| description | Aggregate one or more Inbox sources into today's Daily note with append-only summaries and source wikilinks. Use for Slack, meetings, code, clippings, or chat-log aggregation. |
Inbox aggregate
Aggregate captured material from Inbox/{YYYY-MM-DD}/{source}/ into the matching section of Daily/{YYYY-MM-DD}.md. This skill summarizes and links; it does not distribute material to its final Main DB destination.
Supported sources
| Source | Input | Reference |
|---|
| Slack | slack/*.md | references/slack.md |
| Meetings | mtgs/*.md | references/meetings.md |
| Code | code/code.md | references/code.md |
| Clippings | clippings/*.md | references/clippings.md |
| Chat logs | chat-logs/*.md | references/chat-logs.md |
When the user names a source, load only that reference. When the user asks to aggregate everything, process the sources in the table order and load each reference as needed.
Workflow
- Determine today's date with
date +%Y-%m-%d; do not infer it from conversation context.
- Read the latest
Daily/{date}.md. If it does not exist, run or propose daily-briefing first.
- Resolve the requested source or sources and list matching Inbox files.
- Before summarizing each file, search the Daily note for its exact wikilink. Skip material already linked.
- Read the source-specific reference, produce its concise bullet format, and route it to the documented Daily section.
- Append only. Do not rewrite existing bullets or Daily frontmatter.
- Re-read the edited Daily note and verify every new bullet contains a valid source wikilink.
- Report processed, skipped, and missing source counts.
Invariants
- Raw captures stay in Inbox until
eod-distill handles distribution.
- Never paste full transcripts or long source bodies into Daily.
- Never invent facts absent from the capture.
- Use
Maps/People-Map.md for participant-name normalization when processing meetings.
- Concurrent runs rely on exact source wikilinks for idempotency; re-read immediately before each append.
