cat > ~/.claude/briefing.sh << 'SCRIPT'
#!/bin/bash
claude --print "Run my daily briefing using the c-briefing skill. Be concise." \
  | terminal-notifier -title "Morning Briefing" -message "Ready" 2>/dev/null
SCRIPT
chmod +x ~/.claude/briefing.sh

# Schedule with cron (every weekday at 8:00 AM)
(crontab -l 2>/dev/null; echo "0 8 * * 1-5 ~/.claude/briefing.sh") | crontab -

# Or use lunchy-go for launchd (macOS)
lunchy-go install ~/.claude/briefing.plist

Just ask Claude: "Give me my daily briefing" or "What's on my plate today?"
