# Quick Alert Creation Guide
## Fastest Method: Manual Creation
You're right - manual creation is faster than automated clicking!
### Step 1: Create Alerts Manually
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"
- Click delivery dropdown → Select "RSS feed"
- Click "Create Alert"
- Repeat for next query
### Step 2: Extract All RSS Feeds (One Batch)
After creating all alerts:
1. **Open browser console** on https://www.google.com/alerts (F12)
2. **Copy and paste** the code from `scripts/extract-rss-from-page.js`
3. **Press Enter** - JSON will be copied to clipboard
4. **Update rss-feeds.json**:
```bash
# Paste the JSON output here, then:
echo '<paste-json-here>' | python3 scripts/update-rss-feeds.py
```
This extracts ALL RSS feeds at once - no clicking needed!
## Current Status
- Created: Check `rss-feeds.json`
- Remaining: `queries_to_create.txt` (166 queries)
