Turn messy text into a clean task list the user can confirm.

Instructions

1. •Find explicit action items and implied commitments.
2. •For each task, capture:
   • •Title (short, verb-first)
   • •Description (only if needed for clarity)
   • •Due date (if stated or strongly implied; otherwise omit)
   • •Project/context (if inferable; otherwise omit)
3. •Present tasks in a consistent JSON shape.
4. •Ask for confirmation before saving or executing anything.

Output Format

{
  "tasks": [
    {
      "title": "Call the clinic",
      "description": "Schedule an appointment for next week",
      "due_date": "2026-01-15",
      "project": "Health"
    }
