modbender Reader Deep Dive 🤿
Your reading list shouldn't be a write-only memory. This skill checks what you've saved recently, finds connected ideas from your deep archive (last 3 days, 3 months, or years ago), and sends you a high-signal briefing with context on why you should revisit them.
It turns "I saved that somewhere" into "Here is the timeline of your thinking on this topic."
How it works
- Scans Recent Saves: Checks your Readwise Reader "new" folder for the last 24 hours.
- Identifies Themes: Uses your system's default LLM to figure out your current obsession.
- Temporal Context: Searches your library history and finds relevant items from different timeframes.
- Delivers Briefing: Sends a WhatsApp message with a "Deep Dive" summary connecting your current saves to your past library.
Setup
- Get your Access Token from readwise.io/access_token.
- Set it in your environment:
export READWISE_TOKEN="your_token_here"
Usage
Manual Trigger:
bash scripts/brief.sh
Schedule (Cron): Run it every afternoon at 2 PM:
clawdbot cron add --id reader_brief --schedule "0 14 * * *" --command "bash scripts/brief.sh"
Customization
You can tweak the prompt in prompts/briefing.txt if you want a different tone or format. By default, it uses a clean, WhatsApp-friendly style.
