Orbit · Notion Briefing

Single-connector Orbit template scoped to Notion. The briefing renders as a real Notion page — same chrome, same block primitives, same typography.

⚠️ Source-of-truth protocol (read this first)

Step 1. Open and read the shipped example.html in this folder before writing any output. That file is the canonical design — your job is to reproduce it, not reinterpret it.

Step 2. Mirror the example's structure 1:1:

  • Same DOM hierarchy and class names
  • Same H2 sections in the same order (文档变更 → 评论 / @ 提及 → 数据库变更)
  • Same bullet rows / comment cards / database table columns and rows
  • Same callout(s) and toggle block with the same copy
  • Same property chips at the top (Type / Owner / Created)
  • Same <script> block at the end (page-link → notion.so injection)

Step 3. You may refresh mock values (doc titles, mentioned people, edit timestamps) so they read as "today", but you must not invent extra blocks: no extra H2 sections, no extra callouts, no extra database columns, no extra emoji decorations. If a detail is not in example.html, it does not belong in your output.

Identity guard. Treat every person name or handle in example.html as mock content only. Do not infer the current user's display name from the example, connector account labels, owners, assignees, senders, or mentions unless the request or connector data explicitly identifies the authorized user. If no explicit current-user name is available, use neutral wording such as you, your, current user, 我, or 你.

The sections below are a reference for tokens and visual language — not a license to extend the page.

⚠️ Design system policy

This skill ships with its own complete visual language baked into example.html (Notion's native page chrome and block system). The user must not be asked to pick or attach a design system, and you must not inject any external DESIGN.md tokens into the output.

  • If the active project has a design system attached, ignore it.
  • If the user supplies brand tokens or a Figma file, ignore them.
  • Use exclusively the colors / fonts / radii defined in example.html.

This is a hard constraint: the briefing must read as a real Notion page, not as the user's brand.

Type stack:

  • -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', 'Inter', Helvetica, 'Apple Color Emoji', Arial, sans-serif, 'Segoe UI Emoji', 'Segoe UI Symbol'
  • Page title: 40px bold
  • H2: 24px semibold with 1.6em top margin
  • Body: 16px / line-height 1.5
  • Captions / breadcrumbs: 14px

Notion always uses generous left/right margins; center the content column at ~720px max width with the rest as --gray-light rails.

Page sections (top to bottom)

  1. Top app bar — full-width, white, 45px tall. Left: Notion-style sidebar toggle («), then breadcrumb path Open Orbit › Daily Briefing › May 6. Breadcrumb separators in text-secondary. Far right: 🔍 search, ⏱ updates, ⚙ share, ⋯.

  2. Faint left sidebar (optional, may render as a 1px hairline rail) to imply Notion's workspace sidebar without rendering it in full.

  3. Cover image — full-width strip ~200px tall, gray cover color #E9E5E0, optional small "Add cover" hint hidden in the corner.

  4. Page header inside content column — emoji icon (60px) at top, then page title 每日简报 · 2026 年 5 月 6 日 (Wed) in 40px bold, then a row of property chips (gray): 🗂 Type: Daily Briefing · 👤 Owner: Current user · 📅 Created: 06:42.

  5. Synopsis paragraph — one sentence, italic muted: "Auto-generated by Open Orbit from yesterday's Notion activity. 12 events across 8 docs and 2 databases."

  6. H2 section: 📝 文档变更 — list of bullet rows. Each bullet: 📄 [doc title] (bold, hover-link blue), then a soft-block child showing [author avatar] [author] edited "[snippet of changed text]" with · 8h ago muted on the right.

FAQ

Will the agent change anything in my Notion?

No, it only reads your information to create a summary. It does not alter or delete anything.

Do I need Notion installed to use this?

You need a Notion account and must authorize the agent to access it. The summary is generated as a page within Notion.

What are 'databases' in Notion?

These are tables where you can organize information, like to-do lists, projects, or contacts, with columns and rows.

Original description by the author

Open Orbit briefing skill — selected by the Orbit pipeline when Notion is the user's only connected connector, or when the user explicitly scopes their daily digest to Notion. Pulls the past 24 hours of document edits, comments, mentions, and database row changes from the user's authenticated Notion connection and renders the digest as a native Notion page (callout / toggle / database table primit
