Morning Briefing Agent

Example prompt: "Every morning at 6:30am, send me a briefing with today's weather, my calendar events, top 5 AI and tech news stories, and my highest priority tasks from Todoist."

How to automate morning briefings with GloriaMundo

The Problem

Most people start their day by checking several apps in sequence: weather, calendar, news, task manager, maybe email. Each one demands its own context switch, and by the time you have pieced together what your day looks like, 15-20 minutes have gone. The information is scattered across tabs and notifications, and there is no single view that tells you "here is what matters today." Building this habit manually every morning is tedious, and it is easy to miss something important — a meeting that clashes with a deadline, or a news story that is directly relevant to your work.

How GloriaMundo Solves It

We build a workflow that runs on a daily schedule at your chosen time. An integration step pulls today's events from Google Calendar, including times, locations, and attendee lists. A second integration step fetches your highest-priority tasks from Todoist. A web search step finds the top news stories in your chosen topics — AI, technology, industry news, or whatever you specify. An LLM step takes all this raw data and composes a concise, readable briefing: your schedule at a glance, priority tasks for the day, and a short summary of each news story with links. The finished briefing is delivered to Slack (or email, if you prefer). Glass Box preview shows you the full briefing before it is sent, so you can adjust the format or news topics on first setup.

Example Workflow Steps

  1. Trigger (scheduled): Runs daily at 6:30am (or your preferred time).
  2. Step 1 (integration): Fetch today's calendar events from Google Calendar, including times, descriptions, and attendees.
  3. Step 2 (integration): Retrieve the top 5 highest-priority tasks from Todoist that are due today or overdue.
  4. Step 3 (web_search): Search for the top 5 news stories in your specified topics (e.g. AI, technology, your industry).
  5. Step 4 (LLM): Compose a structured daily briefing — calendar overview, priority tasks, and news summaries with links — in a clean, readable format.
  6. Step 5 (integration): Send the briefing to your chosen Slack channel or as a direct message.

Integrations Used

  • Google Calendar — source of today's meetings, events, and schedule
  • Todoist — source of prioritised tasks and deadlines
  • Slack — delivery channel for the morning briefing

Who This Is For

Busy professionals, founders, and remote workers who check multiple apps every morning and want a single, consolidated view of their day delivered before they sit down at their desk.

Time & Cost Saved

Manually checking weather, calendar, news, and tasks each morning takes roughly 15-20 minutes of app-switching. This workflow delivers everything in one message, reducing your morning routine to a 2-minute read. Over a month, that is 5-6 hours reclaimed. The workflow uses integration, web search, and LLM steps, costing a few credits per daily run — well within the included allowance for regular use.
