When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Newsletters

Example prompts

  • “/spark-recipe-weekly-digest”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. This week's calendar
  2. Unread email breakdown by category
  3. Team status
  4. Recent meeting transcripts
  5. Present the digest

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cb20383. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Spark Recipe Weekly Digest loads about 515 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 32 tokens; SKILL.md has 192 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~32
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~515

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Recipe: Weekly Digest

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
bash
spark events --week

List all meetings and events for the week.

Step 2: Unread email breakdown by category
bash
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
bash
spark team "Team Name"

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

Step 4: Recent meeting transcripts
bash
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.
