One chat, rerun every day
Most people have a good conversation with their AI once, get a useful answer, and then start from zero the next day. This session taught attendees to notice the conversations worth keeping — and turn them into structured, reusable prompts. The twist: Sebastian delivered the whole workshop as a prompt, running it through each attendee's chat. They connected Gmail and Calendar, had a real productivity conversation, then productised it into a five-layer reusable prompt (persona, goal, context, format, guardrails) they could run every morning. The back half of the session previewed what's past the prompt — skills, Claude for Chrome, Claude for Excel — and why those replace old automation stacks like N8N.
