# plan-my-day

Turns your priorities and energy patterns into an hour-by-hour schedule for the day. Useful when the morning disappears into triage instead of work.

## What it does

The skill runs in three modes: `quick` returns three priorities with rough blocks, `standard` produces the full hour-by-hour plan, and `deep` adds an energy analysis plus suggestions for the week. `standard` is the default.

Scheduling follows a fixed set of rules. Deep work lands in the morning peak, tasks run in 90-minute stretches with breaks between them, and high-stakes decisions get placed before 15:00. Fixed meetings go in first, buffers sit between major blocks, and email or chat is pushed into the low-energy hours. Only part of the day gets booked, so the plan has room to slip.

You can override the energy windows with flags: `/plan-my-day --peak 9-11,14-16 --recovery 13-14`. Skip that and the skill falls back to the generic intervals from its description, which may not match your actual rhythm — expect to rearrange the blocks by hand.
