What This Does
This playbook turns Claude into a personal briefing assistant that scans all your connected platforms -- chat, email, cloud storage, project trackers, and more -- and generates a structured digest organized by topic. It surfaces action items, decisions, mentions, and document updates so you can catch up quickly after time away or start your day with a clear picture.

Say: "Give me a daily digest"
Time Window Options
--daily-- Last 24 hours (the default)--weekly-- Last 7 days--since Monday-- Custom start date--since 2026-01-20-- Specific date
Output Format
The digest is organized by topic and project, not by source. It includes:
- Action Items -- Requests, tasks, and questions needing your response
- Decisions Made -- Conclusions reached across threads and emails
- Topic Groups -- Activity summaries merged across all sources
- Mentions -- Where you were referenced or discussed
- Documents Updated -- Recent changes to files you care about
A summary line at the end gives you the counts at a glance.
Tips
- Action items come first -- they are the most actionable part of any digest
- Weekly digests prioritize significance over completeness, so you get what matters without the noise
- Cross-source deduplication means the same decision discussed in chat and email shows up only once
- Works well even with just one connected source
