Before & after

Same prompt, same agent — the only difference is the skill.

Prompt“Set up a morning dashboard showing my calendar, urgent emails, and top priority.”
Beforegeneric AI agent
That's a good workflow idea. You'd need to pull data from Gmail, your calendar, maybe Slack, and any news sources you care about. You'd probably want to run it on a schedule so it's ready when you wake up. There are a few ways to do this—you could use a workflow automation tool, or write a script that pulls from APIs and formats everything into a summary. You'd want to include your meetings for the day, any urgent emails, and maybe your top priority or task. The format could be an HTML dashboard, an email, or even a message to Slack. Do you have a preferred tool? And what timezone are you in?
Afterwith Morning Briefing Dashboard
MORNING BRIEFING DASHBOARD: SCHEDULED, INTERACTIVE (ready when you sit down)

COMPONENT 1: MEETINGS (from Google Calendar)
→ Today, 06:00 fetch: All events, extract time + attendees + Zoom link (if exists)
→ Format: 'Meeting title | 10:00-11:00 | 3 attendees | Zoom link'
→ Contextual: If meeting starts in 30 min, highlight in red

COMPONENT 2: URGENT REPLIES (from Gmail, smart filters)
→ Priority: Emails from boss, key customers, or flagged as 'requires response'
→ Recency: Arrived in last 12 hours, unanswered
→ Display: Sender + subject line + first 50 words of body
→ Example: 'From: investor@vc.com | Quarterly call tomorrow?' (3 words of email preview)

COMPONENT 3: TODAY'S ONE THING (custom priority rule)
→ Option A: Highest-revenue-impact task (from your task manager)
→ Option B: Most-overdue item (from Asana/Notion)
→ Option C: Custom: 'Whatever you set last night in Slack'
→ Display rule: Single task name + deadline. That's it.

COMPONENT 4: COMPETITIVE NEWS (if enabled)
→ Keywords: Your config (e.g., 'AI agents', 'Claude', 'LLM tools')
→ Source: Hacker News, Twitter, Y Combinator news
→ Display: 1-3 top stories from last 24 hours

COMPONENT 5: WEATHER + COMMUTE (optional)
→ Location-based from Google Calendar primary location
→ Time to commute destination (maps estimated travel time)

DELIVERY
→ Scheduled: Run daily at your preferred time (06:00, 07:00, 08:00). Timezone-aware.
→ Format: Interactive HTML (no login required; stateless)
→ Accessible: Open link from email or dashboard shortcut
→ Reliability: Requires laptop awake at schedule time; does not retry
