Generate exec-level status updates using the 5 Levels of Communicating Impact framework.
Ask the user:
How do you want to start?
1. **I have a draft/idea** — paste what you're thinking and I'll help shape it
2. **Let's check my tasks** — I'll look at Tasks.md and we'll identify highlights together
If option 1: Take their draft and skip to Step 3 (Draft & Refine).
If option 2: Continue to Step 2.
Tasks.md for completed items this weekPresent what you found:
From your Tasks.md, here's what got done this week:
- [item 1]
- [item 2]
...
Which of these should be highlights? Anything missing?
Write a first draft:
Apply 5 Levels thinking internally — aim for Level 3-5 statements (metrics, goals, business impact) but don't be formulaic about it. The output should read naturally.
Present the draft:
Here's a draft:
# Top 5 Highlights
- **[Thing 1]** — [impact statement] [@collaborators]
- ...
# Top 5 Priorities
- [next week item]
- ...
---
What would you change? Too long? Missing something? Wrong emphasis?
Refine based on feedback. Keep iterating until the user approves.
Common adjustments:
Provide the final status update ready to paste.
Do:
Don't:
Length: ~3-5 lines per highlight max. If it needs more, it's probably two highlights.
Use this internally to level up statements:
| Level | Focus | Example |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | What you did | "Fixed the bug" |
| 2 | Had impact | "Reduced errors" |
| 3 | Specific (metrics) | "Reduced errors by 40%" |
| 4 | Tied to goal | "Hit Q1 reliability target" |
| 5 | Business impact | "Prevented $2M revenue loss" |
Aim for Level 3+ but write naturally, not like a template.
