Part 1 · What the source did

Four routines: a midnight check of the other bots, weekday inbox triage that only advises, a daily post, and a Monday review of last week's posts.

  • Midnight: one bot checks the others and suggests fixes.
  • 08:00 weekdays: inbox triage, advice only.
  • Daily post goes out (our version keeps a human approval).
  • Mondays: review of last week's posts.

The prompt

MIDNIGHT HEALTH CHECK: List my routines and their last run result. For any that failed or produced nothing useful twice in a row, say why and propose a fix. Change nothing. 08:00 WEEKDAYS: Triage my inbox: top 5 needing a reply, what each needs, a suggested reply. Advice only, nothing sent or archived. MONDAY 09:00: Review last week's posts: best and worst performer and one change to try.
🛡
Approval ruleHealth checks propose fixes only. Posting needs your approval each time.

Set it up

  1. Add the midnight check first; it catches broken routines.
  2. Add triage in advice-only mode.
  3. Add the weekly review.

Common failures
