Today's Agent Skill: Weekly Status Digest
What It Does
Every Friday, someone on your team spends 30–45 minutes copy-pasting updates from Slack, Jira, email, and notes into a status report nobody reads by Monday. The problem isn't the report — it's the manual assembly. An agent can pull that together in seconds, every time, without the formatting drift.
How It Works
The skill collects raw inputs (bullet notes, thread dumps, task lists, or plain text updates) and structures them into a consistent weekly digest with sections for wins, blockers, and next week's priorities. It normalizes tone, deduplicates overlapping updates, and flags anything marked urgent or overdue.
How to Deploy It
Drop the SKILL.md content into your agent's skills directory and trigger it each Friday by pasting your raw weekly notes or a dump from your project tracker. Works with any SKILL.md-compatible agent — no integrations required, just text in, digest out.

## Description
Produces a formatted weekly status digest from raw notes, task dumps, or freeform updates. Normalizes tone, groups by theme, and surfaces blockers and priorities clearly.
## Trigger
User pastes or types weekly updates in any format — bullets, prose, Slack thread dumps, or task exports. Trigger phrase: "weekly digest", "status report", or "wrap up this week."
## Input
- Raw update text (required): any format, any length
- Team name or project name (optional): used to personalize the header
- Reporting period (optional): defaults to the current week if omitted
## Steps
1. Parse the input and identify discrete update items — completed work, in-progress items, blockers, and upcoming priorities.
2. Deduplicate overlapping or repeated mentions of the same item.
3. Classify each item into one of four buckets: ✅ Wins, 🔄 In Progress, 🚧 Blockers, 📅 Next Week.
4. Flag any item containing urgency signals ("urgent", "blocked", "overdue", "deadline", "ASAP") with a ⚠️ marker.
5. Normalize tone to professional-neutral — remove filler, fix fragments, keep specifics.
6. Assemble the final digest with a header, four labeled sections, and a one-sentence summary line at the top.
