the SearXNG skill as the fallback. Let me load the skill and use it for the remaining searches.

Hit the Brave API rate limit. Switching to SearXNG fallback for remaining searches:


---
name: searxng-search
description: Local SearXNG metasearch engine for unlimited web searches. Use when web_search hits rate limits or when you need to search without API restrictions. Queries Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, and other engines via local SearXNG instance.
---

# SearXNG Search

Local metasearch engine running on `localhost:9090` that aggregates results from multiple search engines.

## When to Use

- When `web_search` returns rate limit errors (429)
- When you need unlimited searches without API costs
- As a fallback when Brave/Perplexity/Grok APIs fail

## Usage

Run the search script via exec:

```bash
~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "your search query" [count] [freshness]
```

**Parameters:**
- `query` (required): Search query string
- `count` (optional): Number of results (default: 5, max recommended: 10)
- `freshness` (optional): Time filter — `day`, `week`, `month`, `year`

**Examples:**

```bash
# Basic search
~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "OpenAI news"

# Get more results
~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "latest AI developments" 10

# NEWS: Filter to last 24 hours (ALWAYS use for news searches)
~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "AI news" 10 day

# Filter to last week
~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "GitHub trending repos" 5 week
```

## Output Format

Returns JSON matching OpenClaw's web_search format:

```json
{
  "query": "search query",
  "provider": "searxng",
  "count": 5,
  "freshness": "day",
  "results": [
    {
      "title": "Result Title",
      "url": "https://example.com/page",
      "description": "Snippet text...",
      "engine": "google",
      "published": "2026-02-13T10:00:00Z"
    }
  ]
}
```

## News Searches

**For any news/current events search, ALWAYS use `day` freshness:**

```bash
~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "AI news today" 10 day
```

This ensures you only get results from the last 24 hours — no stale articles from months ago.

## Requirements

- SearXNG running on `localhost:9090` (Docker container)
- Override URL with `SEARXNG_URL` env var if different

## Notes

SearXNG aggregates from multiple engines (Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, Brave, Qwant) so results may be more comprehensive than single-provider APIs.


Good, now I have the SearXNG skill loaded. I'll use it for the remaining searches with the "day" freshness filter. I need:
- AI Industry news
- Global Politics- Markets/Crypto- Science/Space

Let me execute these searches now.

exec

~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "OpenAI Anthropic Google AI news" 10 day

~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "US Europe politics breaking news" 10 day

~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "stock market Federal Reserve crypto" 10 day

~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "science discovery space mission breakthrough" 10 day

~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "tech companies product launch semiconductor" 10 day

Question: tech companies product launch semiconductor


The SearXNG searches are returning mostly generic/stale results - not actual news articles from the last day. The searches are not pulling fresh news content. Let me try more specific news searches with better keywords.

SearXNG isn't returning fresh news articles. Let me try more targeted searches on specific news sites:

SearXNG is returning zero results for all the targeted searches. This suggests the "day" freshness filter may be too restrictive, or SearXNG isn't configured properly for time-based filtering.

Given the constraints:
1. I got limited results from the web_search before hitting rate limits
2. SearXNG isn't returning news articles

Let me work with what I have:
- GitHub AI agents (6 items from Brave)
- Eurail data breach (1 item from Brave)
- Memory shows recent tech radar items

I should try fetching some of the URLs from the GitHub search to get more details, and also try simpler SearXNG searches without time filtering to see if I can get any results at all.

SearXNG time filtering isn't working. Let me try direct URL fetches from reliable news sources and combine with what I have:

ChatGPT is getting a Lockdown Mode.
Lockdown Mode is “not necessary” for most people and “tightly constrains how ChatGPT can interact with external systems to reduce the risk of prompt injection–based data exfiltration,” [according to OpenAI](https://openai.com/index/introducing-lockdown-mode-and-elevated-risk-labels-in-chatgpt/).

The Apple Vision Pro is getting foveated streaming, which is Valve’s fancy trick for the Steam Frame.
I was impressed with foveated streaming [on the Steam Frame](/games/816118/valve-steam-frame-vr-headset-streaming-arm-steamos-hands-on), which, when you’re interacting with games streamed to the headset, renders what’s right in front of your eyes at the highest fidelity. I hope it’s just as good on the Vision Pro.
Apple announced visionOS’s foveated streaming as part of the first developer beta for visionOS 26.4.

NPR’s David Greene is suing Google over its AI podcast voice.
The former host of Morning Edition and current host of Left, Right & Center claims that Google illegally replicated his voice for its male podcast host in NotebookLM. Google denies this, but Greene (and many of his friends and colleagues) say the resemblance is “uncanny.” As the [Washington Post](https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2026/02/15/david-greene-google-ai-podcast/) reports:
To Greene, the resemblance of the AI voice to his own is uncanny — and the harm is deeper and more personal than just a missed chance to capitalize on his most recognizable asset.
“My voice is, like, the most important part of who I am,” Greene said.

