# Daily Briefing

## What it does
Produce one short briefing each morning from the connected data sources and
deliver it to the named recipient.

## Deterministic rules
- Never invent a number; every figure must come from a connected source
- Maximum 300 words, newest information first
- If a source is unavailable, say so explicitly instead of omitting it
- Deliver only to the recipient recorded on the task

Tutorial steps

  1. 1Hatch a Specialist Twin of type research/analyst.
  2. 2Create the skill with the manifest below; keep it in dev first.
  3. 3Connect Gmail or Telegram in Adapters and run Test connection.
  4. 4Assign the skill to the Specialist, then delegate one briefing.
  5. 5Read the delivery log, then promote the skill to live.

The Decision Card must show

  1. ·Low risk — usually executes without approval.
  2. ·If you add a paid data source, risk rises and a card appears.

What the receipt proves

That a briefing was generated and actually delivered at a given time, to a given recipient.

Honest limits

  • It reads the data sources you connect — it does not browse arbitrary websites.
  • No adapter connected means a draft, explicitly labelled not executed.
