"content": "## Daily Morning Intelligence Brief \u2014 Gmail + Calendar + GPT-4o-mini + Telegram\n\nFor founders, executives, and busy professionals who want their full day context delivered to Telegram before they open a single app. Every weekday at 8AM this workflow automatically fetches unread emails from the last 24 hours and today and tomorrow's calendar events in parallel, merges the data, sends it to GPT-4o-mini which filters out promotions and noise, and delivers one clean structured brief to Telegram. You wake up with urgent emails, your schedule, tomorrow's preparation, and one recommended focus \u2014 all in one message.\n\n## How it works\n- **1. Schedule \u2014 Every Weekday 8AM** triggers the workflow automatically Monday to Friday\n- **2. Set \u2014 Config Values** stores your Telegram chat ID, Gmail address, name, and timezone\n- **3. Gmail \u2014 Fetch Unread Emails** fetches all unread inbox emails from the last 24 hours in parallel\n- **4. Google Calendar \u2014 Fetch Today and Tomorrow** fetches primary calendar events for today and tomorrow in parallel\n- **5. Code \u2014 Merge Emails and Calendar** reads both parallel branches, formats emails with sender and preview, separates events into today and tomorrow, and builds clean text for GPT\n- **6. AI Agent \u2014 Write Morning Brief** uses GPT-4o-mini to write a 4-section brief: urgent emails only (promotions filtered), today's schedule, tomorrow preparation with tips, and one focus recommendation\n- **8. Code \u2014 Prepare Telegram Message** adds a timezone-aware timestamp footer and a fallback message if GPT fails\n- **9. Telegram \u2014 Send Morning Brief** delivers the formatted brief with Markdown to your Telegram chat\n\n## Set up steps\n1. In **2. Set \u2014 Config Values** \u2014 replace PASTE_YOUR_TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID_HERE, PASTE_YOUR_GMAIL_ADDRESS_HERE, PASTE_YOUR_NAME_OR_COMPANY_HERE, and set your timezone (examples: Asia/Kolkata, America/New_York, Europe/London)\n2. In **3. Gmail \u2014 Fetch Unread Emails** \u2014 connect your Gmail OAuth2 credential\n3. In **4. Google Calendar \u2014 Fetch Today and Tomorrow** \u2014 connect your Google Calendar OAuth2 credential\n4. In **7. OpenAI \u2014 GPT-4o-mini Model** \u2014 connect your OpenAI credential\n5. In **9. Telegram \u2014 Send Morning Brief** \u2014 connect your Telegram Bot API credential\n6. Before first run \u2014 open Telegram, find your bot, and send /start to activate it\n7.
