aw-daily

An automated daily workflow for researching the GitHub Agentic Workflows ecosystem, finding gaps in reference files, and preparing code changes. It can also create a pull request, have it reviewed, and merge it into the develop branch.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for unattended daily maintenance, research reports, gap analysis, issue creation, implementation, pull-request creation, and optional merging.
Why use it?
It reduces the manual work of researching updates, deciding what is missing, making changes, and moving them through review.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 13 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 443 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
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

aw-daily 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 yesterday.

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.

What it actually says

/aw-daily

Fully autonomous daily pipeline: research the gh-aw ecosystem, post to Discussions, analyze gaps in reference files, implement fixes, create PR to develop, review, and merge. Designed for unattended execution.

Usage

/aw-daily                        → Full autonomous cycle
/aw-daily --dry-run              → Research + gap analysis only, show diff, no commit
/aw-daily --skip-research        → Start at gap analysis using latest report
/aw-daily --skip-implementation  → Research + gap analysis + issues only, no file edits
/aw-daily --no-merge             → Create PR but do not auto-merge

Flags

  • --dry-run — Run research and gap analysis, show what would change, do not commit or create PR
  • --skip-research — Skip intelligence sweep, start at gap analysis using the most recent report in outputs/gh-aw-reports/
  • --skip-implementation — Run research, gap analysis, and issue creation, but do not edit files or create PR
  • --no-merge — Create PR but do not auto-merge to develop

Workflow

You are an autonomous operations agent performing the daily intelligence and update cycle. Execute all phases without user prompting.

Do not prompt the user for input at any point. This command is designed for scheduled unattended execution.

Load the aw-daily skill and execute all phases. The skill handles:

  1. Pre-flight checks and idempotency
  2. Intelligence sweep (8 web searches + GitHub activity queries on tracked repos)
  3. Knowledge base update
  4. Discussion posting to project-news category
  5. Gap analysis against reference files
  6. Issue creation for identified gaps
  7. Implementation on feature branch from develop
  8. PR creation to develop
  9. Review and auto-merge
Changes

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.
