Role and Objective
- Analyze and categorize a user’s work activities over the past four weeks to produce a concise breakdown of their main workstreams, using data from calendar, email, Teams chats, and documents stored in OneDrive and SharePoint.
Instructions
- Begin with a concise checklist (3–7 conceptual steps) summarizing your planned approach before substantive work begins.
- Review and analyze user activities from the last four weeks, utilizing available sources: calendar, email, Teams chats, and OneDrive/SharePoint documents.
- Identify between 5 and 7 key categories (“buckets”) that represent the major projects or workstreams forming most of the user’s work.
- If more than 7 buckets emerge, merge related categories until there are no more than 7.
- If fewer than 5 are apparent, combine minor or related work into broader, meaningful categories to reach a minimum of 5.
- For each bucket:
- Estimate the percentage of total work time allocated, as an integer.
- Ensure that the sum of all percent allocations equals 100.
- Provide a 1–2 sentence summary describing the primary activities within the bucket.
- If a data source is unavailable, state its exclusion before analysis, enumerate it by name in a top-level array field called “missing_data_sources,” and exclude it from further steps. If all sources are unavailable, output an empty ‘buckets’ array.
- If percent allocations cannot be determined precisely due to missing data, make the best estimation possible based on available sources.
- After forming the output, validate that the buckets array contains 5–7 items, the percent_time fields sum to 100, and missing_data_sources correctly lists omitted sources. Self-correct if any requirement is not met, then proceed.
- “buckets”: An array of 5–7 objects, each with:
- “bucket”: string – name of the project or workstream
- “percent_time”: integer – estimated percent of total work time (sum must be 100)
- “description”: string – 1–2 sentence summary of key activities
- “citations”: string - 1 sentence description of the sources of the data used to create the bucket
- Buckets should be ordered by descending percent_time. Ties may be ordered arbitrarily.
- “missing_data_sources”: Array of strings for any omitted, unavailable sources.
- Do not output anything except the following
- Do not output JSON or YAML; use markdown formatting as specified below.
- Output the results in markdown for local rendering as follows
- A planned apprach and checklist for how you will do this work
- MONTHLY REPORT
- buckets loop
- Sources not available or scanned: missing_data_sources
Verbosity
- Be concise; do not include superfluous content beyond the required structure.
Stop Conditions
- Conclude once the output meets the above JSON schema and all buckets and missing sources are correctly reported.
Additional Notes
- Proceed without additional input unless you lack critical information.
- Set reasoning_effort = medium to reflect the moderate complexity of this categorization and quantification task.

- Expert A presents the strongest arguments in favor of the topic.
- Expert B presents the strongest arguments against the topic.
- Each expert presents two main assertions.
- Each expert directly rebuts the two assertions of the opposing expert.
-
Develop a unified rubric with 3–5 clearly defined criteria (e.g., Evidence Strength, Logical Structure, Persuasiveness, Relevance, Clarity), and use this rubric to score each assertion and rebuttal.
-
During rebuttals, each expert must directly address and critique opposing arguments.
-
After all assertions and rebuttals, validate in 1–2 lines that all major points and rebuttals were covered. If any essential point is missing, insert a corrective segment to address it before proceeding.
-
Conclude with a summary synthesizing both sides’ perspectives, clearly noting key agreements and disagreements.
- Present the rubric and scores for both experts in a single Markdown table. The table should:
- Have rubric criteria as rows.
- Include a separate column for each assertion and rebuttal (e.g., “Expert A Assertion 1”, “Expert B Rebuttal 2”).
- Include a final row summarizing total scores for each column.
-
Set reasoning_effort = high for detailed, rigorous analysis throughout the debate. Ensure the output is thorough but avoid unnecessary verbosity.
- Default to using plain text formatting. If markdown elements are used, apply code blocks and table formatting as specified; otherwise, avoid unnecessary formatting.
Provide output in the following sections, in order:
- Checklist
- Expert Presentations
- Expert A Assertions
- Expert B Assertions

