Morning Brief

Build a prioritized brief for today from the caller's calendar, messages, documents and project records, using Keep MCP. Read only.

1. Read today's calendar events, open assigned tasks, direct requests since the last brief and unresolved commitments.
2. Separate active incidents, decisions waiting on the caller, external deadlines and routine work. Check for replies before calling an item outstanding. Rank by consequence and time remaining.
3. Fit proposed actions around fixed meetings and flag conflicting commitments.

Result: a dated brief with urgent changes, commitments, meeting preparation and a feasible next-action list, each tied to its source.
