ResendGitHubPerplexityNotebookLMUndermind

Cost: Perplexity free tier or API (pay per use), Undermind free plan, Resend Free, GitHub Actions free minutes.

Set it up

  1. Define the beat

    Write a precise research brief for my digest: topics, must-follow sources, what to exclude, and the format (5 items, 2 lines each, source link).

  2. Build the digest script

    Write a script that calls the Perplexity API (PERPLEXITY_API_KEY) with my brief for the last 24 hours, asks for citations, and returns 5 items as JSON with title, summary and URL. Drop items without a source.

    Docs: docs.perplexity.ai/

  3. Email it

    Format the JSON as a clean HTML email and send it with Resend (RESEND_API_KEY) to my address.

    Docs: resend.com/docs/send-with-nodejs

  4. Run it daily

    Add a GitHub Actions workflow on a daily cron that runs the script with secrets from the repo settings.

    Docs: docs.github.com/en/actions/writing-workflows/cho

  5. Go deeper weekly

    Each week, put the most important papers into NotebookLM and generate an audio overview for my commute.

Please:
1. Ask me 3 short questions about my situation (accounts I have, budget, what I want the output to look like).
2. Propose a step-by-step plan using these tools or cheaper alternatives, with the time and cost of each step. Use official pricing pages; say "check pricing" if unsure.
3. Then do the setup with me one step at a time, waiting for my OK before anything that sends messages, posts publicly, spends money or deletes data.
4. Finish with a checklist to run it again next time.
