Every action item from today's meetings in one list, with the ones you haven't touched flagged before tomorrow buries them.
Action items die quietly. They get assigned at 2pm, buried under three more meetings by 4, and by tomorrow's standup you're reconstructing the day from memory and hoping nothing important fell through.
Managers and project managers feel this worst, because the items you drop are usually other people's blockers.
This routine runs every evening at 6pm. It goes through the meetings you had today, pulls out every action item that came up, and checks which ones show no sign of progress.
The output is a short end-of-day list: what got done, what's still open, and what's due soon. Close the loop tonight or hand it to tomorrow on purpose, not by accident.

It compares the action items from your meetings against your visible work -- tasks checked off, emails sent, documents updated. Anything with no trace gets flagged as open.
This routine reports in Littlebird. If you want items pushed into a task manager instead, the Action Item Sync routine sends them to Todoist automatically.
It works on the free Basic plan. If you run it alongside several other routines, Plus costs $17 per month on annual billing or $20 month to month, with 14 days free to try.
No. It waits quietly until you open it. Auto-pause is built in, so vacations and off days stay off.
