Prompts We Used:

Calendar Time

• Check my calendar and list 6–8 open 30–45-minute slots over the next 10 business days, between 9 AM and 4 PM in my time zone, so I can prepare for my end of year review. Leave 15 minutes buffer before/after other meetings. Return in this format: • Tue Nov 18, 10:30–11:00 AM CT.

Year-End Review 

(Copy and paste into Researcher)

• List my key goals and the measurable outcomes achieved during [review period] For each goal, describe:
  • The specific impact you made (quantitative results, improvements, or milestones)
  • How you collaborated with others, drove cross-team initiatives, or supported organizational priorities.
  • Any innovative approaches, process improvements, or customer-focused actions.
  • Examples of modeling company values (e.g., inclusion, accountability, customer obsession).
  • How your actions contributed to broader team or company objective.

Travel Times

• Tell me about TSA wait times at DFW + American Airlines average departure delays today and tomorrow. Summarize into a travel prep plan and suggest what time I should arrive.
