What is morning-brief?

A daily briefing workflow that combines calendar events, reminders, inbox status, weather, meeting context, and goals into one view. Optional sections are omitted when their connected services are not available.

Use it to prepare a morning overview of appointments, important messages, reminders, weather, meeting background, and alignment with current goals.

It removes the need to assemble the day's information manually from email, calendars, reminders, and goal records.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00020	$0.06988
Opus 5.5	$0.00008	$0.02795
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00004	$0.01398
Haiku 4.5	$0.00002	$0.00699

Security

Grade A, and why

morning-brief 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 today.

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.

Morning Briefing

v1.5 — Unified hard deadline keywords; edge case fixes; structural cleanup

Generate a comprehensive daily morning briefing combining calendar, reminders, inbox state, weather, meeting context, and optional email triage into a single view.

Prerequisites

This skill requires several MCP integrations and config files to function fully. Missing components degrade gracefully (sections are omitted, not errors).

Required:

Gmail MCP -- for inbox scanning, VIP detection, waiting-for detection
Google Calendar MCP -- for today's schedule and lookahead

Recommended:

Config files (see First-Time Setup below):
- ~/.claude-assistant/config/email-policy.md -- VIP lists, email routing rules
- ~/.claude-assistant/config/calendar-policy.md -- calendar IDs, working hours, city name
- ~/.claude-assistant/config/triage-config.md -- label IDs, vendor domains, classification rules
- ~/.claude-assistant/config/goals.yaml -- objectives and priorities for goal alignment

Optional:

Granola MCP -- for meeting context from past transcripts
Apple Reminders (macOS only) -- for task/reminder integration
/triage-inbox skill -- for auto-triage phase
Health check script at ~/.claude-assistant/scripts/check-sync.sh -- for system health monitoring

First-Time Setup

Create config directory:

mkdir -p ~/.claude-assistant/config
mkdir -p ~/.claude-assistant/state
mkdir -p ~/.claude-assistant/logs
mkdir -p ~/.claude-assistant/scripts

Create calendar-policy.md with at minimum:

## Calendars
- primary ([email protected])
- [add other calendar IDs you want included]

## Working Hours
- 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM

## Location
- City: [Your City]
- Timezone: [YOUR_TIMEZONE]

Create email-policy.md with at minimum:

## VIP List
### Tier 1 (respond within 24h)
- [name] <[email protected]>

### Tier 2 (respond within 48h)
- [name] <[email protected]>

## @ToSelf Label
- Label name: @ToSelf
- Label ID: <YOUR_LABEL_ID>

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.
