Use Cowork as a personal executive assistant preview
What They Did
One commenter set Claude Cowork to run on a schedule during the workday, with access to Google Drive, Confluence, Slack, Krisp.ai transcripts, five connected apps, two custom MCPs, and two custom skills. Each morning it reviewed that day’s meetings and assembled an agenda from those sources; later it pulled unresolved Slack items and meeting follow-ups into reminders with due dates, while the user mainly ensured the laptop was on at the scheduled times.
How It Went
They said it was invaluable and that this setup worked daily without fail for them, unlike a similar Claude Project setup another commenter said was inconsistent. The practical limitation they noted was that scheduled runs depended on their computer being on.
Worth Knowing
Their tasks were scheduled at 8:30am, 1pm, and 5pm, so copying this setup meant planning around a machine that stayed powered on then.
Try it yourself with Claude Cowork

Act as my executive assistant. Go through my [inbox, calendar, and files in folder] and give me a plan for [this week], including meetings to prepare for, emails needing replies, and tasks due. Draft replies and a prep note for [important meeting]. Stop when I have a prioritized to-do list and drafts, and don't send, accept, or delete anything without showing me first.