8. Personal Self Improvement Planner
Role and Objective
Create a personalized weekly self-improvement routine that addresses four key dimensions: Physical (exercise/health), Mental (learning/growth), Social/Emotional (relationships/service), and Spiritual (values/meaning). The routine must fit within a user-specified weekly time limit (TIME_AVAILABLE), ensure activities are realistic, sustainable, and balanced, and honor each user’s individual religious and social background when determining activity specifics.
Plan First
Begin with a concise checklist (3-7 bullets) outlining the steps you will take to generate the routine, ensuring the plan covers:
- Gathering user input (including religious and social background)
- High-level understanding of needs
- Goal setting for each dimension
- Activity selection tailored to user background and constraints
- Time allocation with appropriate scheduling (e.g. avoiding placing physical exercise during the hottest part of the day)
- Ensuring growth and progression over time
Instructions
- Ask the user for their TIME_AVAILABLE (total hours or minutes per week).
- Ask specific questions for each dimension to understand user preferences, needs, constraints, religious and social background, and broader life context for Physical, Mental, Social/Emotional, and Spiritual activities.
- For each item that will be included in the routine, provide detailed context, including what the activity is, why it’s chosen, how it fits the user’s background, and how it can realistically fit into the user’s life.
- Structure the planning process to move from high-level understanding, to dimension goals, to specific activities, to exact calendared time blocks.
- Block explicit periods for each activity on the weekly calendar, specifying appropriate day(s), time(s) (e.g. avoiding uncomfortable or impractical scheduling), and duration. Ensure the description allows the user to understand exactly when and what to do.
- Distribute time carefully and proportionately across all four dimensions, prioritizing balance, sustainability, and personalized appropriateness.
- Make sure that the total time allocated to activities does not exceed TIME_AVAILABLE.
- Avoid overwhelming the user with excessive activities or time commitments.
- Ensure that chosen activities are designed for progression and growth over time, preventing stagnation.
Present the routine as a weekly schedule with explicit time blocks for each selected activity under each dimension. Clearly state the dimension, the activity, the scheduled time block, and a brief, actionable description for each entry. Make sure all scheduled activities precisely sum to TIME_AVAILABLE.
Post-action Validation
After creating the plan, validate that (1) all four dimensions are represented, (2) total time does not exceed TIME_AVAILABLE, (3) activities are actionable, brief, and specifically scheduled, (4) activities honor user background and are scheduled at appropriate times, and (5) activities show potential for growth over time.
Verbosity
- Be concise in schedule descriptions.
- Activities must have clear, brief details and time blocks.
Stop Conditions
- Complete upon generating a routine that fits the user’s time constraint, provides specific time-blocked entries, covers all four dimensions, and meets all outlined validation criteria.
Post-schedule User Options
After presenting the routine, ask the user if they are satisfied with the current plan or if they would like to optimize it further. Additionally, offer the user the option to receive a printed-out calendar, an ICS file to import into their calendar, or both.

“I’m struggling with [SPECIFIC SITUATION/PROBLEM]. Break this down into two lists: 1) Things within my Circle of Influence (what I can directly control or impact), and 2) Things in my Circle of Concern (what I worry about but can’t control). For each item in my Circle of Influence, give me 3 specific actions I can take this week to make progress.”
15. Put First Things First (Priority Matrix Master)
“Here’s my current to-do list: [PASTE YOUR LIST]. Categorize each item using Covey’s 4 Quadrants: Q1 (Urgent/Important), Q2 (Not Urgent/Important), Q3 (Urgent/Not Important), Q4 (Not Urgent/Not Important). Then create a weekly schedule that maximizes Q2 activities and minimizes Q3/Q4. Show me what to eliminate, delegate, or reschedule.”
16. Think Win-Win (Conflict Resolution Coach)
“I’m in conflict with [PERSON/SITUATION] over [SPECIFIC ISSUE]. Help me find a Win-Win solution by: 1) Identifying what I really want from this situation, 2) Understanding what the other party likely wants, 3) Finding creative alternatives that satisfy both parties’ core needs, 4) Drafting a conversation starter that leads with empathy and mutual benefit.”
17. Seek First to Understand (Empathetic Listening Guide)
“I need to have a difficult conversation with [PERSON] about [TOPIC]. Before I share my perspective, help me practice empathetic listening. What questions should I ask to truly understand their viewpoint? How can I reflect back what I hear to show I’m listening? Give me a conversation framework that prioritizes understanding over being understood.”
18. Synergize (Creative Collaboration Catalyst)
“I’m working with [TEAM/PERSON] on [PROJECT/CHALLENGE] and we keep hitting roadblocks. Our different approaches are: [DESCRIBE DIFFERENT VIEWPOINTS]. Instead of choosing sides, help us find a ‘third alternative’ that combines the best of our perspectives and creates something better than either approach alone. What creative solutions might we be missing?”
20. The 80/20 Analyzer
“Analyze my current [WORK/BUSINESS/LIFE AREA]: [DESCRIBE YOUR SITUATION]. Apply the 80/20 principle at 3 levels: 1) What 20% of activities produce 80% of my results? 2) Within that 20%, what 20% produces 80% of THOSE results (the 4%)? 3) What 80% should I eliminate or delegate immediately? Give me a specific action plan to focus only on the vital few.”
21. Worst-Case Scenario Planner
“I’m considering [BIG DECISION/CHANGE] but I’m paralyzed by fear. Walk me through the following fear-setting exercise: 1) What’s the worst that could happen if I do this? (Be specific) 2) How could I prevent each worst-case scenario? 3) How could I repair the damage if it happens? 4) What’s the cost of inaction over 6 months, 1 year, 3 years? Make this analysis brutally honest.”
22. The Minimum Effective Effort
“I want to achieve [SPECIFIC GOAL] but I’m overcomplicating it. What’s the absolute minimum effort/time/resources needed to get 80% of the desired result? Break this down into: 1) The ONE thing that would make the biggest impact, 2) What I can eliminate without losing results, 3) A minimalist daily/weekly routine to maintain progress. Make it so simple a lazy person would actually do it.”
23. The Deconstructionist (Reverse-Engineering Master)
“I want to achieve what [SUCCESSFUL PERSON/COMPANY] has achieved in [SPECIFIC AREA]. Reverse-engineer their success: 1) What are the 3-5 core principles they follow? 2) What do they NOT do that most people waste time on? 3) What’s their unfair advantage I could replicate? 4) Create a step-by-step blueprint to achieve similar results in 6 months instead of 6 years.”
24. The Contrarian Strategist (Opposite Day Success)
“Everyone in [MY INDUSTRY/AREA] does [COMMON APPROACH]. What if I did the complete opposite? Analyze: 1) What conventional wisdom might be wrong? 2) What would happen if I zigged while everyone else zagged? 3) Historical examples of successful contrarian approaches in similar fields, 4) A specific contrarian strategy I could test with minimal risk but maximum upside.”
25. The Rapid Skill Acquisition Hack (Learn Anything in 20 Hours)

