- inbox and calendar briefings
- partner follow-up drafts
- stale task reminders
- recurring public-safety scans
Use Another Tool When
- event latency matters more than reasoning: use Make.com or n8n
- a non-agent system must own execution: use n8n or Make.com
- the task is only a typed external tool call: use MCP
- the task needs multiple parallel repo workers: use a Starlight queue
