README

claudenews — DevFeed for Claude Code

**Switching to another task while Claude works costs you context. Just staring at the terminal is boring.** claudenews fills those short waits with dev news — so the idle time isn't wasted and you never lose your place.

_Claude가 다른 명령을 처리하는 동안 다른 일을 하자니 컨텍스트 스위칭 비용이 들고, 터미널만 보고 있자니 심심하셨죠? 그 짧은 시간을 개발 뉴스로 채우고, 흐름은 그대로 유지하세요._

A Claude Code plugin that surfaces **Hacker News**, **GitHub Trending**, and per-language dev & news sources in the status line during agent wait time — auto-translated into your OS language, with short summaries that fade in as Claude fetches them in the background.

The title is a clickable link, `▲` score / `💬` comments show for HN items, and the trailing hint rotates through the commands (dropped automatically if the terminal is too narrow). Korean / Japanese / Chinese users see the **same item** auto-translated — no configuration:

Install (30 seconds)

Inside Claude Code:

/plugin marketplace add bhpark1013/claudenews
/plugin install claudenews@claudenews
/reload-plugins
/claudenews:setup

`/reload-plugins` activates the hooks and slash commands without a full restart. Then restart Claude Code once so the status line takes effect — the next time the agent thinks, a news item rotates in.

Why you might want this

  • No API key. Translation and summary use your existing Claude Code session (Haiku, background-priced). No OpenAI key, no separate billing.
  • Auto-detects your OS language. macOS AppleLocale, then $LANG, then Python locale. Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Spanish, etc. all work without configuration. English users get titles untranslated.
  • Coexists with your existing status line. OMC HUD, git status, custom scripts — point at them via parentStatusLine in ~/.claudenews/config.json and c
