Questions about this workflow
Can I ask for a specific category?
The selected action is documented to retrieve the latest articles. Do not assume it filters by category unless the connected action supports that option.
Will the brief include every story?
It summarizes the articles returned by the latest news action, so it may not cover every current story.
