# Simple Workflow: Create Alerts → Extract RSS Feeds

## Step 1: Create Alerts (You Do This)

1. Go to https://www.google.com/alerts
2. For each query from `queries_to_create.txt`:
   - Click "Create an alert about..." textbox
   - Paste the query
   - Click "Show options"
   - Select "RSS feed" from delivery dropdown
   - Click "Create Alert"
   - Repeat for next query

**Fast tip:** Keep `queries_to_create.txt` open in a side window for easy copy-paste!

## Step 2: Extract All RSS Feeds (I Do This)

After you've created all alerts:

1. **Open browser console** on https://www.google.com/alerts (F12 or Cmd+Option+I)
2. **Copy the JavaScript** from `scripts/extract-rss-from-page.js`
3. **Paste and run** in console (press Enter)
4. **Copy the JSON output** from console
5. **Run this command:**
   ```bash
   echo '<paste-json-here>' | python3 scripts/extract-all-rss-batch.py
   ```

That's it! All RSS feeds will be saved to `rss-feeds.json`.
