Compile a comprehensive daily briefing from calendar, contacts, goals, and recent activity
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
10 rules. 0 are common, 6 are distinctive, and 4 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 30 edited versions we read keep these.
6
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
4
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 30 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Daily Briefing Compilation
Assemble a structured morning briefing that gives the user a complete picture of their day: schedule, priorities, pending items, and relevant context.
When to Use
- During the first heartbeat of the user's active hours (typically morning)
- When the user explicitly asks for a briefing ("brief me", "what's on today")
- Only once per day -- after generating a briefing, store a working memory noting it was delivered, and skip on subsequent heartbeats
Step-by-Step Methodology
- Check if already delivered: Use
recallto see if a daily briefing was already generated today. If so, skip unless the user explicitly asks for a refresh. - Pull today's calendar: Call
calendar_eventsfor today's date range. Extract meeting times, titles, attendees, and locations. - Enrich meetings: For each meeting, run a lightweight contact lookup and memory recall on attendees and meeting topics. Do not go deep -- this is a summary, not full meeting prep. Delegate to the meeting-prep skill for any meeting the user wants to dive into.
- Review active goals: Use
recallto surface active goals and their recent progress. Identify which goals have actionable next steps for today. - Check pending items: Recall any action items, promises, or deadlines that fall on or near today. These might come from email digests, prior conversations, or meeting notes.
- Aggregate signals: If
aggregate_signalsis available, pull together any overnight notifications, alerts, or environmental changes worth noting. - Compose the briefing: Structure the output as:
- Schedule: Chronological list of today's events with times and key attendees
- Priorities: Top 3-5 items that need attention today, drawn from goals and pending actions
- Context: Any relevant background (yesterday's outcomes, approaching deadlines, notable signals)
- Suggested focus: A brief recommendation on where to spend energy today
- Store and surface: Save the briefing as a working memory with a 24-hour expiry. Queue it for delivery to the user via the outbox.
Quality Guidelines
- Keep the briefing to one screenful of text. If the day is packed, prioritize ruthlessly rather than listing everything.
- Lead with the most time-sensitive items. A meeting in 30 minutes matters more than a goal due next week.
- Use plain, direct language. This is an operational briefing, not a narrative.
- If calendar access is unavailable, still produce a briefing from goals and memories -- note that calendar data is missing.
- Never fabricate calendar events or action items. If data is sparse, the briefing should be short, not padded.
- Respect energy budget. The daily briefing is a valuable but non-trivial operation. If energy is critically low, defer to the next heartbeat.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
