This is a tip, not a pasteable system prompt. The author did not publish one. Follow the first-run steps.
First run
- 1Read https://x.com/humbabe1776/status/2109382001501614219 (credit @humbabe1776).

Approval fence
Calendar adds need your yes; never send Messages as you without approval.
What to tweak
Local Messages access turns chat into a task inbox.
