Weekly Focus-Time Defragmenter
Every Friday it scans next week's Google Calendar, finds the scattered 15-45 minute gaps between meetings.
How it runs
The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

What it does
Most calendars look busy but are actually fragmented: a 30-minute gap here, a 20-minute gap there, none long enough to do anything meaningful. This workflow runs once a week, reads your upcoming schedule, identifies the dead-zone fragments, and books consolidated focus blocks into the largest contiguous openings it can find.
When to use it
For anyone whose week fills with back-to-back meetings and who keeps meaning to "find time" for deep work but never does. Run it Friday afternoon so Monday already has protected blocks waiting.
How it works
- 1A weekly schedule trigger fires Friday at 3pm for the upcoming Monday-Friday window.
- 2It pulls all events from Google Calendar for those five days.
- 3Logic computes the gaps between meetings, discards fragments under 30 minutes, and ranks the remaining open windows by length.
- 4It creates 2-4 "Focus block" events in the best windows, capping total booked focus time so the calendar does not feel hijacked.
- 5It posts a Slack summary to your DM listing each protected block and how much fragmented time was reclaimed.
