I Built a Personal Intelligence System That Curates GitHub and News for Me — Here's How It Works

A personal intelligence system that reads the news and scrapes GitHub for you, curates it with an LLM, and delivers it to your phone before you've finished your coffee. No dashboard. No login. Just three briefings, on a schedule you set.

The Problem

I'd already built TeachSim, a multi-agent system running on an LLM via OpenRouter, delivered entirely through Telegram, hosted on a budget VPS. Once that stack existed, the obvious question was what else it could power. The quickest win turned out to be information consumption itself.

The actual itch was how I was consuming news. Google had been pushing me daily feeds for years: algorithmically chosen, entirely passive. I never decided what showed up, I just scrolled what arrived. I wanted to try the opposite, same infrastructure, a completely different job. An LLM doing the choosing instead of an engagement optimized feed, for both the news I read and the open-source ecosystem I found increasingly interested to keep a tab on day to day.
