# Shared Briefing Conventions

Use these conventions across `daily-brief`, `calendar-sentinel`, and `inbox-triage` outputs.

## Priority labels

- **P1 Urgent**: immediate action needed (time-sensitive/blocker)
- **P2 Important**: action needed soon, not immediate
- **P3 Routine**: useful but can wait
- **P4 FYI**: informational, no action required

## Time windows

- **Now**: next 2 hours
- **Soon**: next 24 hours
- **Watch**: beyond 24h or lower confidence risks

## Standard output frame

1. **Now** (P1)
2. **Soon** (P2)
3. **Watch** (P3/P4)
4. **Next actions (1-3)** ordered, concrete steps

## Noise controls

- Prefer one batched update over many small pings.
- Suppress unchanged low-priority repeats.
- If no meaningful change, send a brief all-clear.

## Writing style

- Keep bullets short.
- Include only action-relevant context.
- End with clear next steps.
