# Signal Pipeline

A marketing intelligence pipeline that aggregates signals from multiple sources, stores them in SQLite, and generates content for personal branding.

## What It Does

- **RSS feeds** → SQLite database (rss_db.py)
- **X/Twitter** → SQLite database (x_monitor.py)
- **Telegram channels** → SQLite database (telegram_monitor.py)
- **Gmail newsletters** → Signal extraction (newsletter_monitor.py)
- **Daily signals** → Draft posts
- **Weekly synthesis** → Theme analysis
- **Monthly deep-dive** → Essay/book chapter
