Daily Digest

Generates a concise daily briefing by reading journal entries, project data, and open tasks to surface the highest-priority items.

Instructions

Step 1: Read recent journal entries

Read your journal file (JSONL format) — last 7 days of entries.

Step 2: Gather project state

For each active project, check:

• Open action_items from brainstorm entries
• Pending next_steps from progress entries
• Unresolved decisions older than 14 days
• Any predictions past their resolution date

Step 3: Generate the digest

Structure as follows:

Priority Tasks

• Pull action_items from recent brainstorms and next_steps from progress
• Group by project
• Highlight time-sensitive or blocking items

Overdue Items

• Predictions past resolution date without outcome
• Projects with 0 entries in 7+ days
• Old unresolved decisions

Pattern Alerts

• Same anti-pattern appearing 2+ times this week
• Decisions without reflections in any project
• Projects with lots of brainstorms but no progress entries (ideas without execution)

Step 4: Deliver as concise pulse

10-15 lines maximum. Lead with the most actionable items. Skip empty sections — don't generate noise.

Example Output

Daily Digest — Mar 9, 2026

PRIORITY TASKS:
- [my-app] Fix response verbosity — logging when user asked for advice
- [tools] Finish remaining edge analyses
- [research] Test autoresearch repo

OVERDUE:
- Prediction "50 users by March" resolves this week — no outcome logged

PATTERNS:
- 4 projects touched this week, 3 went dark
- my-app has 5 brainstorms, 0 progress entries — shipping gap

Customization

Edit the project list and journal path to match your setup. The digest format is intentionally minimal — extend the sections if you need more detail.
