FAQPage Schema

How do I convert my task list into calendar time blocks?▼

Convert tasks into calendar blocks by categorizing them by duration (deep work, shallow work, quick tasks) and energy requirements, then scheduling them into available calendar slots. This ensures abstract to-dos become committed time on your calendar for actual execution.

How do I protect deep work time while managing my calendar?▼

Block 90–180 minute deep-work periods for high-priority tasks before scheduling other commitments. Deep work protection prioritizes focused time for high-impact work and prevents overcommitment by aligning tasks to your energy and calendar capacity.

Can I use this with Google Calendar and Google Tasks?▼

Yes, this skill integrates with Google Calendar and Google Tasks via MCP-based connections to pull tasks and push scheduled blocks. You pull tasks from Google Tasks and write confirmed time blocks directly to your Google Calendar.

What do I need to do before scheduling my tasks?▼

Complete the Analyzing Schedule skill first, which provides the calendar context and capacity insights required to fit tasks into available time. This prerequisite ensures you understand your existing commitments before scheduling new blocks.

How do I avoid overcommitting when scheduling tasks?▼

Match tasks to your available energy and calendar capacity by aligning task types (deep work, shallow work, quick tasks) with time slots that fit your energy curve. The skill prevents overcommitment by visualizing capacity and blocking realistic time amounts.

What happens if I don't have enough calendar space for a task?▼

The skill checks calendar capacity before scheduling. If insufficient time exists, you must either split the task across multiple blocks, deprioritize lower-impact work, or reschedule the task to a later date when capacity opens.
