A clean operating brief from old chats
Help me write a short operating brief from my prior assistant conversations: my role, current goals, recurring responsibilities, communication style, decisions to bring back for review, and things I do not want. Separate confirmed facts from guesses, let me correct it, and strip private details I do not want imported. Share only the cleaned brief; do not turn guesses into standing assumptions.

A personal digital recipe book
I will send you recipe links or screenshots from Instagram or Facebook. Extract the ingredients and steps, check anything unclear with me, and collect the recipes in one personal digital recipe book (a file or page). This is a workflow we set up, not a built-in automatic feature.

A virtual card with a spending cap
Consider a virtual card with a spending limit or merchant lock to limit exposure. Check provider terms, availability and fees in your country. This does not guarantee that overspending is impossible and does not replace approval before spending.

Tag tasks to find them later
Start requests with a tag such as [TRIP], [BILLS] or [WORK]. Later, ask for a status summary by tag to find a topic in a long conversation. This is a working convention, not a built-in automatic filter.

Set if/then boundaries
Decide in advance what to do if a step fails. For example: "Try to cancel in the portal. If that fails, draft an email to support and save it without sending." This sets a stopping point before any action I have not approved.

Turn a voice brain dump into a checklist
When I have many ideas or a complex plan, I can send a voice note and ask you to turn it into an organized checklist. Check the transcription of important details before acting on them.

Turn subscription receipts into decisions
On a regular schedule, review subscription receipts and renewals, remove duplicates, and list each amount, frequency, next renewal date if known, and source. Mark each keep / cancel / investigate before any change. Before canceling, check when access ends, which family members are affected, the next charge that may be avoided, and any fee. Review and approve the cancellation first. Afterward, save proof and verify no payment remains scheduled. The $500+ figure was the source author's report, not a forecast or verified amount for your account.

The board updates itself
Before and after every task, check my board and update whatever's needed, on your own. I don't want to babysit.
Routines
Evening briefing
Every evening at 20:00 my time, brief me on everything that's open.
Routines

A site that ships itself
Put up a page on Cloudflare Pages and wire it to auto-deploy from GitHub on every push.

Research [topic] and give me a ranked shortlist with sources.
Household
Weekly shopping on autopilot
These are my regular weekly items and store preferences: [list]. Keep one running list so I can text you additions during the week without repeating it. Every [day], check current item prices and availability at the relevant stores, compare the total cost (including fees) and find the cheapest suitable option this time. Build the carts where possible and bring me the comparison and carts for review before any order or spending.
Routines
Follow through, not just the first step
After emailing to arrange an appointment, track the reply and bring me alternative times if needed. If a restaurant takes bookings by phone only, remind me when its reservation line opens. Keep each task moving until the next decision, rather than stopping after the first step.
Accounts
Recurring outreach in Instinct's inbox
Help me move recurring external correspondence, like podcast booking follow-ups, into Instinct's own inbox. Notify me only at decision points, and review any message to another person with me before sending unless I've given you a specific sending grant. Another option is to create a new Gmail account just for the agent and connect it to Instinct; do not use my personal account password.
Accounts
A dedicated account password, not a personal one
If I set up a new account just for the agent, use only that account's password, not my personal account password. Collect and store it through Vault, never in chat. Ask me before connecting or granting account access.
Foundation
Test one workflow, then expand
Start with one defined workflow, such as a daily summary of blog performance from a dedicated account. Check the result and the access boundaries before gradually adding more workflows. You don't need to grant access to your bank, primary email, or social accounts just to try the first workflow.
Household
A shared checklist: an owner and reminder for each item
For a shared checklist, assign each item an owner and a reminder time instead of leaving it as a vague 'we'll take care of it together' task. Check that each person knows their part and agrees on the follow-up and what counts as done. The source describes a family using separate reminders for birthday-party tasks.

Slack

A video pipeline built from code
Make me a short video the code way, not generative AI: write a script of 4-6 frames (title + line + visual card each), build every frame as plain HTML/CSS at 1080x1920 in my brand palette, render each one to PNG with headless Chrome, read every image yourself to check text, overflow and consistency, then stitch them into an MP4 with ffmpeg, up to 30 seconds. For [subject].
Pages
Turn my board into an app
Turn my living board page into an installable app: add a web app manifest and a service worker so it also works offline, design icons for it, and make sure it passes the install checks - I want to open it from my home screen like a real app.
Social
A social media expert on call
Become the social media expert for my [TikTok/Instagram] page: build a baseline of where the page stands today - followers, views, engagement, top posts, posting cadence - learn my niche and my voice, then track the numbers after every post and bring me honest recommendations to grow: what to post, when, and why. Never post or comment for me without my yes.
