Auditing Personal Workflows with Codex
jasonkwon · x · 2026-07-17
This repost provides a prompt you can directly feed to Codex: ask the model to review your daily Slack messages, emails, calendar, and computer activity to identify tasks that can be automated or handled more efficiently.
The requirements are:
- Identify and prioritize automatable items
- Cite specific patterns and estimate time saved versus implementation costs
- Output 3 quick wins and 1 larger automation opportunity
- State assumptions, protect sensitive information, and make no actual changes
