The Morning Rebuild
A scheduled task that re-reads your calendar, inbox, documents and task list every weekday morning, then rewrites today into four sections and tells you what changed and why.

What's inside
- The four places to check every morning, and why each one changes the ranking: calendar, recent email, active documents, task list.
- The four fixed sections the plan always comes back in: first today, can wait, waiting on someone else, drop from today.
- The full copy-paste standing prompt, including the two rules people skip: leave open space, and explain what new information moved a priority.
- How to put it on a weekday schedule in Claude Cowork, and the one setting that decides whether it runs while your laptop is closed.
- The midday habit that matters most: update the same plan instead of rebuilding your day from memory.
Who it's for
Professionals whose week keeps moving after they plan it, and who lose the first thirty minutes of every day working out what is actually true this morning.
