Generate a weekly summary covering calendar events, unread email by category, and team status.

Prerequisite: Read the use-spark base skill for command reference and filter syntax.

Access level required: read-only.

Steps

Step 1: This week's calendar

spark events --week

List all meetings and events for the week.

Step 2: Unread email breakdown by category

spark emails Inbox --filter "category:priority is:unread newer_than:7d"
spark emails Inbox --filter "category:personal is:unread newer_than:7d"
spark emails Inbox --filter "category:notification is:unread newer_than:7d"
spark emails Inbox --filter "category:newsletter newer_than:7d"

Count items in each category for the summary.

Step 3: Team status

spark team "Team Name"

Review assignment summary - open items per member, unassigned work.

Step 4: Recent meeting transcripts

spark meetings --filter "newer_than:7d"

List meetings that have transcripts available for review.

Step 5: Present the digest

Summarize for the user:

• Calendar: N events this week (highlight important ones)
• Email: unread counts by category (people: M, priority: K, notifications: L, newsletters: J)
• Team: open assignments, any bottlenecks
• Meetings: transcripts available for review

Tips

• Run this recipe on Monday morning for a forward-looking view, or Friday afternoon for a retrospective.
• Skip the team step if the user doesn't work with teams.
• For the email breakdown, just report counts - don't list individual emails unless asked.
• If the user has multiple accounts, run spark accounts first and report per-account.
• Combine with recipe-inbox-by-category to process the most active categories first.
