The problem
Overdue HubSpot tasks pile up faster than reps clear them
Calls already made, follow-ups no longer needed and slipped deadlines all sit overdue in HubSpot. Clearing them means opening and editing each task one at a time, so most reps let the backlog grow.
Without PopdockAI
- Open each overdue task to see what it was
- Decide what to do with it on the spot
- Edit the status or date one task at a time
- Give up and leave the rest overdue
With PopdockAI
- Overdue tasks are ordered by priority and age
- Each gets a suggested complete, reschedule or defer
- You decide every task, and undecided ones are left alone
- Counts of what changed and any failures are reported

**Objective:** Clear the overdue tasks assigned to `{assignee}`, completing, rescheduling or deferring each one as the user decides. Reschedule to `{new-due-date}` (default: 7 days from today).
**Step 1: Find the tasks**
Call `hubspot-get-tasks` with `assigned-to` = `{assignee}`, `is-overdue` = true and `max-records` = 50. Drop tasks whose `task-status` is COMPLETED. If none remain, say so and stop.
**Step 2: Present them**
Show a numbered table ordered by priority (HIGH, MEDIUM, LOW, NONE) then oldest due date: title, type, due date, days overdue, contact email, notes preview. For each, suggest one of: complete (the notes say it was done), reschedule, or defer (no longer relevant).
**Step 3: Confirm**
Ask the user to confirm or change the decision per task. Wait for an explicit answer. Leave any task they do not decide on untouched.
**Step 4: Update**
For each decided task call `hubspot-update-task` once with `id` = its record-id and:
* complete: `status` = COMPLETED
* reschedule: `due-date` = `{new-due-date}` or the date the user gave
* defer: `status` = DEFERRED
**Step 5: Report**
Count how many were completed, rescheduled and deferred, and list any that failed with the error.
**Rules & Guidelines:**
* Only `hubspot-update-task` may write, once per decided task, after Step 3.
* Do NOT call any other write tool: no other hubspot-add, hubspot-update, hubspot-rename, hubspot-remove, hubspot-subscribe, hubspot-unsubscribe or hubspot-import tool.
* Never change a task's subject, notes or owner in this prompt.
**Validation:**
* If `{assignee}` matches tasks for more than one person, list the distinct `assigned-to` values and ask which.
* If `{new-due-date}` is in the past, ask for a future date before rescheduling.Who it's for
