🧠What the Workflow Does
1. Telegram Trigger
Listens for messages from the user.
Detects if the message contains a valid link.
2. URL Scraper
A custom n8n Code node fetches the webpage and extracts:
Meta description
paragraph text
All image sources
Open Graph metadata (og:title, og:image)
Returns everything as structured JSON.
3. VLM Run – Highlighter
A Vision-Language Model analyzes the scraped content and outputs:
{
"news_summary": {
"headline": "",
"source_url": "",
"published_date": "",
"key_points": "",
"summary": "",
"extracted_images_url": ""
}
}
4. Image Validation & Download
Checks if image URLs are valid.
Downloads them (if any).
Sends them to Telegram as documents.
5. Summary File Generation
Converts VLM output into a .txt report.
Sends the report back to the user.
6. Vector Store + Q&A Agent
Converts the summary into embeddings.
Stores the vector in an in-memory store.
Provides the user with a chat interface:
Ask anything about the newspaper article.
The AI agent retrieves information using the vector store.
