Day 2 challenge
Goal: show value with real productivity tasksTheme: foundation week - agent productivity in actionTime investment: ~10 minutes

What you’ll accomplish today
- Research a contact for an upcoming meeting
- Connect your Google Calendar
- Create a calendar event through conversation
- Experience how agents think and respond to real work tasks
This builds on yesterday’s introduction. You’ll now see Sidekick in action
with real productivity scenarios, not just exploration.
Step 1: research your contact
Let’s start with a classic scenario: you have a meeting with someone, and you want to be prepared. We’ll use Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, as our example. Start a new conversation with Sidekick and try this prompt:
- Searches for current information about Sam Altman (building on yesterday’s web search learning)
- Organizes findings into actionable meeting notes
- Provides context that’s actually useful for conversation
- Includes recent developments and OpenAI updates
Agent learning moment: notice how Sidekick structures information for
practical use, not just information dump. This is the difference between
search and intelligence.
Step 2: connect Google calendar
Now let’s connect your Google Calendar so Sidekick can manage your schedule.- Add the Google Calendar connection from the connections panel
- Complete the OAuth flow when prompted
- Confirm connection in your workspace settings

Google Calendar is already configured in Sidekick. Want access to 2,000+ more
connections? Upgrade to Hypermode Pro.
Step 3: create your meeting
With your calendar connected, let’s schedule that meeting with Sam Altman:
- Creates the calendar event at the specified time
- Includes your research notes in the description
- Confirms the meeting details
