SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Consolidates scattered start-of-day information from multiple work tools so users do not have to manually check calendars, chat mentions, and task trackers before beginning work. It reduces context switching and surfaces immediate priorities, overdue items, and reply-needed messages in a single structured report.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Cross-service aggregation: Collects today's events from Google Calendar, recent mentions and DMs from Slack, and notifications and assigned issues from Backlog.
  • Graceful fallback and error handling: Automatically skips services that are not connected and reports which sources were unavailable rather than failing the briefing.
  • Actionable summary and highlights: Produces a Markdown-formatted briefing with a schedule table, Slack notification summary, Backlog task list, and a generated "Today's Points" prioritized checklist for what to act on first.
  • Use case: A team member asks for a morning briefing and receives the day's meetings, urgent tasks, and pending Slack replies with clear next actions.

Quick Start

Ask the agent for a morning briefing by saying Give me today's schedule, Slack mentions, and Backlog tasks.

Does the daily briefing work with Google Calendar, Slack, and Backlog simultaneously?▼

Yes, the daily briefing works with Google Calendar, Slack, and Backlog simultaneously. It queries MCP tools for calendar events, runs mention-based Slack searches, and executes Backlog CLI commands to collect notifications and assigned issues for start-of-day decision making.

What are the limitations of aggregating task notifications and calendar events into a morning briefing?▼
