SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Planning a day often collapses into a task list that ignores how you want to feel and neglects whole areas of life like fitness, relationships, or rest. This Skill runs a short structured morning ritual that turns calendar events, reminders, emails, and personal notes into a day plan balanced across the areas of your life. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Context Gathering: Silently pulls today's Google Calendar events, incomplete reminders, recent Gmail urgencies, and a persistent Google Doc named Daily Planning Notes before the conversation starts. - Guided Conversation: Runs a four-beat dialogue (feelings check-in, first read of the day, shaping the day, mandatory balance check) with one reflection plus one question per turn. - Balanced Plan Output: Drafts a plan with a poetic opening, agenda, per-area time shares including explicit "nothing today" lines, and verbatim reproduction of the notes doc sections. - Use Case: A user says "plan my day" and, within 5-10 minutes, receives a markdown plan showing work gets most of the day by choice, fitness gets the morning, and friendships gets nothing, plus a reflective Question of the Day drawn from their own notes doc. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to plan your day using the daily planning ritual with your calendar, reminders, and Daily Planning Notes doc.

Frequently Asked Questions about daily-planning-ritual

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I plan my day with an AI assistant using my calendar and reminders?▼

Ask to plan your day and the skill silently fetches today's Google Calendar events, incomplete reminders, and recent Gmail urgencies, then runs a short conversation ending in a balanced plan. The whole ritual takes about 5-10 minutes.

How do I customize the daily planning ritual without editing the skill?▼

Create a Google Doc named Daily Planning Notes and edit its sections freely. The skill reads whatever sections the doc contains and reproduces them verbatim in each plan, so renaming, adding, removing, or reordering sections changes your next plan automatically.

What connectors does the daily planning skill require?▼

It uses Google Calendar, Gmail, Google Drive, and Reminders MCP connectors to gather context. Any unavailable source is skipped and the gap is noted in the plan, so the ritual still works with partial access.

Can I define my own life areas for daily planning?▼

Yes. Add a section to the Daily Planning Notes doc with a heading like Areas or Dimensions listing your areas, and it replaces the default set of work, life projects, relationships, friendships, self, and fitness in your order and wording.

What happens if the Daily Planning Notes doc is not found?▼

The skill mentions the missing doc once, briefly explains that it is how you customize the ritual, and continues without the persistent sections. The Question of the Day step is skipped rather than inventing a question.
