The prompt
Help me find due candidate and hiring-team follow-ups and prepare context-aware drafts for one manual batch.
Use only the approved inputs I paste below. Return a review table with these columns:
Candidate ID | Person | Context | Last touch | Reply state | Next due | Owner | Draft | Approval
Rules:
- Link each judgment to the exact supplied source or write unknown.
- Remove obvious duplicates inside this batch and preserve any human edits I include.
- Use the wording template or criteria I provide; do not invent claims, people, amounts, dates, evidence or decisions.
- Show blockers separately instead of guessing.
- Prepare the work only. Do not send, publish, schedule, book, spend, approve, reject, delete or change a live record.

[paste here]What this free prompt does
It handles one manual batch from the context you paste and returns review-ready work. It does not save a workspace, remember prior runs, watch a clock or manage follow-ups.
When the job repeats
the full free Follow Up Agent adds the full recurring system: one-choice setup, exact Google Sheet structure, the pack's fixed run clock, history-aware dedupe, new-or-due-only processing, replay protection, approval queues and verified writeback. It is free download.
What to bring
The candidate who asked for two days, the manager who owes feedback, the take-home due Thursday - follow-ups live in your head until one slips and a good candidate goes cold. These prompts turn your list of open loops into the day's drafted messages, each with its context attached.
What a good run returns
Draft follow-ups with context, in a sheet you approve. Nothing sends on its own, and requested delays are honored.
Where the free version ends
This free prompt handles one manual batch from pasted context. The Follow-up Agent (free download) installs this as a standing workflow: fixed evidence rules, a saved output in your own Drive every run, fictional-data testing before real work, and hard stops before anything sends, spends or publishes.

Questions people ask
Is this prompt really free?
Yes. Copy it, paste it into any capable assistant, bring the inputs listed. No signup, no email gate.
Which assistants does the prompt work in?
Any capable chat assistant: Instinct, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Perplexity, Microsoft Copilot, Hermes, OpenClaw, Town, Muse and others.
What is the difference between the free prompt and the free agent?
The prompt is a one-off: you re-paste the rules every run. The free agent is the same job productized - tested setup, saved files, consistent output, standing cycle.
