Writing scheduled prompts

Since there’s no user input, the prompt must be fully self-contained:

Today is {{date.today}}. Your task:

1. Pull the GitHub issues opened in the last 7 days
   (from {{date.week_start}} to today)
2. Group them by label (bug, feature, question)
3. Calculate how many are still open vs. closed
4. Write a brief weekly summary
5. Post the summary to the #engineering channel on Slack

Timezone handling

Set your schedule’s timezone in the flow settings. All {{date.*}} variables use that timezone when resolved.

Monitoring scheduled runs

View all scheduled run history in Flows → [flow name] → Run History.
