I want help writing clear rules for {{an email assistant / my email filters}}.

My job: {{role}}
People whose emails always matter: {{names, domains or roles}}
What wastes my time: {{e.g. newsletters, cold sales pitches, automated alerts}}
Things that must never be sent without me: {{e.g. anything to clients, money, dates}}

Write:
1. A short set of plain-language rules (maximum 12), grouped as
   archive / label / draft a reply / ask me first / never touch.
2. For each "draft a reply" rule, one example of the tone I want.
3. Three edge cases where these rules could go wrong, and how to handle them.
4. A one-line curfew rule for when the assistant should not send anything.

Brain-Dump to Three Priorities

Empty your head, then get back three priorities, a realistic plan and permission to ignore the rest.

Here's everything on my mind right now, in no order:

{{brain dump}}

I have about {{hours}} hours of focused time today, plus {{fixed commitments}}.

1. Sort everything into: must do today / could do today / not today.
2. Pick THREE priorities for today. For each, say why it made the cut.
3. Make a realistic schedule for the focused time, with 15-minute buffers.
   Assume each task takes 1.5x longer than I'd guess.
4. For the "not today" list, suggest which items can be deleted,
   delegated or scheduled, and when.
5. Name the one task I'm probably avoiding, and suggest a five-minute
   first step for it.

Meeting Notes to Owners and Deadlines

Turn messy meeting notes or a transcript into decisions, action items with owners, and open questions.

Here are notes or a transcript from a meeting about {{topic}}:

"""
{{notes}}
"""

Attendees: {{names and roles}}

Produce:
1. Decisions made (only things that were actually agreed).
2. Action items as a table: task | owner | deadline | source quote.
   If no owner or deadline was stated, write "UNASSIGNED" or "NO DATE".
   Don't guess.
3. Open questions nobody answered.
4. A three-sentence summary for someone who missed the meeting.

Flag anything that sounds like a decision but might have been just an idea.

The Friday Weekly Review

A 15-minute guided weekly review: what happened, what slipped, and what next week is really for.

Guide me through a 15-minute weekly review. Ask me one question at a time
and wait for my answer before moving on.

Questions to cover:
1. What did I finish this week? (Ask me to list, then celebrate one item specifically.)
2. What slipped, and was it the plan or the week that was wrong?
3. What's one thing I learned or would do differently?
4. Looking at next week's calendar ({{paste calendar or key commitments}}),
   what's the ONE outcome that would make it a good week?
5. What will I say no to next week to protect that outcome?

At the end, give me a five-line summary I can paste into my notes,
and one gentle observation about any pattern you noticed.
