The Idea
Build a “Teresa Torres-style /today command” for personal productivity - a single command that aggregates calendar, emails, and newsletters into a daily briefing one-pager in Obsidian, then git pushes for multi-machine sync.
Context
While testing moltbot’s morning-briefing skill, user referenced a maily.so article about Teresa Torres (product coach, non-developer) who built her own /today command with Claude Code. The article inspired reimagining the morning briefing as a complete personal AI pipeline.
The Vision
📅 apple-calendar ──┐
📧 himalaya email ──┼──▶ 🌅 morning-briefing ──▶ 📝 Obsidian ──▶ git push
📰 newsletter-parser┘ (Korean one-pager) (vault) (sync)
Key insight from Teresa Torres article:
“When I have a task, do I need to be involved? Can Claude just do it? Or does it need my input?”
Raw Exchange
User: “yes but output is not slack. it’s one pager in obsidian vault. once you post morning brief you push to git so I can sync in any other machine.”
What Makes This Novel
- Non-Slack output - Document-first, not chat-first
- Git sync - Multi-machine workflow, not single-device
- Korean language - Localized for user’s preference
- Obsidian integration - Knowledge management, not just notifications
Expansion Potential
- Blog: “Building Your Own /today Command: A Teresa Torres Approach”
- Tutorial: Personal AI assistant for knowledge workers
- Comparison: Chat-based vs document-based AI workflows
