1. Read what actually moved
Artie checks the connected project pages, trackers and channels for the week: completed work, changed dates, new blockers and decisions made. Artie works from the record, not from whoever posted most.
Write weekly status updates
Artie reads what moved this week in your connected tools and drafts the status update: what shipped, what slipped, what is blocked and who needs to decide.

Your brief
Write the Friday update for the platform team from our Notion project pages and this channel. Keep it short and call out anything that slipped.
ArtieAPP
I’ll read what changed this week, check each slip with its owner and draft the update for your review.
See example output ↓How Artie handles it.
Starts: Weekly, at the time you choose, ahead of when the update usually goes out.
2. Check before reporting
Each slipped item and blocker is matched to its owner and latest update. Where the record is unclear, Artie asks the owner a short question instead of guessing why something moved.
3. Draft, review and post
You get a draft in your format: shipped, in progress, slipped, blocked and decisions needed, each with a link. Artie posts it to the channel or page you choose once you approve, or directly if you have allowed that.
An update built from the record.
Use this for a recurring team update. Chasing individual commitments between updates is the follow-through workflow.

- Slipped
- Admin-console SSO moves from this Friday to next Wednesday. The owner’s update says the identity provider’s test tenant was unavailable for two days.
- Decision needed
- Whether to hold the data-retention change until legal review finishes, or ship it behind a setting. The owner and both options are linked.

Questions about this workflow
Will Artie make up reasons for delays?
No. Reasons come from the record or the owner’s answer. If neither exists, the update says the reason is unconfirmed.
Can Artie follow our existing format?
Yes. Share a past update or template and Artie matches its sections and length.
Does Artie post automatically?
Only if you allow it. Otherwise you review and approve the draft first.
