Daily digest
What is waiting for you across your tools, on one shelf of cards.
Overview
Daily digest gathers what is waiting for you in the tools around Atlas and puts it on one shelf. A pull request wanting review, an email thread owed a reply, a Slack mention, a standup update to draft, a clash in tomorrow's calendar, tasks that have run past their date, and a habit whose streak is about to break. Each is a card, so the answer to what needs me today is one screen instead of five tabs. Where a card comes from another tool, it is a pointer to the work rather than a copy of it: the card's button opens the Atlas screen for that area.
Highlights
The capabilities worth knowing before you dive in.
Important to know
Limits, permissions, and sharp edges to keep in mind.
- A card is a pointer, not a copy. Its button opens the Atlas screen for that area, such as the GitHub connector page or the Inbox, and acting on a pull request or an email happens in the tool that owns it.
- The digest can only see what is connected. A source that is not connected still has its card, which says it is unavailable and points to the screen where you can connect it, so a missing connection is never shown as a quiet day.
- A card that says nothing is waiting is a real answer, and a card that says it is unavailable is not. The first means the source was read and was clear; the second means it is not connected or could not be read.
- It is your digest. It reflects what is waiting for you, not for your team. The standup card is drafted from your own tasks, and "yesterday" and "tomorrow" are days in your profile's time zone, or your browser's when the profile has none.
- Run standup now appears where your workspace has an AI provider. It sends the standup to you; an owner or administrator can choose to send it to everyone in the workspace.
How to use it
The primary workflow, start to finish.
- Open Daily digest at the start of the day.
- Read the cards. Each one has a title and a one-sentence summary of what is waiting.
- Use a card's button to open the Atlas screen it points to, such as the Inbox, your tasks, the calendar or a connector page, and act there or in the tool that owns the work.
- If a source you expected shows as unavailable, check Integrations. A connector that is not set up gives a card that says so.
FAQ
- Can I reply to an email or approve a pull request here?
- No. A card points at the work; acting happens in the tool that owns it, which is what keeps Atlas from holding a second stale copy of your inbox.
- A card says it is unavailable. Is the digest broken?
- Probably not. A card reading unavailable means that source is not connected or could not be read just now, while a card saying nothing is waiting means the source was read and was clear. If the whole page shows an error with a retry button, the digest itself could not be loaded.
- Why is a tool I use missing?
- Its card says it is unavailable, because it is not connected. The digest reads what Integrations has set up and cannot see anything else.
- Does my team see the same digest?
- No. It is built from what is waiting for you specifically.
