Reschedule Conflicts on My Calendar
When your week has scheduling conflicts, let Cowork identify them and propose resolutions — then act after your approval.
The prompt
Scan my calendar for the next 7 days. Find every scheduling conflict — two or more events overlapping at the same time. For each conflict: - List the two events, their times, and attendees - Identify which event I organised vs which I was invited to - Propose a resolution: which one to reschedule and suggest 2 alternative slots based on my calendar availability Show me all conflicts and your proposed resolutions before taking any action. After I confirm each resolution, reschedule the relevant event and send updated calendar notifications to the affected attendees. Handle one conflict at a time — do not reschedule anything until I approve that specific change.
