Productivity & Planning
Weekly plans, meeting prep, brain dumps, prioritization.
Prompts that turn an LLM into a chief-of-staff: weekly review templates, meeting agendas, decision logs, OKR drafting, calendar triage.
Generate a personalized weekly review from raw notes
Weekly reviews fall apart when the format is generic. This prompt produces a review tailored to your week's actual themes, not a template.
Prep for a meeting along three axes
Most meeting prep is 'review notes from last meeting.' This prompt forces prep along three distinct axes: what they want, what we want, what could go sideways.
Write a decision log entry that's actually useful in 6 months
Most decisions are recorded with too little context to be useful later. This template forces enough specifics to reconstruct the decision rationale a year later.
Triage next week's calendar against current priorities
Calendar reviews drift toward 'what's coming up.' This prompt forces ruthless triage against current priorities.
Turn a strategy document into a first draft of OKRs
Most OKR-drafting sessions stall because the blank page feels too abstract. This prompt takes the strategy or priorities document you already have and extracts concrete Objectives and Key Results from it, saving the 90-minute whiteboard session.
Convert scattered meeting action items into a project brief
After a kick-off or alignment meeting, you often have a list of action items but no single document that tells a new contributor what the project is, why it matters, and what done looks like. This prompt builds that brief in one pass.
Prioritize a task backlog given real constraints
Standard prioritization frameworks ignore the constraints that actually govern your week — a key person is out, a dependency is blocked, a deadline moved. This prompt applies your real constraints to your backlog and produces a sequenced, defensible list.
Turn messy daily notes into a crisp async standup
Async standups get skipped or padded with filler when you have to write them from scratch. This prompt converts raw notes into a focused update your team can actually scan.
Convert a vague quarterly goal into measurable milestones
Most quarterly goals are written at the vision level and never broken into checkpoints, which means you hit week 10 with no idea if you are on track. This prompt forces specificity.
Run a pre-mortem on a project before it kicks off
Pre-mortems catch failure modes before they cost you. Most teams skip them because writing one from scratch is slow. This prompt does the structured thinking so you can review and challenge the output.
Diagnose why a recurring meeting keeps running over time
A recurring meeting that always overruns is a structural problem, not a discipline problem. This prompt analyzes the meeting design and surfaces the specific fix.
Write a stakeholder update after an unexpected scope change
Scope changes make stakeholders anxious. The update you send in the first 24 hours shapes whether they trust your team or start micromanaging. This prompt drafts a message that is honest without triggering panic.
Design a 90-day plan for starting a new role
Most 90-day plans are too generic to be useful past day 10. This prompt builds a role-specific plan with concrete milestones and the right questions to ask in each phase.
Triage an overflowing inbox after time away
Returning from vacation or a heads-down sprint to 200 unread emails is a real productivity tax. This prompt gives you a structured triage system to process the backlog in one session rather than all day.
Extract every commitment buried in a long email thread
Long email threads are where commitments go to hide. This prompt pulls out every promise, deadline, and open question so nothing slips through the cracks before your next touchpoint.
