Daily AI Briefing

Free

A skill that researches your topics overnight and writes your morning briefing into one file.

Time to complete: ~45 minutes

You'll need a desktop or laptop to actually do this use case. Browse now, do it there.

The problem

Staying informed became a second job. You scroll LinkedIn, newsletters, and news sites, it feels productive, and somehow you still miss the one thing that mattered. Every morning the same questions:

  • Which of these hundred headlines actually changes anything for my work?
  • Can I trust this source, or is it hype?
  • Did I miss something important yesterday?
  • Why did half an hour just disappear?

Doing this by hand costs 30 minutes on a good morning, hours on a bad one, and some days you give up and read nothing, then feel anxious all day. There's a faster way: an agent reads your topics overnight, and your briefing is a 10-minute read waiting for you.

What you get

  • Your CLAUDE.md memory file: who you are and what you follow, the foundation every next use case builds on
  • A working daily-briefing skill: your topics, your sources, one briefing file every time you ask
  • A morning that starts with answers instead of feeds
  • The complete skill file with my real briefing inside, to compare with yours or just use

Who this is for

  • The "AI person" on the team, the one everyone asks "so what does this news actually mean for us?"
  • Business analysts, project managers, and marketers who need to notice the ground moving before everyone else
  • People drowning in feeds and newsletters that mostly repeat yesterday
  • Anyone who quit reading news out of overwhelm and feels guilty about it

You need: the free Start Here card completed, and about 45 minutes.

FAQ
  • Do I need Claude Code for this? Yes, this skill runs on it. The free Start Here card sets it up in about 45 minutes.
  • Is this only for AI news? No. My example follows AI topics, but the skill takes whatever you put in your memory file: your industry, your market, your hobby. The method is universal.
  • Can I change my topics later? Yes, in plain words. Tell it "add European market news, drop the hobby topics" and the memory file updates.
  • Where does the briefing live? A dated markdown file in your briefing folder, on your machine. Obsidian shows it as a clean note.
  • What format are the files? All markdown (.md). Easy to read, copy, and customize.

About the creator

I'm Anastasia, a business analyst. This card exists because my own mornings disappeared into LinkedIn, two newsletters, and news sites, and I still could not tell which sources to trust. Now the same reading is a 10-minute briefing that is already written when I sit down. The profile and skill file in this card are my real ones.
