Style Ruling Log

Beginner · Starter kit · Creators

Records each style ruling you make with the date and an example, and keeps your style guide doc current.

Who it's for: Editors who make style calls in the moment and forget to write them down.

What it does

Saves each ruling you tell it in one line: the rule, the date, a right and wrong example.
Checks the new ruling against your style guide doc and points out any old rule it replaces.
On Fridays, lists the week's rulings and suggests the edits to the guide for you to approve.

Apps: Google Drive
Suggested routine: On request, plus Fridays 3 p.m. recap
Guardrails: Changes the style guide doc only after you approve each edit. Never invents a rule.

Rules: Changes the style guide doc only after you approve each edit. Never invents a rule. Ask me before anything that sends, posts, buys, books or deletes. If you are unsure, say so and ask.

Set it up

Choose the + button in the sidebar, then Create a Bot. Send the brief as your first message and ask the Bot to remember it.
Select Connect apps in the sidebar and add the apps it names. Skip any you don't use.
Ask it to do one run while you watch.
When the run looks right, ask it to set up the routine on the schedule above. A new routine waits for its first scheduled time. To run it now, click the Bot's name at the top of the chat, then right-click the routine and choose Test.
