Hourly Digest

Two independent digest loops on different cadences: Slack messages from the past hour, Gmail from the past day. Respond in the user's language.

The cadences differ by source constraint: Gmail's newer_than: search operator only supports day/month/year units (no hour granularity), so the Gmail loop runs daily while the Slack loop runs hourly.

Argument Parsing

Each invocation runs exactly one section. Parse ARGUMENTS for the subcommand:

Execution

Run the requested section. On failure, report [ERROR] Source: {message}.

Load the MCP tools for the requested section upfront in a single ToolSearch call — only the tools that section needs, so a missing connector fails fast:

Slack section:  ToolSearch("select:mcp__claude_ai_Slack__slack_search_public_and_private")
Gmail section:  ToolSearch("select:mcp__claude_ai_Gmail__gmail_search_messages,mcp__claude_ai_Gmail__gmail_read_message")

1. Slack Hourly Digest (past hour)

1. Compute today's date and the Unix timestamp of one hour ago via Bash: date '+%Y-%m-%d' and date -v-1H +%s (Slack query after: excludes the given date; use on: to include it)
2. Use slack_search_public_and_private with query on:{date} plus parameters after={unix_ts_one_hour_ago}, sort="timestamp", sort_dir="desc" — the after parameter windows results server-side, so result-count truncation cannot drop in-window messages; paginate by passing the returned cursor until the response no longer returns one (a partial page can still carry a next cursor). During the first hour of the day (00:00-00:59), also run a second query with on:{yesterday} and the same after timestamp so the window spanning midnight is covered
3. Group results by topic — cluster messages about the same subject together, even when they span multiple channels
4. Per topic: **Topic** (N): key points — [#channel-name](https://{workspace}.slack.com/archives/{channel_id})
5. For notable messages with threads, link to the thread: [thread](https://{workspace}.slack.com/archives/{channel_id}/p{timestamp_no_dot})
6. If no messages found, state that there are none

Construct Slack links from search result metadata: channel ID for channel links, channel ID + message timestamp (remove the dot) for thread permalinks.

2. Gmail Daily Digest (past day)

1. Use gmail_search_messages with query newer_than:1d; if the response indicates more results (next-page token or cursor), keep fetching until exhausted — a busy 24h window can exceed the first page
2. If search results already include sender and subject, use them directly. Only call gmail_read_message for items missing these details (avoid N+1 reads)
3. Group by topic — cluster related subjects and threads together
4. Per topic: **Topic** (N): key points — ["Subject"](https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#all/{messageId}) from sender, listing a link for every message in the topic (do not collapse to a single link when N > 1)
5. If no emails found, state that there are none

Construct Gmail links from the messageId returned by search results. Use the #all/ (All Mail) view in link URLs — #inbox/ breaks for archived, sent, or labeled-out messages that the search still returns.

Output Format

Each invocation emits one section, with a header carrying its own time window:

• Slack: ## Slack Hourly Digest (HH:MM-HH:MM KST)
• Gmail: ## Gmail Daily Digest (past 24h, as of YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM KST) — newer_than:1d is a rolling 24-hour window, not a calendar day

Example structure (one per section — a single invocation emits only its own):

## Slack Hourly Digest (14:00-15:00 KST)
- **Auth service hotfix** (3): deployment discussion and rollout decision — [#channel-a](https://workspace.slack.com/archives/C0123), [hotfix thread](https://workspace.slack.com/archives/C0123/p1234567890)
- **Standup** (1): reminder — [#channel-b](https://workspace.slack.com/archives/C0456)
 
## Gmail Daily Digest (past 24h, as of 2026-06-12 15:00 KST)
- **Billing renewal** (1): ["Subject line"](https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#all/msg123) from sender@example.com
- **Project kickoff** (2): ["Thread topic"](https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#all/msg456) from another@example.com, ["Re: Thread topic"](https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#all/msg789) from third@example.com

When the section has no results, use a single line indicating nothing new.

Cron Usage

/loop 1h /hourly-digest:hourly-digest slack
/loop 1d /hourly-digest:hourly-digest gmail

Plugin skills are namespaced as {plugin-name}:{skill-name}; the bare /hourly-digest form only resolves for a user-level skill installation.
