Capcat is a python based CLI/TUI FOSS utility for Ethical archiving of given website or RSS source.

The github repo: https://github.com/stayukasabov/capcat

It is generated with NLP, context-engineering, spec-driven development and LLMs.

Fully functional at http://capcat.org, with instructions for usage and documentation.

The project started from my personal needs of simple archiving with structure and moved to product design/MVP exercise.

I am longtime HN user, and the most value I got in years of reading is always deep in the comments section.

For HN Capcat uses the official API, with rate-limits, identifies honesty with clear user agent and skips paywalled content. All usernames are anonymized with a link to the user profile.

The content is delivered in Markdown format (Obsidian ready with frontmatter) and optional HTML with dark/light themes. Every source has its own YAML config file for separate control and PDF size limiter. In the folder users have an option to change the HTML theme with a minimal CSS design-system.

Please consider that my focus as a product designer is in UX. I have enough of a general culture and software development principles but the code is not validated, and my decisions in building may have a limitation.

Feedback is welcomed. Thanks in advance.
