The four heights
The same task, four distances: today's deadline, the next reviewer, the stuck moment, the pattern.

Execute — do the immediate task
+I need to leave a clear, actionable comment on the cashflow sheet cell D14 for Priya in finance; mention why the number looks off, what evidence to check (transaction IDs 4521–4528 on the ledger), and ask for a target date to correct it — not vague, and sign it with my initials by Friday.

Improve — make it easier to accept
+Before I add a comment on range B2:B12 for the product team, make the issue easy to act on: surface the outlier rows, call out the two source files that disagree, suggest the one reconciliation step to try first, and propose exact wording they can paste into the comment.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment
+I spotted a mismatched total in D14.
The spreadsheet's monthly burn in D14 no longer matches the ledger; Priya in finance and Marco the product lead read the sheet daily. I am worried a wrong import doubled subcontractor costs but I can't see the raw import mapping. Which is the most likely cause and what precise comment should I add to get the data and a fix by Friday?

Become — change the pattern
+We keep leaving vague comments that Priya ignores.
Across multiple projects, comments I leave are ignored and we end up in review meetings. I am the analyst leaving notes for Priya in finance and Marco in product. Where am I failing — wording, evidence, or timing — and what single habit change would make most of my comments acted on within three days?

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.
