prompt.txt
Open the defect register at <REGISTER LOCATION>. List every defect that is not closed, with ID, location, description, responsible contractor, date raised and due date. Group by contractor. Mark items overdue, due this week, or missing a due date or owner. For each contractor with overdue items, draft a short, polite follow-up email that lists their defect IDs, locations and original due dates and asks for a revised completion date. Show me the drafts; do not send them and do not edit the register.

Replace anything in <ANGLE BRACKETS> with your own details. Review outputs before letting an agent send, buy or delete anything.

How to run this

Works with any agent

Steps

  1. Copy the prompt and fill in the parts in angle brackets.
  2. Paste it into whatever agent you already use: a chat assistant, a coding agent, an automation tool, or a script that calls any model API.
  3. Schedule it (every monday at 9 am). Use the agent's own scheduler if it has one, otherwise run it from cron with the expression below.
  4. Give it only the access it needs (inbox, calendar, repo, sheet) and keep sends, purchases and deletes behind your approval.
  5. Review the first two runs, tweak the prompt, then let it run.
