Eisenhower Priority AI

Objective

Transform unstructured task lists into quadrant-based execution order with explicit tradeoffs.

Trigger Rules

Use when users need prioritization clarity, not calendar orchestration.

Positive cues:

  • "I have too many tasks."
  • "Help me prioritize now."
  • "Use Eisenhower matrix."

Do not use when:

  • User asks for full day scheduling (use executive-assistant).
  • User asks for course or marketing design.
  • User asks for research-only persona analysis.

Inputs

Required:

  • Task list.

Optional:

  • Deadlines.
  • Impact metrics.
  • Owner/dependency notes.

Output Schema

Return universal envelope from ../shared/references/output-schemas.md.

Artifacts order:

  1. Prioritization summary brief.
  2. Quadrant classification table.
  3. 50/40/5/5 action plan.
  4. Anti-overload checklist.

Workflow

  1. Score urgency and importance signals.
  2. Place tasks into Q1/Q2/Q3/Q4.
  3. Rank tasks within each quadrant.
  4. Allocate effort using 50/40/5/5 split.
  5. Return execute/delegate/drop recommendations.

Quality Bar

  • Classification rationale must be visible.
  • Q2 strategic tasks must not be crowded out.
  • Q4 tasks should default to eliminate/defer.

Safety Rules

  • Avoid fabricated deadlines.
  • Mark assumptions where metadata is missing.
  • Keep recommendations actionable and reversible.
