What it does

• Reads service plans, assignments, and confirmation statuses from Planning Center — read-only, never rewriting
• Detects gaps (unfilled or unconfirmed roles) across all service types, days before Sunday
• Flags missing sheep — ministers at risk of being missed — with in-window alerts
• Surfaces historical fill and confirmation rates so you can see trends over time
• Delivers a daily Shepherd's Briefing with the true readiness picture

How it works

• The MOS connects to your Planning Center Services module via a read-only API bridge
• Each night, it reads all upcoming plans, assignments, and confirmation statuses
• It reconciles assignments against needed positions to find gaps
• It checks confirmation windows and flags ministers who have not responded
• It composes a single daily briefing and delivers it to the right staff member via Telegram

Why it is different

• It does not replace Planning Center — it reads it and adds intelligence on top
• It does not build a new confirmation channel — PCO already handles that well
• It does not chase ministers — it shepherds gaps to the one person who can fix them
• Every operation is logged to the stewardship record for accountability
