README

morning-digest

A lightweight morning digest generator for PMs and busy professionals.

It creates one compact text digest with:

your next 24 hours of calendar events
important unread Gmail messages
AI news with short TL;DRs
product news with short TL;DRs
local news with short TL;DRs when material

Why this exists

If your mornings start with too many tabs, too many inbox checks, and too much context switching, this script gives you one clean briefing instead.

It is built for people who want:

a fast view of the day ahead
inbox signal without scanning everything
a lightweight intelligence brief
something simple enough to self-host and tweak

What makes it usable

You do **not** need to edit the script to get started.

On first run, it prompts you for:

your name
your timezone
your calendar labels + calendar IDs
your local-news query and keywords

It saves that setup to:

~/.morning-digest/config.json

After that, the digest is ready to run daily.

Quick start

1. Install requirements

You need:

Python 3.11+
`gog` configured for your Google account
a Brave Search API key available in OpenClaw config at ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json

2. Make sure `gog` works

Before using the digest, make sure your Google tooling is already authenticated.

For example:

gog calendar list --json
gog gmail labels --json

If those work, the digest will usually work too.

3. Run the setup wizard

python3 morning_digest.py --setup

You’ll be prompted for your personal details and calendar setup.

4. Generate your digest

python3 morning_digest.py

Example setup prompts

Your name
Timezone
Calendar 1 label
Calendar 1 id
Calendar 2 label
Calendar 2 id
Local news section label
Local news search query
Local relevance keywords

Config file

The script stores a local config here:

~/.morning-digest/config.json

Example:

{
  "name": "Shadman",
  "timezone": "Europe/Stockholm",
  "calendars": [
    { "label": "Personal", "id": "your-personal-calendar-id@example.com" },
    { "label": "Work", "id": "your-work-calendar-id@example.com" }
  ],
  "gmail_queries": [
    "in:inbox is:unread is:important",
    "in:inbox is:unread category:primary",
    "in:inbox is:unread"
  ],
  "news": {
    "ai_query": "AI news OR artificial intelligence latest developments",
    "product_query": "product launch OR product update OR release notes SaaS software",
    "local_query": "Sweden OR Uppsala important local news",
    "local_label": "SWEDEN + UPPSALA (only if material)",
    "local_keywords": ["uppsala", "sweden", "swedish", "stockholm"]
  }
}
