What RIV news moves options pricing?

Routine news flow (analyst commentary, sector rotation) typically does not move IV meaningfully unless it triggers a cluster of rating changes.
How can I track unusual RIV options activity related to news?
Unusual options activity often precedes news by hours to days; the canonical signals are volume substantially above the trailing average concentrated in a small number of strikes, atypical put/call skew, and aggressive execution (at-the-ask sweeps or block prints).
