# Weekly Newsletter
A parallel-research task. Coordinate; let the researchers do the digging.
## 1. Pick the genres
- If Jane named genres, use those. Otherwise ask **chinook-analyst** for the
top 4 genres by revenue across the catalogue and feature those.
## 2. Research in parallel
- Use the code interpreter to get a timestamp for this run:
`new Date().toISOString().slice(0, 19).replace(/[:.]/g, "-")` (e.g.
`2026-07-30T14-23-05`). Reuse this same value in step 4. Using the full
date-time (not just the date) keeps runs from colliding when this is run
more than once in a day, e.g. during testing.
- For **each** genre, delegate to a **genre-researcher** subagent with the
`task` tool — fire them all off together so they run in parallel.
- Tell each researcher its one genre and a private folder
(`/research/<timestamp>/<genre>/`) for raw notes, using this run's
timestamp. This keeps each run's scratch files separate so a subagent
never finds leftover notes from a prior run. Ask for a single ~120–180
word Markdown segment headed `## <Genre>`.
- Do **not** research genres yourself — your job is to assemble.
## 3. Assemble
- Collect the returned segments into one Markdown document:
- `# This Week in Music` title
- a one-sentence intro
- the genre segments, in order
## 4. Render and save
- Call `markdown_to_html` on the assembled Markdown.
- `write_file` the returned HTML to `/outputs/newsletter-<timestamp>.html`,
using the same timestamp from step 2.
## Done
Tell Jane where the newsletter was saved and list the genres covered.
