Guides Notion published apr 23, 2026
This guide shows you how to turn daily updates from Claude-connected work tools into a personalized Morning Edition: one ranked brief instead of bouncing between Slack, Gmail, Notion, and your calendar. You will produce a static newspaper-style daily brief, refine it, turn it into a reusable skill, and schedule it once it works. Plan for a few minutes to refine the first draft before you automate it.
You will build a static newspaper-style daily brief that pulls together your most important updates, then becomes a reusable skill and scheduled task.
Start with connected work tools you already trust. If you are testing with sensitive data, use sample content first.
Open Claude or Claude CoWork and make sure your integrations are connected.
If you already keep a central task list or a daily AI reports database in Notion, connect that too. That is where this gets better: Claude stops acting like a researcher and starts acting like an editor.
Prompt Claude to make the paper. Use a prompt close to this:
Take a stab at making me a quick morning newspaper called Morning Edition. It should update me on:
- my Slack updates
- my Notion updates
- my Gmail updates
- my calendar updates
Use the last 24 hours. Make it a static newspaper, not a live artifact. Format it like a newspaper with top stories, action items, and schedule prep.The “last 24 hours” instruction keeps the edition focused. The other important instruction is “static newspaper, not a live artifact.” You want something you can keep, review, and compare over time.
Pro tip: If Claude gives everything equal weight, ask it to make stronger editorial choices. Action items and calendar prep should beat random reading.
Once Claude gives you a first version, refine it before saving the workflow.
Then tell Claude:
Turn this process into a skill.Claude will package the workflow so you can run it again without rebuilding the prompt every time.
Pro tip: Do not waste Opus on this if your reports are already gathered upstream. In the demo, the better move was Sonnet or Haiku, because the hard work had already been done.
After the skill is saved, go to Claude CoWork and create a recurring task.
Your instruction can be simple:
Run /morning-edition every morning.If you want delivery built in, use:
Run /morning-edition and then email it to me at [your email].
If Slack or email is connected, you can have the edition delivered there. Otherwise, it will show up in a new Claude CoWork thread.
Once the skill is stable, the morning brief becomes a product, not another prompt you have to remember.
