What it does
Reads your mail for what needs you, holds every follow-up you mention, and drafts replies for you to send yourself. Each morning it can send a short brief of the day. In the calendars you allow it to change, it adds, moves and cancels events, each one after you approve it, and never invites anyone. It never sends mail and never sorts your inbox (that is Mail Triage's job).
Ask it things like
- “What's tomorrow and what should I prep?”
- “Draft a reply to Sarah: Thursday works.”
- “Remind me to chase the plumber Monday if he hasn't answered.”

Missions
Off until you turn them on. Adding the agent schedules nothing.
- Morning brief: Every day at 08:00
- Still waiting on: Every Friday at 16:00
What it knows how to do
- Drafting a replyHow to turn the owner's few words into a reply draft they can send as it is. Read it before drafting any mail.
- Holding a follow upHow to note, raise and close something the owner is waiting on, so it neither slips nor nags.
- Writing the morning briefHow to write the morning brief the Morning brief mission asks for: what goes in, in what order, and when to send nothing.
What it needs
- Better with Calendar; without it, the agent skips what needs it.
- Better with Weather; without it, the agent skips what needs it.
- Better with a mailbox, which you can pick or skip.
How to add it
Agents → Catalogue → Chief of Staff. Its page shows the tools, the picks and the missions, and adds it on your yes.
“Add the Chief of Staff from the catalogue.” He brings up the same page for your yes.
