Getting Started

When you run this skill, I'll ask for what I need:

If no calendar connected:

"What meetings do you have today? (Just paste your calendar or list them)"

If no CRM connected:

"What deals are you focused on this week? Any that need attention?"

If you have connectors: I'll pull everything automatically and just show you the briefing.

Connectors (Optional)

Connect your tools to supercharge this skill:

No connectors? No problem. Tell me your meetings and deals, and I'll create your briefing.

Execution Flow

Step 1: Gather Context

If connectors available:

1. Calendar → Get today's events
   - Filter to external meetings (non-company attendees)
   - Pull: time, title, attendees, description

2. CRM → Query your pipeline
   - Open opportunities owned by you
   - Flag: closing this week, no activity 7+ days, slipped dates
   - Get: overdue tasks, upcoming tasks

3. Email → Check priority messages
   - Unread from opportunity contact domains
   - Sent messages with no reply (3+ days)

4. Enrichment → Check signals (if available)
   - Funding, hiring, news on open accounts

If no connectors:

Ask user:
1. "What meetings do you have today?"
2. "What deals are you focused on? Any closing soon or needing attention?"
3. "Anything urgent I should know about?"

Work with whatever they provide.

Step 2: Prioritize

Priority ranking:
1. URGENT: Deal closing today/tomorrow not yet won
2. HIGH: Meeting today with high-value opportunity
3. HIGH: Unread email from decision-maker
4. MEDIUM: Deal closing this week
5. MEDIUM: Stale deal (7+ days no activity)
6. LOW: Tasks due this week

Select #1 Priority:
- If meeting with >$50K deal today → prep that
- If deal closing today → focus on close
- If urgent email from buyer → respond first
- Else → highest-value stale deal

Step 3: Generate Briefing

Assemble sections based on available data:

1. #1 Priority — Always include (even if simple)
2. Today's Numbers — If CRM connected, otherwise skip
3. Today's Meetings — From calendar or user input
4. Pipeline Alerts — If CRM connected
5. Email Priorities — If email connected
6. Suggested Actions — Always include top 3 actions

Quick Mode

Say "quick brief" or "tldr my day" for abbreviated version:

# Quick Brief | [Date]

**#1:** [Priority action]

**Meetings:** [N] — [Company 1], [Company 2], [Company 3]

**Alerts:**
- [Alert 1]
- [Alert 2]

**Do Now:** [Single most important action]

End of Day Mode

Say "wrap up my day" or "end of day summary" after your last meeting:

# End of Day | [Date]

**Completed:**
- [Meeting 1] — [Outcome]
- [Meeting 2] — [Outcome]

**Pipeline Changes:**
- [Deal] moved to [Stage]

**Tomorrow's Focus:**
- [Priority 1]
- [Priority 2]

**Open Loops:**
- [ ] [Unfinished item needing follow-up]

Tips

1. Connect your calendar first — Biggest time saver
2. Add CRM second — Unlocks pipeline alerts
3. Even without connectors — Just tell me your meetings and I'll help prioritize
