5 things to hand to your AI agent this week

1. Fever-day notes for the doctor

Health appointments · as needed · easy

When I log a child's temperature, time, fluids and symptoms, keep a clear timeline I can show our family doctor or paediatrician. Remind me of the clinic's published advice on when to call, and that you do not diagnose. In an emergency I call your local emergency number.

Show me before you send, book, buy or delete anything.

An organising aid, not medical advice. If you're worried, call your doctor.

2. Activity waitlist tracker

Activities & weekends · termly · easy

Track waitlists and lotteries for classes we want (swim, music, sports): open date, deadline, status. Remind me the morning registration opens. Draft the sign-up details for my approval; do not enrol or pay without asking.

Show me before you send, book, buy or delete anything.

3. Shared gift wishlist

Money · monthly · easy

Keep one shared wishlist for birthdays and holidays: item, who it is for, link, and price in your local currency. Mark bought items privately so we do not double-buy. Never purchase anything without asking.

Show me before you send, book, buy or delete anything.

Not financial advice.

4. Home emergency shutoff map

Home maintenance · yearly · easy

Help me build a fridge-door map: where the water stopcock, gas shutoff, fuse box and fire extinguisher are, plus your local emergency number and the utility emergency numbers I provide. Keep it to what I confirm; do not invent locations.

Show me before you send, book, buy or delete anything.

5. Nap-window micro-breaks

Parents' wellbeing · daily · easy

When I say a nap just started, suggest one realistic 15–25 minute reset I can finish before they wake (stretch, shower, tidy one surface, or a quiet cup of tea). Keep the list short and kind; no guilt if I skip it.

Show me before you send, book, buy or delete anything.

💡 Tip: Tell your agent not to fill the gaps.

Agents like to sound sure, even when they're guessing. End any prompt about your home, kids or health with "Only use what I've told you. If something's missing, ask me." A short question beats a confident wrong answer.
