SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Starting the workday means manually checking email, calendar, chat, and issue trackers across multiple tools, then piecing together what actually needs attention. This Skill automates that morning review by pulling from all configured sources and consolidating everything into a single prioritized daily note. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Multi-source orchestration: Runs email triage, calendar review with timeboxing, and task collection from Slack, Jira, and Linear via parallel sub-agents. - Flexible execution modes: Supports quick mode for urgent items only, dry-run previews, source selection flags, and auto mode to skip confirmations. - Configurable behavior: Personality, working hours, timezone, and enabled integrations are controlled through plugin config and environment variables. - Use Case: A manager starts the day by running the full prep, which triages Gmail to inbox zero, suggests calendar timeblocks around meetings, collects open Jira tickets and Slack action items, and returns one summary with urgent items first. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to run your daily prep and consolidate everything that needs your attention today into your daily note.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate my morning routine across Gmail, Calendar, and Slack?▼

Run the daily-prep skill, which orchestrates sub-agents for email triage, calendar review with timeboxing, and task collection from Slack, Jira, and Linear. It returns one consolidated summary with urgent items first, then important items.

How do I run daily prep for only one source like email?▼

Use the --only-email flag to run just the Gmail triage section, or use --skip flags like --skip-calendar to exclude specific sources. The --quick flag limits output to urgent items with minimal interaction.

What MCP servers are required for daily workflow automation?▼

The Google Workspace MCP server is required for Gmail and Calendar features, with OAuth credentials set via environment variables. Slack, Atlassian, and Linear MCP servers are optional and enabled per feature in the plugin config.

Can I preview daily prep changes without creating calendar events?▼

Yes, use the --dry-run flag to preview the full prep without writing anything or creating calendar events. The --auto flag skips non-destructive confirmations when you are ready to run it for real.

Why is a disabled source still showing up in my daily prep?▼

Check that the relevant features.{source}.enabled value is set to false in your plugin config. Run the /init guided walkthrough to update your configuration, and verify MCP server status with /mcp if connections fail.
