"""Automated threat-intelligence scan service.
Searches public security RSS feeds for mentions of MITRE ATT&CK technique
IDs and names. New findings are stored as :class:`IntelItem` records and
the related technique is flagged for review.
This is an **MVP** implementation — it queries a small set of well-known
RSS feeds and parses them with the standard-library :mod:`xml.etree`
parser. No LLMs or paid APIs are used.
