pulse — Morning Briefing
Your day, in 60 seconds, before you get out of bed.
Jarvis pulls everything that matters — calendar, weather, urgent email, Slack highlights, open PRs — synthesizes it into a 4-6 sentence spoken briefing, and posts the full breakdown to Discord.
What It Covers
| Source | What Jarvis checks |
|---|
| Calendar | Events in the next 24h, anything starting soon |
| Weather | Today's forecast for your city |
| Email | Unread from important senders, flagged/starred |
| Slack | Unread DMs, mentions in key channels |
| GitHub | Open PRs needing review, CI failures |
| Comms | New texts/Signal if comms-check skill installed |
Configure which sources to include in SETUP.md.
Voice Output
Spoken (2-4 sentences, Jarvis voice):
"Good morning. You have a standup at 9 and a client call at 2 — both on calendar.
Three unread emails, one from your CEO flagged urgent. Rain this afternoon.
Full briefing in #general."
Full report (Discord text channel):
- Calendar: all events with times, links, attendees
- Weather: hourly breakdown
- Email: subject lines + senders for top 5
- Slack: channel highlights, DM count
- PRs: open reviews with staleness
- Comms: message count by sender

Or just say "brief me" any time on demand.
