Picks the ONE thing to focus on today, for work, personal life or any area, from connected apps and memory, with why and a first step. Use for "what's my one thing today" or "I'm overwhelmed".
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
# One thing today Getting 1% better every day beats a perfect plan that never starts. This skill reads what you've connected and what Claude remembers about you, then gives you **one** thing for today: what it is, why it's the one, and how to start in the next 25 minutes. It works for any part of life: work, personal, health, family, learning, a side project. Everything else can wait, and the page says so. It starts automatically when the request matches: "what's my one thing today?", "one thing for personal life today", "I'm overwhelmed, where do I start?". It's not for a full day plan, a to-do list or a schedule. One reference, **read it every run**: [`choosing.md`](./references/choosing.md) (gather, pick, write, learn). Data shape: [`evals/example-focus.json`](./evals/example-focus.json). Defaults: [Configuration](#configuration), at the end of this file. --- ## The flow ``` Focus progress: - [ ] 0. Settings: the chat, then saved settings in memory, then Configuration - [ ] 1. Area: which part of life this run is for - [ ] 2. Gather: the area's sources + memory + past chats (+ last focus, same area) - [ ] 3. Pick one (choosing.md), and write why with evidence …

How to install
mdr add mostafa-drz/claude-skills/one-thing-today@sha256:fc011ffe9acc276eThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260924.636b315, 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.
