Non Human / User Authentication

Don't know if I'm just not search for the right keywords, but I'm hoping some one might be able to point me in the right direction for a tutorial or advice on how to use Acl with a REST type of authentication.   The specific case I'm trying to do is explained something like this...

• I create a "tasks" rss feed.  (available at something like [domain]/tasks/tasks/index.rss)
• This index method is Acl controlled 
• If I'm logged in as a user I can view the rss feed directly.
• If I'm logged in as a user and I view the feed with a feed aggregator / reader I cannot see it.
• I cannot see it because the aggregator is not passing the Acl check (even though its at the same domain installed in the same system)
• If I turn on allowedActions = 'index', the reader works
• How might I get the aggregator to pass authentication based on the user using the feed reader?  (because I want to manage permissions for viewing the feed in the same way that I manage permission to individual methods)
