# Daily work review

> Turn a day of screen and meeting activity into a private recap, standup draft, or open-loops list using Screenpipe timeline search and Home scheduled tasks.

A daily review helps when work is spread across terminals, documents, browsers, calls, and messages. Screenpipe reconstructs the day; you decide what it means and what is safe to share.

## Choose the output

| Output | Useful when | Keep private by default |
| - | - | - |
| Personal recap | Remembering progress and context | Detailed app, document, and conversation history |
| Standup draft | Reporting work to a team | Unrelated projects and personal activity |
| open-loops list | Planning tomorrow | Guesses about commitments or owners |
| Weekly review | Spotting patterns across several days | Raw screen or transcript excerpts |

## Step by step

<Steps>
  <Step title="Check the day">
    Open the timeline and confirm the expected work periods were captured. Gaps should appear as gaps in the report.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Run a manual scheduled task">
    Use **Day Recap** on Home. Use **Time Breakdown** when you need an app and project view, or **Missed To-Dos** when you need open loops. Review the result before turning it into a recurring scheduled task.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Ask for observed work and open loops">
    Include completed work, decisions, blockers, unfinished tasks, and likely next actions. Require the result to distinguish direct evidence from inference.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Edit the draft">
    Remove private details, correct project names, and delete activity that is not relevant to the audience.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save or share deliberately">
    Keep a personal recap in a local file, or copy the shorter standup into your team's tool. A generated draft should not post itself on the first run.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Prompt for a private recap

```markdown theme={"system"}
Review today's bounded screenpipe data.

Create:
1. completed work, grouped by project
2. meetings, decisions, and commitments
3. blockers and unresolved questions
4. open loops with the source time range
5. suggested priorities for tomorrow

Rules:
- report capture gaps as gaps
- do not infer completion from merely viewing a task
- mark suggested priorities as suggestions
- avoid quoting private messages unless necessary
```

## Prompt for a standup draft

```markdown theme={"system"}
Turn today's verified recap into a standup under 150 words:
- completed
- next
- blockers

Include only work appropriate for my team channel.
Do not include personal activity, unrelated clients, or uncertain commitments.
Return a draft for review; do not send it.
```

## Schedule it later

After several accurate runs, schedule the scheduled task near the end of your workday. Save the full result locally and keep external posting as a separate, reviewed step.

<Tip>
  If the report needs billable totals, use [consultant time tracking](/consultant-time-tracking). If it should become long-term AI context, use [local agent memory](/agent-memory-workflow).
