Install

copilot plugin install demotivational-calendar@awesome-copilot

Or open The Daily Letdown directly in the Copilot app.

A personal Copilot desktop canvas: a daily tear-off calendar with large day and month typography and 366 original, gently demotivational English quotes. No year is displayed. Each month/day always has the same quote, including February 29. The calendar opens on the local date and follows midnight while viewing today. Previous/next navigation wraps from December to January.

Ask Copilot to open The Daily Letdown or the demotivational calendar. The canvas ID is demotivational-calendar; its get_today action returns today's day, English month, and quote.

Installed under ~/.copilot/extensions/demotivational-calendar/. New Copilot sessions discover the extension automatically. If it was installed while a session was already running, reload extensions or start a new session.

The renderer is a self-contained index.html and works offline. No packages, external fonts, network services, or personal data storage are required. The extension serves it on a loopback-only ephemeral port and closes the server when the canvas closes.

Run the focused checks with node --test calendar.test.mjs.
