Automation Scout FAQ
Prompt template
Set up a new bot for me that finds its own job. Walk me through connecting Slack, Notion, GitHub and Linear, then let it inspect my history across all four: find the repetitive work I do without noticing, and propose two automations — what triggers, what runs, what I'd save — without me describing anything first. Ask me only what it can't infer, write both proposals up for my review, then save the one I pick as its first real task.
