The prompt

Summarize my notes from this week.

Notes are useful when they get re-read. alfred_ does the re-reading and surfaces the patterns, decisions, and open questions so you don’t have to scroll back through everything.

What alfred_ does

  1. Reads notes within the scope you specified (time range, project, tag)
  2. Identifies recurring themes, decisions, and open questions
  3. Returns a compressed summary: key points, decisions made, things still open
  4. Optionally drafts a status update or handoff brief from the summary

Tips

  • Be specific about scope: “this week” vs “the Acme project notes” vs “all my 1:1 notes”
  • Pair with writing: “Summarize the notes, then draft a status update for my CEO”
  • For long projects: weekly summaries make better long-term memory than monthly ones

Variations

  • What have I been writing about?
  • Pull the key points from my notes since Monday.
  • Give me a recap of my notes from the Acme project.
  • Summarize my meeting notes from this month.

Best for

Friday reviews, project handoffs, status updates to your manager, or trying to remember what you decided three meetings ago.