Create a Tim Ferriss-style learning plan: 1) What are the 20% of fundamentals that cover 80% of use cases? 2) What’s the fastest way to practice/test these fundamentals? 3) Who are the best practitioners I should model? 4) What mistakes do beginners make that I can avoid? 5) Design a 20-hour practice schedule to reach ‘good enough’ proficiency.”
26. The Flow Zone Calibrator (Challenge-Skill Balance Master)
“I want to enter flow state while working on [SPECIFIC TASK/PROJECT]. Help me apply Csikszentmihalyi’s challenge-skill balance: 1) Rate my current skill level (1-10) for this task and identify specific competencies, 2) How can I adjust the challenge level to match my skills perfectly? 3) If it’s too easy, what constraints or complexity can I add? 4) If it’s too hard, how can I break it into manageable sub-challenges? Design the optimal difficulty curve that keeps me in the flow channel between boredom and anxiety.”
27. The Clear Goal Architect (Purpose Clarity Generator)
“I’m working on [PROJECT/ACTIVITY] but feeling scattered and unfocused. Using Csikszentmihalyi’s clear goals principle: 1) What are the specific, measurable outcomes I want from this session? 2) How can I break large goals into immediate, actionable micro-targets? 3) What does ‘success’ look like minute-by-minute during this work? 4) How do I create feedback loops to track progress in real-time? Transform my vague intentions into crystal-clear objectives that pull me into flow.”
28. The Distraction Elimination Expert (Attention Merger Specialist)
“I keep getting pulled out of focus by [SPECIFIC DISTRACTIONS]. Help me create Csikszentmihalyi’s complete absorption: 1) What environmental changes remove friction from my attention? 2) How do I handle internal distractions (worries, random thoughts) without breaking flow? 3) What pre-activity ritual signals my brain to merge action and awareness? 4) How can I make the activity so engaging that distractions naturally fade? Design a distraction-proofing strategy that creates effortless concentration.”
“I’m working on [SKILL/ACTIVITY] but can’t tell if I’m improving or making mistakes. Using Csikszentmihalyi’s immediate feedback principle: 1) What are the micro-signals that indicate I’m performing well or poorly? 2) How can I set up real-time feedback systems for this activity? 3) What tools or methods give me instant performance data? 4) How do I train myself to recognize subtle feedback cues? Create a feedback system that keeps me locked in optimal performance without breaking concentration.”
30. The Self-Consciousness Eraser (Ego Dissolution Facilitator)

Help me apply Csikszentmihalyi’s loss of self-consciousness: 1) What mental techniques shift focus from self-judgment to task engagement? 2) How do I reframe mistakes as information rather than identity threats? 3) What mantras or mindsets help me become one with the activity? 4) How can I make the work itself more compelling than my ego concerns? Design an approach that dissolves the gap between doer and doing.”
“I want to experience that magical ‘time disappearance’ while working on [SPECIFIC ACTIVITY]. Using Csikszentmihalyi’s transformed sense of time: 1) How do I structure my work environment to minimize time awareness? 2) What level of task immersion naturally distorts time perception? 3) How can I use music, lighting, or other sensory cues to enhance temporal flow? 4) What preparation helps me surrender control of time and trust the process? Create conditions where hours feel like minutes because I’m completely absorbed.”
32. The Autotelic Experience Creator (Intrinsically Motivated Activity Designer)
“I’m struggling to find [WORK/ACTIVITY] inherently rewarding - it feels like drudgery. Help me apply Csikszentmihalyi’s autotelic principle: 1) How can I reframe this activity to focus on intrinsic rather than external rewards? 2) What aspects of the work itself can I find genuinely fascinating? 3) How do I connect this task to my deeper values and curiosity? 4) What game-like elements can I add to make the process inherently enjoyable? Transform necessary work into activities I want to do for their own sake.”
33. The Deep Work Session (Distraction-Proof Planner)
“I have [TIME AVAILABLE] to work on [SPECIFIC PROJECT/TASK] that requires deep concentration. Using Cal Newport’s approach, help me design an optimal deep work session: 1) What’s the exact scope I should tackle in this timeframe? 2) What potential distractions should I eliminate beforehand? 3) What’s my shutdown ritual when finished? 4) How do I structure breaks if this is a long session? Create a detailed session plan that maximizes cognitive output and prevents attention residue.”
