Ein Befehl für eine morgendliche Zusammenfassung des aktuellen Arbeitsstands. Er liest vorhandene Notizen, Projekte und Personeninformationen und sucht zusätzlich nach jüngeren Aktivitäten.

In plain words

Why use it?
Du musst nicht mehrere Dateien und frühere Einträge einzeln durchsuchen, um wieder in ein Projekt hineinzukommen.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

briefing scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 3d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 85 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/briefing

Morning summary. Show the user where things stand so they can pick up where they left off. This is the "catch me up" command.

Instructions

Step 1: Gather Context

Read the following files directly (skip any that don't exist):

  1. memory/journal/YYYY-MM-DD.md -- today's date (may not exist if it's early in the day)
  2. memory/journal/YYYY-MM-DD.md -- yesterday's date
  3. memory/journal/YYYY-MM-DD.md -- two days ago (for additional context if yesterday is thin)
  4. memory/projects/_index.md -- active projects
  5. memory/people/_index.md -- known people for context
  6. memory/user.md -- for timezone and personal context

Step 2: Search for Recent Activity

Use the search engine to find recent activity, decisions, and context that the direct file reads might miss:

cd kit/search && npx tsx src/cli.ts search "recent session work progress" --limit 10 --memory-path ../memory

Also search for any active project names found in projects/_index.md to surface recent project-specific context:

cd kit/search && npx tsx src/cli.ts search "[project name]" --limit 5 --memory-path ../memory

Scan the decisions directory for any files from the last 7 days:

  • memory/decisions/ -- look for files with recent dates in their filenames

Step 3: Search for People in Context

If any people were mentioned in recent journal entries or search results, search for additional context:

cd kit/search && npx tsx src/cli.ts search "[person name]" --limit 3 --memory-path ../memory

Step 4: Build the Briefing

Present a clean, scannable summary using this format:

## Good morning. Here's where we left off.

### Last Session
[Summarize the most recent journal entry. What was worked on? What was the state when the session ended? Any open threads?]
[Include citations: (Source: journal/YYYY-MM-DD.md#line)]

[If no recent journal entries exist: "No recent session history. This might be our first conversation, or sessions haven't been logged yet."]

### Active Projects
[For each project in _index.md, show: name, current status, and any recent activity from journal entries or search results. Highlight anything that seems urgent or time-sensitive.]
[Include citations to project files and journal entries.]

[If no projects: "No projects being tracked yet."]

### Recent Decisions
[List any decisions from the last 7 days with a one-line summary of each. Include citation to decision file.]

[If none: skip this section entirely.]

### Open Threads
[Extract any unresolved questions, pending items, or "next steps" mentioned in recent journal entries or search results. These are things that might need attention today.]

[If none: skip this section entirely.]

### People in Context
[If any people were mentioned in recent journal entries, note them briefly with their role/relationship. Include citations.]

[If none: skip this section entirely.]

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

briefing is a command published in the GitHub repository tstockham96/claw-kit (5 stars, last pushed 6mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 803 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
