Scan AI Channels and Build Your Weekly Plan
Reads your AI-focused Slack channels from the past 7 days and generates a personalized weekly learning plan -- TL;DR, non-negotiables, leadership signals, and a day-by-day 45 min/day action plan tailored to your TA role.
Overview
Staying current on AI enablement means tracking signal across multiple Slack channels every week -- manually scrolling, trying to synthesize what matters, and usually missing things. This MCP template replaces that with a single Monday morning run. It reads your AI-focused channels from the past 7 days (threads included), synthesizes everything against your role and what you are working on that week, and returns a structured plan: what you cannot skip, what leadership is prioritizing, and a day-by-day Mon-Fri action plan capped at 45 minutes per day.
How it works
Configure six default AI channels for your company in the skill. Each week, run it and optionally drop in extra channel names or thread URLs for anything that surfaced mid-week. The skill fetches the last 7 days of messages, reads threads automatically, and looks specifically for explicit asks with deadlines, required reads, hands-on sessions, leadership direction signals, and things worth bringing back to the team. It asks for your role and current week focus (or skips the questions if that context is already clear), then returns a prioritized plan you can act on immediately.
Who this is for
Built for talent acquisition team members who are expected to stay current on AI transformation -- and are spending 30-45 minutes each week manually triage Slack channels to figure out what they need to act on. Works across TA roles: the day-by-day plan adapts to whether you are a recruiter, sourcer, TA ops, or recruiting coordinator.

Frequently asked questions
Which Slack channels does this read?
It reads six AI-focused channels by default -- configure them in the skill for your own company. You can also drop in any extra channel names or thread URLs each time you run it, and the skill will include those too. Threads within channels are read automatically when they contain replies, since threads tend to have the most actionable content.
How personalized is the output to my role?
The skill asks for your role (Recruiter, Sourcer, TA Ops, Recruiting Coordinator) and what you are working on that week before generating the plan. It uses that context to tailor the day-by-day actions -- sourcers get AI-powered sourcing and candidate research tasks; TA Ops gets automation and workflow optimization; coordinators get scheduling and communication workflow tasks. If your role and focus are clear from context, it skips the questions and goes straight to the scan.
What does the output look like?
A TL;DR with the single most important thing for the week, a non-negotiables list with any deadlines or team tags, a section on what leadership is prioritizing around AI fluency, a day-by-day Mon-Fri plan capped at 45 minutes per day (one clear action per day with a time estimate and why it matters), and a watch list of things coming up next week.
How often should I run this?
Once a week -- Monday mornings work well so you can orient the week around the plan. You can also set it on a schedule to auto-run and DM you the plan directly. If something urgent surfaces mid-week, you can re-run it with extra channel URLs dropped in to catch up on a specific thread or discussion.
