Daily Experiment Planner agent: one prompt to save scientists hours of lab prep
nlarusstone · x · 2026-10-23
Day 4 of the author's "an agent a day" series introduces a Daily Experiment Planner agent for research labs, targeting small frictions like not knowing if a reagent is in stock or whether the sequencing core finished your samples.
Sample prompt: run the agent every weekday morning, review yesterday's work and today's calendar to plan the day, prepare notebook entries, and flag things like low reagents or equipment that needs reserving.
