So what is it?

This is an automated daily cybersecurity news digest. Every day at noon, an AI-driven workflow scans the current day's security news, picks out five to ten items worth paying attention to, and publishes them as a formatted HTML page on GitHub Pages. The goal is to help security-minded people keep up with what is happening without having to sift through dozens of sources themselves. Each published report is divided into a few sections. The top headline covers the most significant event of the day, often with an explanation of how an attack worked. A deeper analysis section covers three to six items in more detail, including vulnerability identifiers (CVE numbers), severity scores, how a flaw works, and how it could be exploited. A quick-glance section summarizes two to four additional items in a single sentence each. Charts are included where they help, using a tool called Mermaid to draw things like flow diagrams, timelines, and pie charts. Every item links back to its original source so readers can dig further if they want. The pages are plain HTML and CSS with no external framework, styled to look like a newspaper with a dark background and warm tones. The site works on mobile and can be printed. The automation is handled by a scheduling tool called WorkBuddy, which runs the full pipeline daily: search, filter, write, generate HTML, update the archive index, and push to the repository. GitHub Pages then picks up the new commit and publishes it automatically. The project is MIT licensed and the live site is publicly readable.
