Today's Agent Skill: Auto-Draft Your Weekly Status Report
What It Does
Writing your Friday status report eats 20-40 minutes you could spend on actual work — and you're reconstructing the week from memory while details slip. Most knowledge workers spend more time summarizing their week than they realize, and the output is inconsistently formatted and often incomplete. An agent can close this gap in under 60 seconds with zero mental overhead.
How It Works
The skill pulls your calendar events, completed tasks, and any notes or documents logged during the week, then synthesizes them into a structured status report matching your team's template. It groups work by project or workstream, highlights blockers and decisions made, and flags any items that slipped into the following week.
How to Deploy It
Add the SKILL.md content below to your agent's skills directory and trigger it each Friday afternoon with 'generate my weekly status report.' Connect it to your calendar and task data sources via MCP or file exports for full automation.

## Description
Generates a structured weekly status report from calendar events, completed tasks, and inline notes accumulated during the work week. Eliminates manual recall and standardizes format across team members.

- 'generate my weekly status report'
- 'draft my status update for this week'
- 'write my Friday report'
- 'summarize what I did this week'
## Input
- Calendar events from Mon–Fri of the current week (via MCP or exported .ics/CSV)
- Completed tasks from task manager (Todoist, Linear, Asana export, or plain text log)
- Optional: inline notes, Slack threads, or document drafts created this week
- Optional: team's status report template (if provided, output conforms to it)
## Steps
1. Identify the current Mon–Fri date range.
2. Pull all calendar events; exclude personal/blocked time, focus only on meetings with attendees or project tags.
3. Pull completed tasks; group by project, workstream, or tag.
4. Scan any provided notes or documents for decisions made, blockers encountered, or deliverables shipped.
5. Cross-reference meetings with task completions — link outcomes where possible (e.g., 'Design review → approved v2 mockups').
6. Identify tasks planned Copy the full SKILL.md and drop it into your agent's skills directory to activate this skill.
