Prompt · Workflow automation
Design an automation for a manual workflow
Turn a repetitive manual process into a concrete automation plan.
Recommended context
The current steps, the tools you use, and how often it runs.
The prompt
I want to automate this workflow.
Current steps: {{steps}}.
Tools available: {{tools}}.
Frequency: {{frequency}}.
Give me:
1. Which steps are worth automating and which are not (with reasoning).
2. A concrete automation design (trigger, steps, tools, where a human stays in the loop).
3. Failure modes and how to handle them.
4. A simple first version I could ship this week.
Be pragmatic about effort versus payoff.Variables to customize
- {{steps}}
- The current manual steps
- {{tools}}
- Tools/systems you use
- {{frequency}}
- How often it runs
Good follow-ups
- Write the spec for the first version as a ticket.
- What should I measure to know the automation is working?
