Weekly KPI summary with number checks
Every Monday an agent writes the short management summary on supplier and delivery performance. It only sees data through read only tools, a control chart sets the traffic light, code checks every number and a person approves before it goes out.
What it does
- Pulls last week's KPIs through a fixed set of read only tools
- Sets red, yellow or green from control chart rules, not model opinion
- Writes a summary under 180 words in a fixed format
- Checks every number in the draft against the source data
- Routes a failed check to the analyst instead of management
Your approval boundaries
Creates draftsThese actions always wait for your yes:
- Approving the email to management
- Any escalation to a supplier
You decide what happens next.
More about this workflow
This setup is for operators and managers who keep the busywork moving. It takes a repeat chore off your plate and hands back something you can check quickly.
First, it pulls last week's KPIs through a fixed set of read only tools. Next, it sets red, yellow or green from control chart rules, not model opinion. Then it writes a summary under 180 words in a fixed format. After that, it checks every number in the draft against the source data. Finally, it routes a failed check to the analyst instead of management. It works with your database, email and automation platform, each on its own login with limited access.
You get the prep work done and waiting for you. The agent stops and asks for your yes before approving the email to management and any escalation to a supplier, and says plainly if a step cannot be undone.

Steps
Do these in order. Test on old data before it touches live work.
- 1Connect Supabase with its own login, not yours. Grant a role limited to one table.
- 2Connect Gmail with its own login, not yours. Grant read-only plus compose (drafts) scopes.
- 3Connect n8n with its own login, not yours. Grant create workflows, left inactive until reviewed.
- 4Paste the prompt where your harness takes instructions. See the note under the Copy button.
- 5Do a dry run on old or test data first. Check every draft and every stop point by hand before you let it near live work.
- 6Read its log after the first real run. Only widen access once a week of runs looks clean.
Safeguards and trust score
The score describes this example setup’s access, approval boundaries, ability to undo changes, and scope.
Writes drafts and notes inside your tools, nothing leaves on its own.
Waits for a yes on: approving the email to management, any escalation to a supplier.
Leaves drafts you can throw away, with a record of what it made.
Runs on its own login across 3 tools. Fewer connections means a smaller blast radius.
How to raise it
- Scope: Cut it down from 3 connected tools to the 2 it needs most, each with its own limited login instead of your full account +2
Do all of these to reach 89, up from 87.
