A monthly audit of every recurring meeting you own, with an honest verdict: keep, shorten, or make async.
Recurring meetings never die natural deaths. They get created for a project that shipped months ago, a crisis that passed, a sync that stopped syncing -- and they keep eating 30 minutes a week because canceling feels like a decision nobody has time to make.
Multiply by every series you own and the waste is hours a month, hiding in plain sight.
This routine runs once a month. It lists every recurring meeting on your calendar, looks at how each one is actually going -- attendance, agenda substance, outcomes -- and flags the candidates: meetings that could be shortened, eliminated, or replaced with an async update.
You get the list with a recommendation for each. The cancel button is still yours, but the analysis is done.
Copy this prompt into a new Littlebird routine. Edit the days and times to fit your schedule.

Skills are a good demo. You open a chat, paste in yesterday's context, and get a pretty solid answer -- once.
Tomorrow you do the whole thing again: same paste, same wait. The skill does not know your meetings, your threads, or what changed since Monday.
This routine knows all of that before it runs. It fires on schedule and hands you the result where you already work.
From what actually happens in it: whether decisions get made, whether the same updates repeat, whether half the invitees talk. Patterns, not vibes.
No. It recommends; you decide. Declining other people's meetings stays your social problem.
It runs on Basic for free. Plus, at $17 per month billed annually or $20 monthly with a 14-day trial, is for people running a fuller routine stack.
Monthly is the default and suits most teams. Quarterly works if your calendar is stable.
