Best Prompts for OpenWorker

30+ ready-to-use prompt templates organized by workflow. Copy, paste, and let OpenWorker handle the rest.

Email Prompts for OpenWorker

These OpenWorker prompts work with Gmail and Outlook integrations to automate inbox management, drafting, and email organization.

"Summarize all unread emails from today. Group them by urgency: needs reply now, can wait, and informational only."

Gives you a prioritized inbox overview without reading every message. OpenWorker pulls subject lines, senders, and key sentences to build the summary.

"Draft a polite follow-up email to [name] about the proposal I sent last Tuesday. Reference the key points from the original email."

OpenWorker reads your sent folder, finds the original proposal email, extracts the main points, and composes a natural follow-up that maintains context.

"Find all emails from the last 7 days that contain invoices or payment requests. Create a list with sender, amount, and due date."

Automates the tedious task of scanning email for financial items. OpenWorker identifies monetary amounts and dates from email content and attachments.

"Unsubscribe me from all marketing newsletters I received this week. Draft a list of what you will unsubscribe from and wait for my approval."

The approval step is critical here. OpenWorker identifies newsletter patterns and shows you the list before taking action, preventing accidental unsubscribes from important lists.

"Write a professional out-of-office reply for next Monday through Friday. Mention that [colleague name] is handling urgent requests."

A simple but frequent task. OpenWorker composes a clean OOO message and can set it up through your Gmail or Outlook integration directly.

Calendar Prompts for OpenWorker

Optimize your schedule with these OpenWorker prompts. Requires Google Calendar or Outlook Calendar integration.

"Show me my schedule for tomorrow. For each meeting, tell me who organized it, the agenda, and what I should prepare."

OpenWorker cross-references calendar events with email threads about those meetings to pull preparation context that the calendar entry alone does not contain.

"Find all meetings this week where I'm optional. Draft polite decline messages for any that conflict with my focus blocks."

Reclaims time by identifying optional meetings that overlap with deep work. OpenWorker reads attendee status and generates individual decline messages.

"Block two 90-minute focus windows this week on days that currently have fewer than 3 meetings. Name them 'Deep Work' and set them as busy."

Proactive calendar optimization. OpenWorker analyzes your week's meeting density and places focus blocks where they will survive best.

"Compare my calendar next week with [colleague name]'s calendar and find three 30-minute slots where we are both free."

Eliminates the back-and-forth of scheduling. OpenWorker reads both calendars (if the colleague has shared access) and suggests specific times.

Slack Prompts for OpenWorker

Tame your Slack notifications with these OpenWorker prompts. From incident summaries to automated standup updates.

"Read the last 20 messages in #incidents and summarize what happened, who is involved, and what the current status is."

Instant situational awareness. OpenWorker scans the thread, identifies key updates, and produces a structured incident summary you can share with stakeholders.

"Check my unread Slack DMs and mentions from today. For each one, tell me what they want and suggest a one-line response."

Batch-processes Slack communication. OpenWorker reads the context of each message and proposes responses that match your communication style.

"Monitor #engineering for any messages mentioning deployment or release in the next 2 hours. Alert me if something comes up."

Uses OpenWorker's trigger capability to watch a channel passively. Ideal for release days when you need to stay informed without refreshing Slack constantly.

"Post a standup update to #team-daily summarizing what I did yesterday based on my calendar events, GitHub commits, and completed Jira tickets."

Cross-integration prompt that pulls data from three sources to generate a real standup update. Saves 10 minutes of manual standup composition every morning.

Report Generation Prompts for OpenWorker

Cross-integration prompts that pull data from multiple tools to generate comprehensive reports in OpenWorker.

"Generate a weekly project report covering: merged PRs from GitHub, completed issues from Linear, and key Slack discussions from #product."

The ultimate cross-integration OpenWorker prompt. It aggregates three data sources into a single report that would take 30+ minutes to compile manually.

"Create a summary of all customer feedback received this week from email and Slack. Categorize by theme: feature requests, bug reports, and praise."

Turns scattered feedback into actionable categories. OpenWorker reads both email and Slack conversations to find customer-related messages and classify them.

"Pull the key metrics from this month's sales dashboard spreadsheet on Google Drive and format them into an executive summary with bullet points."

OpenWorker accesses Google Drive, reads the spreadsheet data, identifies the most important trends, and formats them for executive consumption.

"Compare this week's GitHub activity (commits, PRs, reviews) with last week. Highlight any unusual changes in team velocity."

Trend analysis across two time periods. OpenWorker queries GitHub's API twice and performs the comparison automatically, flagging anomalies.

