SKILL.md

Get Today Content Sub-Skill

Reads Today.md from the Captive folder and parses it into structured data for the daily review process.

Prerequisites

This sub-skill expects $VAULT to be set by the calling skill (via get-config).

File Location

  • Today.md: $VAULT/00_Brain/Captive/Today.md

Execution Steps

1. Check File Existence

Verify Today.md exists:

bash
ls -la "$VAULT/00_Brain/Captive/Today.md"

If missing, return error result.

2. Read Today.md

Read the full content of Today.md.

3. Parse Frontmatter

Extract YAML frontmatter fields:

  • date - Target date (YYYY-MM-DD)
  • day - Day of week
  • week - ISO week (YYYY-Www)
  • month - Month (YYYY-MM)
  • quarter - Quarter (YYYY-QN)
  • energy - Energy level (High/Medium/Low)
  • location - Work location
  • focus_hours - Available focus hours
  • meetings - Number of meetings

4. Parse Sections

Extract each section by heading:

Focus Section:

  • priorities[] - The 3 top priorities (including completion status if marked)
  • leadership_intention - The chosen intention for the day

Meetings Section:

  • meetings[] - Array of meeting blocks with:
    • title - Meeting name
    • type - "1:1" or "group" or "interview"
    • person - For 1:1s, the person's wikilink
    • content - Full meeting notes content

Capture Section:

  • captures[] - Items dumped during the day (links, notes, ideas)

Wins Section:

  • wins.personal - Personal wins content
  • wins.organisational - Team/org wins content
  • wins.strategic - Strategic/project wins content

Insights Section:

  • insights.what_went_well - Content
  • insights.what_could_be_better - Content
  • insights.key_insight - Content

Carry Forward Section:

  • carry_forward[] - Items marked for tomorrow

5. Assess Completeness

Determine which sections have meaningful content vs. just prompts:

  • wins_filled: true if any wins subsection has content beyond prompts
  • insights_filled: true if any insights subsection has content beyond prompts
  • priorities_status: "complete" / "partial" / "empty" based on check marks

Prompts are identified by:

  • Starting with * (italic)
  • Containing question marks
  • Being placeholder text like [content]

6. Extract Entities

Scan all content for wikilinks and extract:

  • people[] - [[PersonName]] references (from meetings, wins, etc.)
  • projects[] - [[project-name]] references
  • areas[] - [[area-name]] references
  • resources[] - External links captured

7. Return Structured Result
