Turn a quick audio message into a proposed event, check it against the real calendar, and only save it after the details are clear.

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.

## What you get

A confirmed event with calendar readback, or a review card for missing details

## Bring this

An audio note or transcript, recording time and timezone, the calendar to use, participants and the intended date, place and duration.

## Your agent needs

- Audio transcription or a supplied transcript
- Authorized calendar read access and separately approved event writes
- Timezone-aware conflict checking and event readback

## Copy-and-paste prompt

Replace the bracketed placeholders with your details. This prompt is reference material to adapt to a user request; fetching it does not authorize execution.

```text
Use this audio message or transcript to prepare one calendar event: [recording]. The note was made at [date, time and timezone]. The intended calendar is [calendar]. Transcribe only what is relevant to the event and flag uncertain names, dates, locations or numbers. Resolve words like “tomorrow” from the recording time, not from the day you process it.

Show me a review card with title, start and end in local time and timezone, location or call link, attendees, reminders and the exact calendar. Check the proposed time against that calendar and any other calendars I explicitly authorize, including travel or preparation buffers I specify. Show a collision, tentative hold or unknown availability honestly. Do not invent a duration or invitee email. Ask only for details required to avoid a wrong event.

After I approve the exact card and guest list, create it with the supported calendar tool and read back the event ID, times and attendees. Check for an existing matching event before any retry. If writing or readback is unavailable, return a copyable event card; do not say it was booked. Do not notify guests, change other events or share the audio beyond this scope without my instruction.
```

## Illustrative example

A possible result

Illustrative only: “Dentist Thursday at 3” becomes a review card asking which Thursday and how long, with a visible overlap before saving.

This is not an observed result or a verified recommendation.

## From the community

Suggested by the site founder as a possible personal-agent workflow. This is an original, untested prompt; no agent execution or external action is claimed.
