Chief of staff inbox triage
Recurring inbox and Slack scan that identifies unanswered work, researches context, and drafts replies without sending.
Check the active communication surfaces on a schedule.
- Scan recent Slack mentions, direct messages, and unread email.
- Identify messages that require a decision, response, research, or scheduling action.
- Pull the relevant context from calendar, docs, prior messages, and project notes.
- Draft replies, but do not send them.
- Rank items by urgency and consequence.
- Update the work log with what is waiting on the user.
Stop when every new message has a draft, a clear no-action reason, or a recorded follow-up owner.
