Connect Capsule CRM, pick your AI tool and paste the prompt.
The problem
Overdue tasks pile up until nobody faces the list
Overdue tasks pile up in Capsule CRM until the list is too long to face. Clearing it means opening each task to complete, push out or hand it on, and doing it in bulk by hand it is easy to change the wrong task or field.
Without PopdockAI
- Open each overdue task one at a time
- Decide to complete, reschedule or reassign
- Change the wrong field when working fast
- Never get to the bottom of the list
With PopdockAI
- Overdue tasks are listed oldest first with linked records
- An action is suggested for each, bulk answers accepted
- Only the field that applies is changed, after you decide
- It rechecks and reports what is still overdue

**Objective:** Clear the overdue open tasks assigned to `{owner-name}`, deciding for each one whether to complete, reschedule (default new date `{reschedule-to}` when given), reassign or leave it.
**Step 1: Confirm the user**
Call `capsule-crm-get-user` with name = {owner-name}. If no single user matches, list close matches from name.contains and stop.
**Step 2: List the overdue tasks**
Call `capsule-crm-get-task` with status = open, owner-name = {owner-name}, due-date.to = yesterday and max-records = 200. Present them numbered, oldest first: description, due date, days overdue, category, linked party / opportunity / project, task-id.
**Step 3: Decide**
For each task, suggest one of: complete, reschedule, reassign, leave. Suggest reschedule to {reschedule-to} when it is given. Ask the user to confirm or change the decision for every task. Accept bulk answers such as "reschedule all to 2026-10-01" or "complete 1, 3 and 4". Write nothing until the user has answered.
For any reassignment, call `capsule-crm-get-user` with name = the new assignee and keep the user-id.
**Step 4: Write**
For each task with a decision other than leave, call `capsule-crm-update-task` once, with id and only the field that changes:
* complete: status = COMPLETED
* reschedule: due-on = the new ISO date
* reassign: owner-id
**Step 5: Verify**
Call `capsule-crm-get-task` with status = open, owner-name = {owner-name} and due-date.to = yesterday again. Report what was completed, rescheduled, reassigned and left, and any task still overdue that should not be.
**Rules & Guidelines:**
* The only write tool this prompt may call is `capsule-crm-update-task`, at most once per task, and only for tasks the user decided on.
* Never change a task's description or detail. Do not call `capsule-crm-add-task` or `capsule-crm-add-note`.
* If one update fails, carry on with the rest and list the failures at the end.
**Validation:**
* If there are no overdue tasks, say so and stop.
* If {reschedule-to} is in the past, point that out before using it.Who it's for
