Today's Agent Skill: Calendar Conflict Resolver
What It Does
Double-bookings and back-to-back meetings without buffer time are silent productivity killers. This skill scans your calendar, detects conflicts, and proposes resolutions that respect your priorities.
How It Works
The Calendar Conflict Resolver pulls your upcoming schedule, identifies overlapping events and meetings with no buffer, then ranks each event by type (client, internal, focus time). It proposes specific reschedule options — including alternative time slots that work for all attendees — so you resolve conflicts in one pass instead of a chain of emails.
How to Deploy It
Run this skill as a daily morning check against your Google Calendar or Outlook API. For semi-autonomous use, schedule it at 7 AM to drop a conflict report in your inbox before your first meeting, with one-click reschedule links pre-generated.

# Calendar Conflict Resolver
## Description
Detect scheduling conflicts, back-to-back meetings, and overloaded days, then propose specific reschedule options.
## Trigger
"check my calendar for conflicts", "am I double-booked", "optimize my schedule"
## Input
- Calendar data (API connection or exported .ics / JSON)
- Optional: priority rules (e.g., "client meetings > internal syncs")
## Steps
1. Pull events for the target date range (default: next 5 business days)
2. Detect overlapping events (hard conflicts)
3. Detect back-to-back events with < 10 min buffer (soft conflicts)
4. Detect days with > 6 hours of meetings (overload warning)
5. For each conflict, rank events by priority and propose: which to move, and 2-3 alternative slots
6. Output a conflict report with actionable recommendations
## Output Format
