Daily Journal Skill for Claude

A passive daily work journal that Claude keeps FOR you so you never have to write it yourself. Append short entries after meaningful work (what was done, what you focused on, artifacts touched) to 01-daily/journal/YYYY-MM-DD.md. Run a guided reflection at night or in the morning. Use when you run /daily-journal, say "log this to my journal", "add to today's journal", "reflect on today/yesterday", or when finishing a meaningful chunk of work in any session.

What it tells the agent to use

found in the instruction text

Task spawns other agents

The instruction itself

as written by the author

Read .claude/skills/daily-journal/SKILL.md and execute it exactly as written — that file is the authoritative

playbook. Then follow .agents/rules/cog.md.

Antigravity substitution: where the playbook delegates to a .claude/agents/<name>

worker, invoke .agents/agents/<name>.md via invoke_subagent instead.

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take huytieu/daily-journal from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
