# Let your agent run the weekly review you keep skipping Canonical URL: https://agentsidequests.com/ideas/run-a-weekly-review-of-your-calendar-tasks-and-open-loops/ Markdown URL: https://agentsidequests.com/ideas/run-a-weekly-review-of-your-calendar-tasks-and-open-loops/index.md Bring your calendar, task lists and loose ends to a short guided review. Leave with an updated waiting-for list, a next action for each active project, and a week that matches your actual capacity. This is an original editorial prompt, not a run-tested result. Examples are illustrative, not observed outcomes. Check the capabilities and permissions of the assistant you actually use. Category: Home & life admin Type: Ongoing ## What you get A guided weekly review, a reconciled action list and three realistic priorities ## Bring this Recent and upcoming calendar entries, task and project lists, an inbox or open-loop register, current priorities and the time available for the review. ## Your agent needs - Calendar and task exports or explicitly authorized read access - A saved review log and project/action register - Scheduling for an optional recurring review reminder; separate permission to edit connected apps Missing a connection? Paste or attach the relevant information yourself. ## Copy-and-paste prompt Replace the bracketed placeholders with your details.

Use [calendar, task list, project notes, inbox and open-loop register] for [the previous seven days and next fourteen days], in [timezone]. If an integration is unavailable, work from exports or pasted notes and mark what you could not check. Prepare a short agenda, then guide me through it one section at a time. First collect loose notes and unresolved asks into one inbox. Review the past calendar for unfinished follow-ups and the upcoming calendar for preparation, travel time and deadlines. Reconcile tasks with the actual evidence: a calendar event having ended does not prove its work is finished. For each active project, identify its intended outcome, one concrete next action and any dependency. Separate things I can do, items waiting for someone else, scheduled commitments, and ideas for later. If a project lacks a next action or owner, ask a focused question. Reuse existing task IDs and the open-loop register rather than creating duplicate reminders. Help me choose at most three priorities based on [goals and available capacity]. Identify what to defer, renegotiate or drop; do not turn every idea into an urgent task. End with a concise review note, a proposed list of changes to my task system, and the first action for the next work session. Ask before modifying calendars or task lists, sending follow-ups or deleting anything. Keep an append-only review history, with any correction clearly dated. If I want this recurring, confirm [day, time, timezone and reminder destination], save it only through a supported scheduler, and report its verified status. Otherwise return a reusable review checklist I can run manually. ``` ## Illustrative example Friday ends with Monday already started An illustrative review catches an unanswered quote, a meeting that needs a document, and a project whose next step is unclear. It produces three realistic priorities and parks a low-priority idea for later instead of adding another urgent task. This is not an observed result or a verified recommendation. ## From the community Suggested by the site founder and developed into an original prompt. This workflow has not been run-tested. ## Make it more you Run a ten-minute personal review or a household version. The open-loop tracker holds the records between sessions; this review is the conversation that decides what matters next. ## Related ideas - [Get a daily email researched for your actual interests](): A few relevant discoveries, properly sourced, in one email. Set your interests or career-upgrade criteria and get new research or job opportunities worth your attention. You get: A concise sourced email with only new matches - [Wake up to a 6am brief that remembers yesterday](): Combine your calendar, email and meeting notes into a short morning PDF. Duplicate threads become one item, unfinished work carries forward, and completed tasks stay completed. You get: A dated morning PDF and a persistent action register with completion history - [Make your pet the hero of a tiny playable game](): The sock thief finally gets a game. Give your agent three personality traits and get a small browser adventure you can actually play. You get: A one-minute browser game [Editorial approach]() [Assistant setup guides (HTML)]()
