What this skill does
Weekly Prep Brief Generate a single comprehensive weekly briefing that covers every external customer or prospect call in the next 7 days, with per-meeting account and contact research from Common Room. Briefing Process Step 1: Get the Week's External Meetings Option A — Calendar connected: Use the ~~calendar connector to fetch all meetings scheduled in the next 7 days (or a user-specified range). Filter to keep only external meetings — those with attendees from outside your organization. Discard internal-only meetings, one-on-ones with colleagues, and recurring internal syncs. Identify for each external meeting: Company name Meeting date and time External attendee names and email addresses Option B — No calendar connected: Ask the user: "To build your weekly prep brief, I'll need your upcoming external calls. Please list them: company name, date/time, and attendee names." Accept freeform input and parse it into a structured list before proceeding. Step 2: Confirm the Meeting List Present the identified meetings to the user for confirmation before beginning research: "Here are the external calls I found for this week. Let me know if anything's missing or should be excluded: - [Company] — [Day], [Time] — [Attendees] - ..." This prevents wasted research on cancelled or incorrect meetings. Step 3: Research Each Meeting For each confirmed external meeting, run in parallel where possible: 1. Account research — full account snapshot using the account-research skill 2. Contact research — profile for each external attendee using the contact-research skill Common Room data is the primary source. After CR research, run a quick recency check for each company — this is supplementary, not primary: Search "[company name]" news scoped to the last 7 days For executive attendees, search their name for recent public posts or interviews Only include findings that are genuinely noteworthy (funding, leadership changes, major press). Don't pad the brief with generic news. …
