Work & OperationsDone with custom-built or unnamed agent Mar 11, 2026
Plan the workday across calendar, tickets, email, and docs
A planning agent that works across Google Calendar, Linear, Gmail, and Google Docs through MCP.
- What They Did
- Kim Maida built a dashboard with a chat agent, Todaygent, backed by an MCP server. One tool fetches Calendar, Gmail, Linear, Drive and other sources in parallel, scores tasks, and caches them in a local JSON file. Access is read-only. Keycard swaps one login for short-lived, per-source tokens. The agent only dismisses or reprioritizes tasks locally, after asking.
- How It Went
- She uses it daily. Token exchange adds about 150–250ms per dashboard load. Early on the agent re-fetched data, dropped links and falsely claimed actions it couldn't take; a detailed system prompt addressed this. She says reproducing her prioritizing is an ongoing effort.
- Worth Knowing
- Keycard is in Early Access, and the author works there. It's a personal local tool, and a commenter warned it isn't production-secure.
Try it yourself with custom-built or unnamed agent
Plan my workday using my [Google Calendar], [ticket tracker, e.g. Linear], [Gmail], and [Google Docs]. Look at today's meetings, tickets due or assigned to me, and emails needing a reply, then propose a time-blocked schedule with priorities. Don't send, accept, or edit anything until I approve; stop once I have the plan and a list of suggested replies.
