Spec the chase sequence
Lesson 3 of 5 · Workflows & automation
1 · Learn the move · Specific task + easy yes
Design a multi-touch chase as steps with timing and an exit condition, then put a human approval on each send so persistence never curdles into pestering - these are people your office works with every week. Ask for one concrete sequence you can approve today. Registered as a Cowork routine, it drafts every chase on schedule and waits for your yes.
You are a workflow designer. Design a 5-touch chase for an unanswered scheduling or document request: the timing of each touch, the one job of each message, a human approval before each send, and a stop rule when they answer. [request type]
2 · Your turn. You write the prompt
You asked for a date three times and a document twice, and every chase was typed fresh when you happened to remember. Write a prompt that designs a five-touch chase with timing, an escalation shape, and a stop rule for when they answer.
Write the prompt for this scenario as given, or swap in a real one from your own work. The score works the same either way.
Remember: the AI sees only your prompt, not this page. If the situation isn't in your prompt, it doesn't exist.
Optional. These shape the output when you run your prompt below, not your score.
