/today — Morning Briefing
- Get today's date. Read
for overtraining warning signs andknowledge/recovery-overtraining.md
for workout execution guidance.knowledge/workout-types.md - Fetch data using MCP tools (call them directly, in parallel where possible):
- Events endpoint for the next 14 days (oldest=today, newest=today+13) — today's workout plus the full training block ahead for context
- Wellness endpoint for the last 3 days (oldest=today-2, newest=today) — trend context, not just a snapshot
- Fitness endpoint for the last 7 days to show trend
- Weather endpoint using the athlete's lat/lon from their profile — current conditions and forecast
- Zones are cached in
— skip the athlete endpoint unless the zones section is missingathlete/profile.md
- Display:
- Today's Workout: Name, type, planned distance/duration. If the workout has structured steps, show target zones/paces using the athlete's actual zone values. If rest day, say so.
- This Week / Next Week: Brief overview of the 2-week plan ahead — session names, days, types. Highlight the training block context (build week? recovery week? race week?) so today's workout makes sense in the bigger picture.
- Wellness: Sleep, HRV, resting HR, fatigue, mood (whatever is available)
- Form Status: Current TSB with label (fresh/neutral/tired/fatigued)
- CTL/ATL: Current values and 7-day trend direction
- Weather: Current conditions and today's forecast (temp, feels-like, wind, precipitation, UV). Flag heat/cold/rain concerns that affect the workout — suggest timing adjustments, hydration, or gear.
- Check data freshness. Look at today's wellness
timestamp. If it's more than 1 hour old (or missing entirely), warn the athlete that their device may not have synced recently — wellness and fitness numbers may be stale. Suggest they open Garmin Connect (or their watch app) to trigger a sync, then ask you to re-runupdated
. Keep the warning brief: one line, not a blocker./today - End with a one-line recommendation grounded in the knowledge base (e.g., reference workout purpose from
, or flag recovery concerns perknowledge/workout-types.md
)knowledge/recovery-overtraining.md - Flag any injury risk signals (volume spike, sustained negative TSB, poor sleep) using criteria from
knowledge/injury-prevention.md
