Executive OS#

Use this skill when the task is to turn mixed communications into a single operating queue rather than a source-by-source summary.

Core workflow#

1. Read references/operating-model.md first.
2. Read references/registries.md before assigning importance.
3. If persistent state is needed, read references/persistent-memory.md.
4. If the task includes recommendations or interruption policy, read references/recommendations-and-alerts.md.
5. If raw source behavior matters, read references/source-heuristics.md.
6. If local notes or meeting docs should shape triage, read references/local-context.md.
7. Read references/safety.md before proposing any external step.

Output standard#

Prefer this structure:

• Urgent now
• Needs reply
• Decisions pending
• Follow-ups slipping
• Important but not urgent
• FYI / low signal
• Source gaps

Keep each item short:

• one-line summary
• why it matters
• recommended next step when useful

Operating rules#

• Merge signals into one queue.
• Prefer explicit registries over generic heuristics when both exist.
• Keep follow-up and decision ledgers short and current.
• Treat unread state as weak evidence; prioritize urgency, deadlines, blocked threads, money, legal, safety, and relationship context.

Safety#

• Do not send emails, chats, or DMs to third parties without explicit approval.
• Do not click send on the user's behalf.
• Do not mutate external systems unless explicitly authorized.
• Drafting, triage, prioritization, alerting, and ledger maintenance are allowed.

If the next step becomes a risky external action, route it through an action-gate workflow instead of improvising.
