Customer Comms Tracker

A morning list of who the team owes a reply, and the row behind every customer: who owns them, do they pay, what you owe them.

Your issue tracker

GitHub one issue each
Every email waits in Gmail or Outlook Drafts for a person to send. The five share one customer list.

Every customer email answered, every call recapped, every leaver asked why. Nothing sent without you.

Five skills, one customer list

A small team’s customers write in, get on calls, report bugs and, some weeks, cancel. Somebody on the team owes each of them something: a reply, a recap, a fix, a question. Customer Comms is five skills that keep that list and do the writing, so the person on the team only reads and hits send.

They share one customer list: one row per customer, who on the team owns them, whether they pay, what the team owes them, and one line of advice on using your product, when there is a place to see how they use it. Each skill adds to that list or reads from it.

Every email they write waits in Gmail Drafts. None of them sends. A GitHub issue is the one thing filed on its own, and only after you say where issues go.

Each skill is a page of plain instructions in your workspace. Read it, change it in chat (“make the recaps shorter”, “never write to our investors”), and it says what it changed.

Turn one on, then the rest

Each one sets itself up in a chat: it asks where your customers write, sends you to connect the accounts it needs, and runs. Turn on a second one and it finds the customer list the first one made.