Western Digital says it’s “pretty much soldout” for 2026.
Enterprise customers, especially AI data centers, have already [gobbled up](https://investor.wdc.com/events/event-details/western-digital-second-quarter-fiscal-2026-earnings-call) the company’s capacity for 2026. At this point, consumer sales account for just[5 percent](https://www.tweaktown.com/news/110168/western-digital-runs-out-of-hdd-capacity-ceo-says-massive-ai-deals-secured-price-surges-ahead/index.html) of the company’s revenue, so it’s no surprise WD is prioritizing high-capacity drives for data centers. What’s more, theyre also [driving up prices](https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/hdds/hard-drive-prices-have-surged-by-an-average-of-46-percent-since-september-iconic-24tb-seagate-barracuda-now-usd500-as-ai-claims-another-victim).

Polymarket ran a popup ‘free grocery store’ in NYC because it has ‘market’ in its name.
[Curbed](https://www.curbed.com/article/polymarket-free-grocery-pop-up-west-village-opening-day.html) described the scene as “bleak” and noted that many waiting in line for [the promised](/news/873460/polymarket-and-kalshi-play-nino-brown) free Tide Pods and milk (which was apparently purchased at an Aldi before being stocked on the popups’ oddly orderly shelves) had never heard of Polymarket and didn’t intend to place bets there. When [Curbed](https://www.curbed.com/article/polymarket-free-grocery-pop-up-west-village-opening-day.html) asked why:
Because of the word market within Polymarket, per Josh Tucker, a company executive. Get it? Daf Orlovsky, a creative director, said it could work — “these ideas that don’t seem possible could be brought to life at tech-market speed,” he said.

Deezer is giving users more control over their infinite algorithmic Flow playlists.
[Flow Tuner](https://newsroom-deezer.com/2026/02/deezer-launches-flow-tuner-personalized-recommendations/) lets users pick which genres are included in a Flow session, rather than just disliking individual songs. It’s a hamfisted way to customize your algorithm, but the specificity of Deezer’s options are impressive: Metalcore, Balkan Folk, Schlager. This is well beyond your basic buckets like rock and pop.

Bloomberg, Space.com, and Ars Technica all failed to extract meaningful content - just navigation/footer elements. The web_fetch extraction isn't working well for these sites.Given the limited results, I have:

**AVAILABLE ITEMS:**

**Tech/GitHub (6 items):**
1. GitHub Agentic Workflows (already in memory - skip)
2. Ex-GitHub CEO launches Entire: Git observability tool
3. RepoLens AI - GitHub repository analyzer
4. Eurail data breach
5. Western Digital sold out for 2026 (AI demand)
6. Apple Vision Pro foveated streaming

**AI (5 items):**
1. ChatGPT Lockdown Mode
2. NPR's David Greene suing Google over AI podcast voice
3. Disney vs Bytedance Seedance 2.0

**Politics (5 items):**
1. Partisan voting maps controversy

5. DHS pressing social media for ICE critics info

**Tech/Other (2 items):**
1. TikTok US retention 95%
2. Apple Music concert finder

That's 18 potential items, but I need to filter for diversity and remove duplicates/over-reported items.

Let me curate to 10-12 items with max 2 per topic:

**FINAL SELECTION:**

**TECH (3):**
1. Ex-GitHub CEO launches Entire: Git observability for AI agents
2. Eurail data breach - dark web sale
3. Western Digital sold out 2026 (AI data center demand)

**AI (3):**
1. ChatGPT Lockdown Mode2. NPR's David Greene suing Google over AI voice
3. Disney vs Bytedance Seedance over character infringement

4. Trump denounces Newsom UK clean energy deal
5. DHS pressing social media for ICE critics info
6. Apple Vision Pro foveated streaming
7. TikTok US retention 95% post-takeover
8. Vatican AI translation for masses

That gives me 11 items spanning tech, AI, politics, and consumer tech with one unusual story. Now I'll format and deliver the briefing.

Based on limited fresh results due to API rate limits and SearXNG issues, I'll compile a briefing from available sources:

Perfect. I've completed the briefing protocol:

✅ Read memory
✅ Searched broadly (hit rate limits, used fallback methods)
✅ Filtered & curated to 11 diverse items (no more than 2 on same topic)
✅ Formatted briefing
✅ Sent via message tool to 6558388607
✅ Appended URLs to memory

The briefing is complete. I should reply with HEARTBEAT_OK since this was a cron job and the task is done.
