Useful agents for
boring work.

Small Poke recipes and hosted MCP tools that check the thing, brief context, and draft the next action.

01
Check

Calendar, incident feed, RSS changes, status endpoint.

02
Brief

Only context that changed since the previous run.

03
Draft

One suggested reply, one next action, clear limits.

Tool boundary read first
Poke recipe Hosted MCP tool Scoped credential Operator approval
Status Health endpoint published

Public check returns the current MCP service contract.

Pipeline Check, brief, draft

Each recipe produces context before it proposes action.

Boundary Read-only first

Sensitive integrations start behind explicit scopes.

Model Poke plus MCP

Poke hosts the recipe. TiredAgents hosts the tool.

Small tools with narrow jobs.

The first agents are deliberately compact. They check known sources, summarize change, and hand back a bounded next action.

Weekend Briefing Agent public-data first

Turns recurring catch-up into one clean brief.

Reads the sources you already check, detects what changed, and drafts the smallest useful next action.

Changed 3 items
Noise removed 18 links
Draft ready 1 reply
Incident Copilot operator led

Briefs the incident before it drafts the response.

Collects public status, recent deploy notes, and current symptoms into a short responder note.

Media Stack Doctor local option

Checks a private media workflow without exposing the system.

A local connector can summarize health and draft a fix list.

Boundary pattern scoped

Every tool states what it can read and what it cannot do.

Useful automation starts with explicit permissions and boring receipts.

Poke runs the recipe. TiredAgents runs the tool.

The recipe decides when to check. The hosted MCP tool decides how to gather context, normalize it, and return a draft.

Develop

Write the recipe

Define the recurring check, schedule, sources, and approval point inside Poke.

Preview

Run against safe data

Test with public sources first, then add private scopes only when the boundary is clear.

Ship

Host the MCP tool

Expose a narrow tool contract, status endpoint, and logs that explain what happened.

A noisy check becomes a useful operator note.

TiredAgents is not another place to manage work. It is a thin layer that turns recurring checks into context you can act on.

Before

Check the weekend things again: feeds, logs, status, calendar, media queue, and anything that changed.

After

Three changes need attention. Subscription alert, deploy note, media index lag. Draft reply is ready.

Next action Approve the reply or open Incident Copilot.

Useful because the limits are visible.

Each concept starts with the smallest safe surface and grows only when the operator can see the credential boundary.

Boundary
Default posture
Why it matters
Read access
Read-only first where possible
Drafts can be reviewed before any action leaves the tool.
Data source
Public data before sensitive integrations
Recipes prove value before asking for private scope.
Private systems
Local connector option
Private media and internal tools can stay off the public service.
Credentials
Scoped per tool
Each hosted tool states what it can access and why.

A small hosted surface with receipts.

The stack is intentionally boring: recipes, hosted MCP tools, a status endpoint, and local connector paths for private systems.

Public experiments

Small agents. Clear boundaries.
