Personal Reviewreview

Daily Review

Multi-phase workflow with checkpoints between phases. Each phase ends with a summary before proceeding.

Variants

Ask which variant if not specified.

Phase: Calendar

Dispatch a read-only sub-agent (Task tool) to scan today's events. See calendar.md.

If the sub-agent reports calendar access denied (the "reason": "no-app-bundle" error), skip silently. Do not prompt to fix permissions. Note "Calendar: skipped (access denied)" and proceed to the next phase.

Otherwise, present time budget (available hours, focus windows, meetings needing prep). Ask user to proceed.

Phase: Things Inbox

See things.md.

Batch items by pattern, ask user for each batch:

• Schedule (today/tomorrow/next week/someday)
• Assign (project/area/standalone)
• Quick do (< 2 min)
• Delete

Goal: inbox count = 0.

After inbox processing, re-query calendar (see Re-Check in calendar.md). If calendar was skipped due to access denied in the initial phase, skip the re-check too. Otherwise, present any new events and updated time budget. Ask user to proceed.

Phase: Notifications

Dispatch read-only sub-agents in parallel (Task tool) for GitHub, GitLab, and Linear. Then triage each interactively.

GitHub Notifications

See github.md.

Group by reason, typical actions:

GitLab Todos

See gitlab.md.

Group by action, typical actions:

Linear Notifications

See linear.md.

Review unread notifications:

• Assignments — start now, keep on radar, defer to Things
• Mentions — read, respond, archive
• Status changes — acknowledge, archive

After all notification inboxes are processed, ask user to proceed.

Phase: Today Triage

See triage.md.

Group, prioritize, defer, and reorder the Today list. Present final order for confirmation.

Summary

Present progress across all phases:

• Time budget from Calendar (or "skipped — access denied" if calendar was unavailable)
• Things inbox processed (count = 0)
• GitHub/GitLab/Linear notifications triaged (done/deferred counts)
• Today list ordered (final count)

Defer-to-Things Format

Items deferred from GitHub/Linear:

• Title: {Source}: {identifier} - {summary}
• Notes: Markdown link to source
• Tags: Source name (GitHub, GitLab, Linear)
