💡 Tips for better answers
Add a timeframe (“this week”, “last month”, “since Monday”).
Name a topic (“Project name”, “SOC2”, “team sentiment”).
Specify a person using a Slack mention (e.g., @sharon).
Ask for a format (“bullet list”, “top 5”, “group by category”).
If results are too broad, follow up with a constraint (“only blockers”, “exclude vacations” etc.).
