The Morning Brief

The Morning Brief is Stokk's daily ranked list of suppliers Claude thinks you should order from today, produced by Overnight Intelligence. Open it at /purchasing/brief.

What's on a card

Each card is one supplier. The header shows:

• Decision badge — order now, wait, or watch.
• Total value & SKU count — what the draft PO adds up to in the supplier's currency.
• Cover horizon — how many days of stock the draft covers, e.g. "142-day cover". This is sized as cycle length + lead time + safety stock, not just the gap to the next order.
• Next window — when Claude expects to evaluate this supplier again.

The body has three layers:

• Reasoning — one paragraph explaining the decision and how the cover horizon was chosen.
• Flags (orange) — operational constraints: MOQ, freight terms, payment terms, supplier shutdowns, stockout risks Claude wants you to check.
• Optimization notes (blue) — observations from the data: parity to keep, slow movers to skip, mix shifts to consider next cycle.

Acting on a card

Order-now cards have two buttons. They're deliberately limited — Stokk never sends a PO to a supplier without you opening it first.

• View PO — opens the PO composer at /purchasing/suppliers/[id]/new-po with the brief's recommended quantities pre-filled. The composer also shows live stock and sales for each line, so you can sanity-check the recommendation against what's true today before submitting.
• Cancel PO — closes out the brief without ordering. The card disappears and Stokk records who cancelled and when, so the brief stays auditable.

If you already have a draft PO open for this supplier (started in a previous session), the composer keeps your work-in-progress instead of overwriting it with the brief's quantities.

Watch decisions

A watch means Claude saw something off (forecast spike, missing data, stuck PO) and isn't confident either way. Open the supplier page and decide manually before either ordering or cancelling.
