What it does

Morning preparation. Calendar lookahead, meeting context loading, open threads from yesterday, active task review. Extends briefing with actionable prep.

Daily Task Prep

Contract

This skill guarantees:

  • Calendar/meetings for today are loaded with brain context per attendee
  • Open threads from yesterday are surfaced
  • Active tasks reviewed with priority ordering
  • Prep briefing is actionable (not just informational)

Phases

  1. Load calendar. Check today's meetings. For each: load attendee brain pages, recent timeline, open threads.
  2. Check yesterday's threads. When google sources exist, gbrain waiting --json is the real data source for open threads and unanswered items, prefer it over prose heuristics (it carries loop rows with counterparty, due date, and evidence; see skills/google-loops/SKILL.md). Otherwise, search brain for yesterday's timeline entries. Flag anything unresolved.
  3. Review active tasks. Load ops/tasks from brain. Surface P0 and P1 items.
  4. Compile prep briefing. Per-meeting context cards + open threads + task priorities.

Output Format

Morning Prep, {date}
======================
Meetings today: {N}

## {Meeting 1 title} at {time}
Attendees: {names with brain context}
Context: {recent interactions, open threads}
Prep: {what to know before this meeting}

## Open Threads
- {thread from yesterday, with context}

## Tasks (P0-P1)
- {task with priority}

When it fails

Follow the agent operator protocol for any gbrain error code, exit code, [AGENT] block or notice block. Specific to this skill:

  • gbrain waiting refuses on stale data: run (or ask the user to run) the sync it names, then retry; do not prep from stale mail.
  • Meeting-context searches return nothing with a degraded notice: say the brain is searching keywords only right now, instead of "no prior context".

Anti-Patterns

  • Listing meetings without loading attendee context from brain
  • Ignoring yesterday's unresolved threads
  • Presenting tasks without priority ordering
