Read the announcements that affect the shares you hold
Every morning, WebRun signs into CommSec, lists your holdings and watchlist, reads the company announcements published against each one since yesterday, posts a plain summary to Slack before the open, and opens a Trello card for any announcement that needs you to decide something.

How do I get a daily summary of announcements on my shareholdings?
Every morning before the open, WebRun signs into CommSec, lists your holdings and watchlist, and reads the company announcements published against each code since yesterday. It posts a plain Slack summary with no recommendation attached and opens a Trello card for anything carrying a deadline, so nothing arrives as a surprise.
- Announcements on your own holdings are read before the market opens
- Nothing is bought, sold or recommended: the digest only describes
- Announcements with a deadline get a dated card so they are not missed

Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it buy or sell anything?
No, never. WebRun reads announcements and writes a summary. It does not place, amend or cancel orders, and it holds no order permissions of any kind on your CommSec account.
Does it tell me what to do about an announcement?
No. The summary describes what was announced in plain language and stops there. WebRun gives no recommendation and no financial advice, because that decision is yours or your adviser's.
What if a holding had no news?
The code still appears in the Slack post, marked as having no announcements, so you can tell the difference between a quiet morning and a run that missed something.
