?? CRITICAL: BRIEFING FORMAT (READ FIRST)

MANDATORY RULES

Why This Exists

Every morning you face the same questions:

• What's overdue?
• What's due today?
• What meetings do I have?
• What's the context I need to remember?

Instead of checking 5 different places, get one briefing.

|---|------|-------|--------|
| 5 | Review budget | @You | team-sync.md |

For the AI: How to Generate a Daily Briefing

When a user asks for a briefing, follow these steps.

Step 0: Pre-Flight Check

Before generating the briefing, confirm:

• [ ] Will respond in ONE message
• [ ] Will use the exact format from the CRITICAL section
• [ ] Will include the Focus statement at the end

Step 1: Gather Data Sources

Check for these files in order:

1. todo.md (to-do list from ai-meeting-notes)
2. meeting-notes/ folder (recent meeting notes)
3. MEMORY.md (if using ai-persona-os)
4. memory/[today].md (session notes)
5. Calendar integration (if available)

If no data sources exist:

No existing to-do list or meeting notes found.

Would you like me to:
? Create a to-do list? (just tell me your tasks)
? Process some meeting notes? (paste them here)
? Set up a simple priority list for today?

Step 2: Extract Overdue Items

From todo.md, find items in the "?? Overdue" section.

Display format:

Rules:

• Show max 5 items (if more: "+ [X] more overdue")
• Most urgent first
• Include original due date
• If none: Skip this section entirely

Step 3: Extract Today's Priorities

Combine from multiple sources:

1. From todo.md:
• "?? Due Today" section
• "?? This Week" items due today

1. From meeting-notes/:
• Action items assigned to user with today's deadline
• Follow-ups due today

1. From calendar:
• Important meetings to prep for
• Deadlines

Display format:

Rules:

• Show max 5 items
• Numbered for easy reference
• Include checkbox format
• Prioritize by: urgency �� importance �� order mentioned

Step 4: Calendar Overview

If calendar data is available:

Display format:

Rules:

• Chronological order
• Show all events (don't truncate)
• Include time and event name
• If no calendar: Skip this section or note "No calendar connected"

Step 5: Context from Recent Meetings

Scan meeting-notes/ folder for files from last 3-7 days.

Extract:

• Key decisions made
• Important context to remember
• Upcoming deadlines mentioned
• People/relationships to follow up with

Display format:

?? CONTEXT (from recent meetings)
? [Key insight 1]
? [Key insight 2]
? [Key insight 3]

Rules:

• Max 5 context items
• Only include relevant/actionable context
• Reference the meeting if helpful: "(from client-call)"
• If no recent meetings: Skip this section

Step 6: Generate Focus Statement

Based on everything gathered, determine the ONE most important thing.

Criteria for choosing focus:

1. Overdue items with consequences
2. High-stakes meetings today
3. Deadlines that can't slip
4. Dependencies blocking others

Display format:

?? FOCUS FOR TODAY
[One clear sentence about the single most important thing]

Examples:

• "Get the Acme proposal sent �� it's 2 days overdue and they're waiting."
• "Prep for the investor call at 2pm �� everything else can wait."
• "Clear the 3 overdue tasks before starting anything new."
• "No fires today �� use this for deep work on the Q2 plan."

Step 7: Assemble the Briefing

Put it all together in the exact format:

Step 8: Handle Variations

"What's overdue?"

"What's on my calendar?"

"Weekly preview" / "What's this week look like?"

Edge Cases

No data sources found:

• Don't show empty briefing
• Offer to help set up todo list or process notes

First time user:

• Explain where data comes from
• Offer to create initial setup

Weekend briefing:

• Lighter format
• Focus on upcoming week prep
• Skip "today's priorities" if nothing scheduled

End of day request:

• Shift to "what's left today" + "tomorrow preview"
• Acknowledge time of day

Tone

• Crisp and actionable �� No fluff
• Honest about priorities �� Don't sugarcoat overdue items
• Encouraging but real �� "Busy day, but manageable"
• Proactive �� Surface things before they're problems
