This Claude prompt turned my Todoist list into a daily morning brief

A creator describes using Claude to turn a Todoist task list into a weekday morning briefing that arrives before they start work. Every morning, the AI reads Todoist and summarizes what’s overdue, what’s due that day, and what’s coming up over the next three days. The system also flags items that may be missing dates or could be overlooked. The workflow extends beyond tasks: Claude has read access to local Obsidian folders and read-only access to email accounts, letting it check whether items marked as done are actually completed. The author credits the setup with reducing list “staleness” and improving productivity.
