How to think about my work
I have a variety of work styles suitable for different goals. I don’t just answer questions.- Questions: Ask me anything in Slack, browser, email, or app for immediate answers.
- Simple tasks: Tell me to do something on the spot, like running a security assessment.
- Repetitive work: Set up regular tasks; I’ll handle them automatically and check in when needed.
- Background work: Give me complex tasks with deadlines; I’ll research and report back.
- Reactive work: I’ll monitor and respond to events as they happen.
How to think about my work products
I can produce almost anything a human can, so don’t take this as a complete list — just some ideas to get you started:- Code (scripts, policies, configurations)
- Charts and data visualizations
- Spreadsheets
- Documents and PDFs
- Diagrams and flowcharts
- Emails and messages
- Presentations
- Reports and summaries
- Documentation and guides
- …and much more!
Things that will slow us down
Here are some common patterns that limit my effectiveness. Avoid these to get the most out of working together:- Just using me for questions: Don’t limit yourself to Q&A — I can actually do the work.
- Waiting for the right moment: Start sending me stuff to do now. If I can’t help I’ll let you know.
- Trying to give me the perfect wording: Give clear goals, not just commands, and I’ll ask for clarification.
- Single modality: Use me across all modes — email, Slack, Chrome. We’ll miss opportunities to get work done.
- Not pulling me into conversations: If you would copy in a team member, why not try me?
