SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill turns scattered signals from your day into one compact, prioritized work brief so you can quickly see what needs attention first without manually checking calendars, inboxes, repos, or task lists.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Morning prioritization: Collects today’s calendar, unread email, unfinished local git work, open tasks, and optional radar topics to produce a single ranked summary.
  • Graceful fallback: Works even when some sources are unavailable, degrading cleanly instead of blocking the brief.
  • Carry-over awareness: If configured to save briefs, it compares yesterday’s focus items against today’s evidence and carries unfinished work forward.

Quick Start

Ask for a daybrief for today, optionally telling it to skip email or focus on repos, and it will return a prioritized morning brief with your top three actions and timing guidance.

FAQPage Schema
How do I get a prioritized daily work brief from my calendar, email, and git activity?

A daily briefing synthesizes calendar events, unread email, local git activity, and open tasks into a single ranked summary. It provides your top three actions and timing guidance for morning planning without manual checking.

Can I generate a morning prioritization summary if my Google calendar or GitHub tools are unavailable?

You can still generate a morning prioritization summary if Google calendar or GitHub tools are unavailable. The Skill features graceful fallback, degrading cleanly and handling missing sources resiliently instead of blocking the brief.

How does the daily briefing handle unfinished tasks from yesterday?

The daily briefing handles unfinished tasks through carry-over awareness. If configured to save briefs, it compares yesterday’s focus items against today’s evidence and carries unfinished work forward into the current prioritized summary.

Do I need to grant write access to my local files for daily task prioritization?

You do not need write access for daily task prioritization. The Skill requires only read-only access to local files, along with optional Google MCP and GitHub tools, to collect and synthesize your work signals.

What is the best way to focus on repository activity instead of email during a quick catch-up?

The best way to focus on repository activity during a quick catch-up is to request a brief and tell it to skip email or focus on repos. It will then prioritize local git work and open tasks over inbox items.
