FAQPage Schema
How do I prioritize a brain dump of tasks using the Eisenhower matrix?

To prioritize a brain dump, provide your list of items to the Skill. It applies Eisenhower matrix logic to triage tasks into DO, SCHEDULE, DELEGATE, and ELIMINATE quadrants, converting ideas into actionable work.

How does task triage handle urgent deadlines versus long-term goals?

Task triage categorizes urgent deadlines into the DO quadrant for immediate action, while placing long-term goals into the SCHEDULE quadrant to plan future execution, ensuring both priorities are managed correctly.

Can I delegate tasks to a specific agent role during workflow triage?

Yes, you can delegate tasks. The triage workflow enforces a rule requiring an agent role assignment for any task categorized into the DELEGATE quadrant to ensure proper handoff.

What is the maximum number of tasks I can schedule at one time?

The triage workflow enforces a SCHEDULE limit of 10 items. This constraint prevents overloading your future calendar and maintains focus on high-priority scheduled work.

What is the best way to review what to work on next for ongoing projects?

The best way to decide what to work on next is using the daily DO review. This triage workflow rule surfaces immediate priorities from ongoing projects for quick execution.

Are there any limitations when eliminating tasks from a project backlog?

Eliminating tasks removes them from active workflow entirely. You should use the ELIMINATE quadrant for items in your project backlog that lack urgency or long-term value to prevent wasted effort.
