Daily Recap

Generate a daily recap/summary of all agent activity and save it to Obsidian. Use when asked to do a daily recap, end-of-day summary, or when a cron job fires for the nightly recap. Reads today's memory log, summarizes what was asked, researched, built, and done, then writes a journal entry to vault/daily-recap/YYYY-MM-DD.md with appropriate tags.

At the end of each day, compile a summary of all agent activity and journal it into Obsidian.

Workflow

1. Read today's memory log: memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md (use today's date)
2. Read recent Discord messages (optional): scan the guild channels for today's messages if memory log is sparse
3. Compile the recap covering:
   • What Ryan asked/requested
   • Research performed and key findings
   • Things built or created (files, skills, scripts, configs)
   • Decisions made or outcomes reached
   • Anything notable or worth remembering
4. Write the journal entry to vault/daily-recap/YYYY-MM-DD.md (create daily-recap/ folder if it doesn't exist)
5. Update memory: append a note to memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md that the recap was written

Journal Entry Format

Use this YAML frontmatter and structure:

markdown

---
date: YYYY-MM-DD
time: 23:59 ET
type: daily-recap
source: agent
tags: [daily-recap, <auto-detected topic tags>]
---

# Daily Recap — YYYY-MM-DD

## Requests & Tasks
- Brief bullet per task Ryan asked about

## Research
- Brief bullet per topic researched (include key finding if notable)

## Built / Created
- Brief bullet per file, skill, config, or script created or modified

## Decisions & Outcomes
- Any significant decisions made, options chosen, or conclusions reached

## Notable
- Anything else worth remembering (errors, surprises, ideas flagged)

---
*Auto-generated by Atlas at end of day.*

Rules

• Keep bullets concise — this is a summary, not a transcript
• Auto-detect tags from content (topics, tools, projects mentioned)
• Do NOT paraphrase Ryan's words in the Requests section — quote the gist faithfully
• If memory log is empty or missing, write "No activity logged" in each section rather than skipping the entry
• The entry file path must be: vault/daily-recap/YYYY-MM-DD.md
• Never overwrite an existing entry — if one exists, append a ## Addendum section instead

Cron Usage

This skill is designed to run nightly via a cron job (e.g., at 11:59 PM ET). When triggered by cron, run the full workflow silently and confirm completion in the cron delivery message.
