4 Loops That Have Nothing to Do With Code

Admin that runs itself — calendar, CRM, LinkedIn, even your watch

The Idea

Someone left a fair comment on my last loops video: every example I gave was a coding one. They've got a point. So here are four loops with nothing to do with code — the admin that quietly runs my week.

The first three you can set up yourself with the prompts below. The fourth's the fun one — and it's bespoke.

The Four

The Evening Wrap-Up

Runs every evening. Pulls in the day's meeting transcripts from my calendar, updates my CRM with what was said, and pulls out the key themes — so I can query the whole history of my conversations dead easily.

First, connect it · Connect your Google Calendar (and email) to Claude Cowork, so it can reach your meetings and transcripts.

Set up loop 1

I'd like to set up an evening "wrap-up" loop in Claude, and I want your help getting it right. The goal: every evening, pull in the day's meeting transcripts from my calendar, update my CRM with what was discussed, and pull out the key themes — so I can easily search the whole history of my conversations later. (I've connected my Google Calendar and email to Claude Cowork, so you can reach my meetings and transcripts.) Help me set it up properly first: - Confirm you can see my meetings/transcripts, and tell me where my CRM lives so you can update it. - Agree what to capture per meeting — who was there, what was discussed, decisions, and follow-ups — and how to tag the themes so they're searchable later. - Set it to run each evening. Walk me through the plan. Once I'm happy, set it running.

The LinkedIn Chase

Every evening it goes through my LinkedIn outreach — who's replied, who's gone quiet, who I need to chase — and updates my CRM.

First, connect it · Set up Claude in Chrome, so it can see and work through your LinkedIn for you.

Set up loop 2

I'd like to set up a LinkedIn outreach loop in Claude, and I want your help setting it up. The goal: every evening, go through my LinkedIn outreach — work out who's replied, who's gone quiet, and who I need to chase — and update my CRM accordingly. (I've set up Claude in Chrome, so you can see and work through my LinkedIn.) Help me set it up: - Confirm you can reach my LinkedIn messages in the browser, and tell me where my CRM is. - Agree the rules: what counts as "replied", "gone quiet", and "needs chasing" — and how long someone sits quiet before they become a chase. - Each evening: go through the threads, sort them into those buckets, and update the CRM. Show me the plan first, then run it.

The Pre-Meeting Brief

Fires before every meeting. Drops a brief into my Claude chat — who I'm meeting and what we last talked about. No more "hang on, did we speak about this last time?"

First, connect it · Connect your calendar (and email) to Claude Cowork, so it can see what's coming up and your history with each person.

Set up loop 3

I'd like to set up a "pre-meeting brief" loop in Claude, and I'd like your help. The goal: before every meeting, drop a short brief into my chat — who I'm meeting and what we last talked about — so I'm never caught out. (I've connected my calendar and email to Claude Cowork, so you can see what's coming up and our history.) Help me set it up: - Confirm you can see my upcoming meetings and the past context for each person (emails, previous notes). - Agree what the brief should contain: who they are, our last conversation, and any open threads or follow-ups. - Set it to fire shortly before each meeting. Walk me through the plan, then set it live.

The Watch Loop

The fun one. I've connected my Coros watch through an MCP, so every time I plug it into my computer it pulls in my sleep, my training and my recovery — and I can just ask how I'm doing.

This one's bespoke

There's no one-line prompt for this — it runs through a custom MCP connection to the watch, which takes a proper setup. If you want the full walkthrough on wiring up the Coros MCP, drop me a message and I'll put together a dedicated video on it.

Not a line of code in sight

That's the whole point. Loops aren't an engineering thing — they're for anything repetitive with a clear job to do. If your admin is quietly running your life, it's exactly this kind of thing you want to hand off.
