Digest Reports
Generate AI digest reports with Nebula — daily or weekly Slack channel summaries organized by topic with key decisions and action items highlighted.
What you'll build
Nebula reads through your busiest Slack channels, groups messages by topic, highlights decisions and action items, and posts a clean digest so your team can catch up in 30 seconds instead of scrolling through hundreds of messages.
What to say
Summarize everything that happened in #product and #engineering on Slack this week. Group by topic and highlight decisions. Post to #weekly-recap.
Reading #product and #engineering... Found 142 messages this week.
Digest posted to #weekly-recap. 3 decisions highlighted, 5 topics covered, 4 action items flagged.
Adjust the channels, timeframe, and how you want the summary organized. You can ask for daily digests, weekly recaps, or summaries of specific date ranges.
What happens
Nebula reads all messages from the target channels
Your Slack Agent fetches every message from #product and #engineering within the specified timeframe. It pulls the full message text, who posted it, and any thread replies so nothing important gets missed.
Messages are grouped by topic
Nebula reads through all 142 messages and clusters them into logical topics like "mobile redesign," "API migration," and "Q2 planning." Related threads and side conversations get rolled into the right group.
Decisions and action items are highlighted
Within each topic, Nebula identifies anything that looks like a decision ("we agreed to ship v2 on Thursday") or an action item ("@sam will update the staging environment by EOD"). These get called out explicitly so they don't get buried.
The digest is posted to your recap channel
Nebula compiles everything into a clean summary and posts it to #weekly-recap. It looks something like this:
