# Speaking

Use this for Peter's speaking-opportunity workflow.

Use `gog` first for Google data when available:

```bash
gog gmail search 'speaker OR keynote OR panel OR fireside OR conference OR summit after:2026-01-01' --json --no-input
gog gmail read <thread-or-message-id> --json --no-input
gog calendar events primary --time-min 2026-01-01T00:00:00Z --time-max 2026-12-31T23:59:59Z --json --no-input

```

## Scope

Track:

- conferences, summits, retreats, keynotes, panels, firesides, workshops, university talks, high-signal private rooms
- calendar holds that look like speaking commitments
- email invites where Peter expressed interest, declined, or needs to respond

Do not track in the conference list:

- podcasts
- press interviews
- generic networking dinners without a speaking/event ask
- vague intro calls with no event or audience

Talks and firesides are welcome. Do not delete them just because they are not classic conferences.

## Evaluation

Score with these heuristics:
