Bucket 1 — Three Scheduled Prompts That Work Out of the Box

Prompts 1-3. Three prompts you wire to /schedule today — Daily Briefing, Weekly Review, and the Friday Wrap. No external integrations, just the agent thinking on its own time horizon.

Most agent failures aren't model failures. They're framing failures.

People install an agent and ask it the same things they'd ask a chat tab — "help me brainstorm", "summarize this", "explain X". Those are tasks Claude does in five seconds in a browser tab. They don't justify the friction of running an agent.

An agent earns its keep when it does what a chat tab can't:

Run on a schedule — /schedule "Every Friday at 4pm, do X". The agent fires the prompt for you, you wake up to the answer.
Remember across sessions — /remember voice-profile "..." then later /recall voice and the agent surfaces it. The agent's memory compounds.
Synthesize what you paste in — you paste raw stuff (calendar, emails, pipeline data), the agent gives you back a clean compressed answer in your voice.

Honest framing: things like "watch my inbox" or "monitor my CRM" require you to wire up integrations and give the agent API tokens — that's the next layer up. The Drop-in Prompts in this kit work on Day 1 of a MAKO (or any Claude-Code-style) deployment with zero extra plumbing. They use /schedule, /remember, and the agent's built-in synthesis ability.

Three modules ahead, each with a short walk-through video and the exact prompt to copy. Pick the one that fits your week and run it tonight.
