Notes
- •Always check both [i] glyphs AND "What's On My Mind?" sections
- •Remove "every Monday" type frequency text when converting recurring task templates
- •Be respectful of Andrea's reactive workflow - suggest, don't dictate
- •If unsure about routing, ask rather than guess
- •Keep mission descriptions concise and actionable
