em_filter agent for Atom feeds.
Reads a list of Atom feed URLs from `atom_config.json`, fetches each feed,
and returns entries whose title, link or summary matches the search query.
Handles Atom-specific structure: `<entry>` elements, `<link href="..."/>` attributes,
and `<summary>` / `<content>` bodies — distinct from RSS `<item>` / `<link>` / `<description>`.
## Setup
Rename `atom_config.json.sample` to `atom_config.json` and fill in your feed URLs:
```json
{
"atom_feeds": [
"https://example.com/feed.atom",
"https://another.com/feed.xml"
]
}
```
## Usage
Add `atom_filter` to your dependencies, then start it as an OTP application.
It registers itself with `em_disco` automatically on startup.
For a site-specific filter, create a wrapper application that copies its own
`priv/atom_config.json` to the working directory before starting `atom_filter`.
See `linuxfr_atom_filter` for a concrete example.
