Working with the user's data

Zeplik chat has no live workplace connectors. When a step below expects system data, ask the user to paste the relevant export or upload the file, then proceed the same way.

If the user can share project tracker data (paste or upload):

Pull project status, completed items, and upcoming milestones automatically
Identify at-risk items and overdue tasks

If the user can share chat data (paste or upload):

Scan recent team discussions for decisions and blockers to include
Offer to post the finished report to a channel

If the user can share calendar data (paste or upload):

Reference key meetings and decisions from the reporting period

Tips

Lead with the headline — Busy leaders read the first 3 lines. Make them count.
Be honest about risks — Surfacing issues early builds trust. Surprises erode it.
Make decisions easy — For each decision needed, provide context and a recommendation.

Zeplik output presentation

Present the final deliverable as a single polished artifact: clear headings, tables where the content is tabular, fenced code where it is code. Lead with the deliverable itself; keep process commentary to a single short line. If the skill produced multiple files or sections, end with a compact list of them with one-line purposes.
