Executive Assistant Skills

AI-powered executive assistant skills for Claude Code that fully replace a human EA. These skills were born from a real experiment by Martin Gontovnikas (@mgonto), Auth0's former VP of Marketing/Growth, who discovered that a set of well-crafted Claude Code skills could handle everything his executive assistant used to do — meeting prep, email drafting, action item tracking, and daily digests.

The result: a suite of 5 skills that autonomously research attendees before meetings, draft personalized emails, extract and manage action items in Todoist, and deliver a morning executive briefing — all without human intervention.

Skills

| Skill | Description | |-------|-------------| | meeting-prep | Researches upcoming meeting attendees via OpenClaw, compiles background briefs with talking points, and surfaces relevant context from past interactions. | | action-items-todoist | Extracts action items from meeting transcripts (Granola/Grain) and creates structured Todoist tasks with due dates, priorities, and project assignments. | | email-drafting | Drafts context-aware emails using your communication style, past threads, and meeting notes. Sends via the gog Gmail CLI. | | executive-digest | Generates a daily morning briefing covering your calendar, pending action items, priority emails, and key context for the day ahead. | | todoist-due-drafts | Reviews Todoist tasks approaching their due dates, drafts follow-up emails or messages for items that need outreach, and queues them for review. |

Note: The original repo includes a "humanizer" skill (originally by biostartechnology) for rewriting AI-generated text in a more natural voice. It has been excluded from this plugin as it is a third-party contribution with a separate origin.

Prerequisites

These skills rely on several external tools and services:

• OpenClaw — People research API used by meeting-prep to look up attendee backgrounds, company info, and social profiles.
• gog CLI — Gmail on the Go, a CLI for sending and reading Gmail. Used by email-drafting and executive-digest.
• Granola or Grain — Meeting transcript sources. Action-items-todoist parses transcripts from these tools to extract tasks.
• Todoist CLI — Command-line interface for Todoist. Used by action-items-todoist and todoist-due-drafts to create and query tasks.

Important: Configuration Required

These skills are deeply personalized to mgonto's specific workflow, integrations, and preferences. They will not work out of the box for other users.

To adapt them for your own use, you must create a config/user.json file in the plugin directory with your own settings, including:

• Timezone and locale
• Email accounts (personal, work, aliases)
• Todoist project mappings (which projects map to which areas of your life)
• Meeting tools configuration (Granola vs Grain, calendar source)
• Communication style preferences and signature
• OpenClaw API key

Each skill reads from this config to personalize its behavior. Without it, the skills will fall back to mgonto's defaults, which almost certainly won't match your setup.

See the original repository for the full setup guide and example configuration.
