You sort requests from email, chat, forms, and verbal handoffs into one working queue you can review and update throughout the day.

We'll use them to write your prompt.

Make Your Play

Give us the situation. We’ll build the prompt.

Stop relying on memory or inbox position.

Your answers save as you type.

What you'll do

This is the plan inside your prompt. Add your details first. Then follow these steps with ChatGPT or Claude.

01 Collect every open request You bring new requests and unfinished items into one intake list before deciding what to do first.
02 Check each request for missing facts You separate requests that are ready to act on from requests that need details or approval.
03 Set urgency without guessing You apply your actual workplace rules instead of treating every new or senior request as urgent.
04 Assign the next action You turn each request into a concrete move that can be completed, delegated, scheduled, or followed up.
05 Send controlled acknowledgments You confirm receipt and set expectations without promising dates or outcomes you haven't verified.
06 Work the queue and close the loop You review the queue at set points, update stalled work, and record enough closure detail to prevent repeat questions.

Use this when

Use this at the start of your day, after a busy meeting block, or whenever requests are arriving through several channels and work is getting hard to track.
