A brief that writes itself
Every morning at 5:38, before I’m up, an agent runs on its own. It reads what changed overnight and rewrites one page I open first.
I designed the page, wrote the agent’s instructions and keep tightening both.
It counts what I actually sent, not what I built.
Everything that wants something from me
- InboxesEvery inbox I point at it, each checked on its own. Newsletters and receipts are filtered out.
- CalendarToday’s events.
- My own logWhat I planned yesterday against what I did.
One page, three things
It changes only the page’s data, never its code, so a bad morning can’t break the dashboard.
- TodayThree things, in order, each with why it matters and a deadline.
- ProjectsEvery project with one line of fact and the next step, grouped by now, waiting on me and parked.
- EmailsOnly the ones that need me, with a reply already drafted. Sending takes two taps and asks first.
- NightFrom 8 pm the page turns navy.
Honest by design
Never invent a number, a reply or a payment. If a source fails, it says unavailable, never zero.
Anything it asks for three mornings running gets a plain question: do it or drop it.
The real page, October 2026, filled with made-up sample data. My own mail, plans and numbers stay private. Tap or click a screen to open it full size.
Read before I’m up.
It’s a private page, so there’s no link to visit.
