Bring in a small slice of real work
Paste rough notes, attach a screenshot, or preview a CSV export from another task manager. Start with this week. You do not need to move everything or organise the input first.
Aiken turns your notes into tasks and adds them to your workspace, with a summary of the changes.
Check the result
Check the added tasks and their details. Use Undo on the change summary to reverse additions you do not want.
The Secretary can help with the organising, but it never gets the final say.
Ask for a next move
Choose What can I do now? The Secretary recommends a task, gives a task-specific reason, and names the important trade-off.
Push back or act
Use Help me start to turn the recommendation into a concrete first step. If it does not fit, choose Not now or Make it smaller.
Teach a reusable rule
When the exchange reveals something durable about how you work, choose Learn from this. One reusable guideline is saved under Learnings in Memory for relevant future advice.
The Secretary does not silently learn from every chat. You decide which correction should last.
