The moments that lead here

If one of these is your afternoon, you are in the right place.

I have to hand a single archival file to the department by Friday and I’m two folders short of coherent.

Written for the moment this actually comes up.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment

I’ve pulled [documents] into my research folder because the departmental archivist wants one clean file for my [paper] due [deadline=Friday]. I’m afraid I’ll misorder something or leave metadata that betrays anonymized respondents. Diagnose whether I should prioritize a single merged [pdf] now or preserve separate files with a linking table, say what I cannot cross (ethics or provenance), and give the safest step I can finish today so the archivist doesn’t reject the deposit.

Who does this, and with what

The same task is different work inside a different job.

Every task here came from the work, not from a feature list — which is why the prompts name what you want done and never the button that does it. The tool changes; the work does not.
