Let Claude read your inbox and calendar
Rung 3 of 10 · Context + audience
1 · Learn the move · Context + audience
The best context isn't pasted — it's connected. With Gmail and Calendar linked through MCP connectors, Claude reads the actual thread and your actual schedule instead of a summary you typed. The move is still context + audience: point it at the real source and name who the brief is for — you, walking into a specific showing — so it preps you, not a generic reply.
Using my connected Gmail and Calendar: pull the thread with the buyer's agent for my 3pm showing today and give me a one-page brief — where we left off, open questions, and what to confirm on-site. Facts from the thread only. Don't infer anything about the buyers personally.
2 · Your turn — you write the prompt
You have a 3pm showing and a 40-message email thread with the buyer's agent you haven't reread. Gmail and Calendar are connected via MCP. Write the prompt that turns the live thread plus today's calendar into a one-page showing brief.
Remember: the AI sees only your prompt — not this page. If the situation isn't in your prompt, it doesn't exist.
Optional — these shape the output when you run your prompt below, not your score.
