Demo · invented family, invented week

Nobody here is real. The Okafor-Reyes household, Brightwater Elementary, and every name below were made up to show what the output looks like. A real one is private and looks exactly like this with your own week in it.

The week shown is deliberately a bit of a mess, because a calm week would not demonstrate anything. Everything flagged below is a thing that was already going to happen and had not been noticed yet.

Week of March 9

Okafor / Reyes Amara, 7 · Theo, 4 Updated Sun Mar 8

Act now or pay later

  1. Summer camp registration opens Wednesday, 9am Wed Mar 11 Riverside day camp filled in four days last year and Amara's week sold out first. You have not decided which weeks you want, and the decision takes a conversation, not a click. Registration is not the deadline — agreeing the weeks by Tuesday night is.
  2. Spring break flights are inside the window and climbing now Apr 6–13, four seats together. Domestic peak wants 3–4 months of lead and you are at seven weeks. Fares on this route have moved about $60 a seat since February. Four seats makes that $240, and waiting another fortnight typically costs the same again.
  3. Theo's dentist is 14 months overdue overdue Last cleaning was 2025-01-12. The recall is six months. Nothing has prompted this because nothing ever does — there is no deadline attached to a checkup, which is exactly why it drifts. The practice books six weeks out.
  4. Class picnic moved to Saturday and your calendar still says Sunday Sat Mar 14 Priya posted the change in the class chat on Thursday night. The original went on the calendar three weeks ago. You have a sitter booked for Saturday afternoon for something else.

From the class chat

Priya (class rep) · Thu 10:14pm

The picnic moved, and this is the message that does it.

"Change of plan everyone — park is booked Sunday for a 10k so we're moving the picnic to SATURDAY 11am, same spot by the big oak. Sorry for the short notice!"

Priya · Thu 10:21pm

"Also if anyone can bring a folding table that would be amazing 🙏"

Nobody has answered this yet. Offering is cheap and it is the kind of thing that gets remembered.

Dan (Theo's class) · Wed

Each child brings a plant for the garden bed on Friday. Not mentioned in any school email.

Filtered out

Forty-one other messages this week: a lost water bottle, thank-yous, a long thread about parking. None of it needed you.

What you are looking at

This is the weekly output of a Claude plugin that reads your school mail, your calendar, your task list, and your class group chat, and tells you what is coming before it becomes expensive or embarrassing.

It works backwards from deadlines rather than forwards from today, so camp registration lands in your list in December rather than March. It surfaces the second task behind the first — a party invitation is an RSVP and a gift and a ride and a calendar block. And it refuses to invent facts about your children, so it says "I do not know when his last cleaning was" rather than guessing.

It is free and open source, MIT licensed. Your data stays in a folder you choose and nothing personal goes to the repo.