CRM Prompts for OpenWorker

Automate customer relationship workflows with these OpenWorker prompts. Requires HubSpot or Attio integration.

"Prepare a one-page customer brief for [company name] including their account history, recent support tickets, usage trends, and any open deals in HubSpot."

The classic OpenWorker CRM prompt. It compiles data from multiple HubSpot objects into a document you can review before a meeting.

"Find all deals in HubSpot that have been in the 'Negotiation' stage for more than 14 days. List them with owner, value, and last activity date."

Pipeline hygiene automation. OpenWorker identifies stale deals that need attention and presents them sorted by deal value.

"After my meeting with [company name] today, update their HubSpot contact record with the key discussion points from my calendar notes."

Post-meeting CRM hygiene. OpenWorker reads your calendar event notes and updates the HubSpot record so the next person interacting with that account has context.

Advanced Automation Prompts for OpenWorker

These power-user prompts combine triggers, multiple integrations, and chained outputs. They represent the full potential of OpenWorker automation.

"Every morning at 8 AM, check my unread emails, today's calendar, and overnight Slack mentions. Compile a morning briefing and post it to #my-briefing."

The ultimate OpenWorker automation. Set this as a scheduled trigger and start every workday with a personalized briefing that covers all your communication channels.

"When someone mentions me in #support, check the customer's account in HubSpot, find relevant documentation in Notion, and draft a response for my review."

Multi-step trigger workflow. OpenWorker chains three integrations — Slack detection, HubSpot lookup, and Notion search — to produce a context-rich draft response.

"Review the attached document and create a Notion page with a structured summary. Then draft an email to the team with the key takeaways and a link to the Notion page."

Demonstrates OpenWorker's ability to chain outputs. The Notion page becomes an input for the email, creating a complete workflow from a single request.

"Every Friday at 4 PM, compile a weekly digest from GitHub PRs, Linear completed issues, and Slack highlights from #wins. Save it as a Google Doc and share the link in #team-updates."

Fully automated weekly reporting. Once configured as a trigger, this OpenWorker prompt runs every Friday without any manual intervention.

OpenWorker Prompts FAQ

What makes a good prompt for OpenWorker?
The best OpenWorker prompts describe the desired outcome, not the steps to get there. Instead of saying 'open my email, find messages from John, read them,' say 'summarize all emails from John this week.' OpenWorker is designed to plan and execute the steps itself. Include the scope (time range, channels, people) and the output format (summary, list, document) for best results.
Can I save and reuse prompts in OpenWorker?
Yes. OpenWorker maintains a history of your prompts and you can favorite frequently used ones for quick access. For recurring tasks, set up a trigger with the prompt so OpenWorker runs it automatically without you needing to type it each time.
How long should an OpenWorker prompt be?
Effective OpenWorker prompts are typically 1-3 sentences. Be specific about what you want but do not over-specify the steps. A prompt like 'Prepare a customer brief for Acme Corp with account history and open tickets' is ideal. Adding unnecessary details about which tabs to click or which APIs to call can actually slow the agent down.
Do these prompts work with all AI models in OpenWorker?
Most prompts work across all supported models, but complex multi-integration prompts perform best with top-tier models like GPT-5.6 Sol or Claude Fable. These models have stronger tool-calling abilities and handle multi-step workflows more reliably. For simple single-integration prompts, mid-tier models like GPT-5.6 Sol Mini work well.
Can I combine multiple prompts into one OpenWorker request?
Yes, and it often produces better results than separate requests. OpenWorker maintains context within a single conversation, so saying 'Summarize my inbox and then draft replies for urgent messages' is more efficient than two separate prompts because the agent already has your email data loaded.
What if an OpenWorker prompt fails or produces wrong output?
Refine the prompt by adding more context or constraints. If OpenWorker summarizes the wrong time period, specify 'from Monday to Friday this week.' If the output format is wrong, specify 'in a bullet-point list' or 'as a table.' The agent learns from clarifications within the same conversation.
Can I use natural language in any language with OpenWorker prompts?
OpenWorker supports prompts in any language that the underlying AI model supports. GPT, Claude, and Gemini all handle English, Spanish, French, German, Chinese, Japanese, and many other languages. The quality of multilingual output depends on the model you choose.
Are there prompts that should not be used with OpenWorker?
Avoid prompts that ask OpenWorker to perform irreversible bulk actions without review, like 'delete all emails from last month' or 'close all open Jira tickets.' Always include a review step for destructive operations. OpenWorker's permission system will catch most risky actions, but well-crafted prompts are the first line of defense.
