Summarize new RSS items with Gemini and post to Slack

How this automation works

Summarize new RSS items into short, team-ready digests. When a new feed item appears, the Applet sends its title and content to Gemini to generate a concise summary, then posts that summary to a Slack channel. This is useful for teams who want timely article highlights from blogs or news feeds using Gemini and Slack. Note: Customize the message to fit your tone.
