Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Morning Briefing — canonical markdown + fan-out

Invoke as `/catalyst-dev:morning-briefing` to produce today's briefing locally and fan it out to Slack DM, Slack channel, Notion page, and a Loom recording script.

**Paths.** Commands below name files inside this skill's own directory as `${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/…`. Claude Code fills that in. On any other harness, set CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR to the absolute directory that contains this SKILL.md before running them. If you cannot, stop and report `skill_dir_unresolved`.

## Flags

| Flag | Meaning |
|---|---|
| `--date YYYY-MM-DD` | Target date. Default: today (UTC). |
| `--dry-run` | Write to `/tmp/morning-briefing-<date>.md` instead of `thoughts/briefings/`. |

## Load on demand

| when | read |
| -- | -- |
| gathering yesterday/today from Linear, GitHub, Granola, Drive, Calendar | `references/gather.md` |
| surfacing decisions — ADR drift, blocked PRs, judgment calls, compound proposals | `references/decisions.md` |
| the ADR-drift detector's frontmatter contract, output shape, and config resolution | `references/adr-drift.md` |
| the friction / learnings "since last briefing" digests | `references/digests.md` |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add coalesce-labs/catalyst/morning-briefing@sha256:fa7c55c08c0ad1d9

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260913.f9773dc, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
