The Friday 5pm weekly review with Claude.
End the week with a one-paragraph summary of what you shipped — written automatically, edited in 5 minutes.
Overview
Friday at 5pm, most professionals' brains are out. A pre-built weekly review prompt that pulls from your real activity is the single best way to end the week with a coherent self-narrative.
The prompt
"Pull from my Gmail (sent + received), Calendar (events I attended), and Drive (files I created or edited) over the past 7 days. Give me: top 3 things I shipped or progressed; top 3 unresolved threads I should close next week; one thing that took more time than it should have, and why; a 2-sentence personal note I could send to my manager or accountability buddy."
Why it works
It surfaces what you actually did, not what you remember doing. People consistently underestimate their week — the review fights that bias with data.
It identifies the unresolved threads while you still have context, instead of next Monday when you've forgotten.
Schedule it once you trust it
After 3 weeks of running it manually, schedule it to fire automatically at 4:45pm Friday. You'll get the output in your inbox; spend 5 minutes editing; send.
