Tasks and Routines

Tasks and Routines

Tasks are one-off pieces of work. Routines are tasks that run on a schedule.

Good task examples:

  • Launch ten separate competitor brief tasks and synthesize the results.
  • Draft a go-to-market launch room with positioning, channels, objections, and a checklist.
  • Produce six product audit reports: onboarding, pricing, docs, activation, churn, and trust.
  • Draft a week of LinkedIn posts for human review.

Good routine examples:

  • Scan product feedback every morning.
  • Prepare a weekly metrics brief.
  • Summarize new research every Friday.
  • Turn new support themes into Discord-ready release notes.

The important Cabinet pattern is that outputs should become files in the knowledge base.
