Founder Wellbeing
Count the decisions you make in a day and most of them do not deserve you. Approve the expense. Answer the scheduling question. Decide which of the four fires to look at first. Each one costs thirty seconds and a small amount of attention, and by four in the afternoon the thing you actually needed to think about gets whatever is left. That is not a discipline problem. It is arithmetic — a finite number of decisions, spent on the cheapest ones first because they arrive first.
Skynet reduces the count. The routine decisions get handled inside boundaries you set. The ones that need you arrive with the context already gathered and the options laid out, so you spend the decision itself rather than the twenty minutes of assembly in front of it.
How it works
Name what should not reach you
Expense approvals under a threshold. Scheduling. Routine status questions. Draw the line once and Skynet holds it, instead of you re-deciding the same category forty times.
Batch the rest
Things that need you but not immediately get collected and delivered together, at a time you pick. An interruption at 11am and a line in a 5pm list cost very different amounts of attention.
Arrive prepared, not raw
When a real decision reaches you, the agent has already pulled the relevant numbers, history, and options. You are deciding, not gathering.
Protect the hours that need you
Your deep-work blocks are treated as commitments. Non-urgent items route around them and wait, so the work only you can do gets a whole stretch instead of the gaps.
Build it from a prompt
Tell it which decisions to stop bringing you.
The result is fewer things on your desk and better preparation for the ones that stay. You still make every decision that matters — you just make them with attention you did not spend on approving a software subscription at nine in the morning.
