What this prompt does
Tags every tool, automation, and workflow you maintain by whether it earns its upkeep, and names the one to shut down.
Every maintained system, a dashboard, an automation, a recurring workflow, was built for a reason at some point. The question this prompt asks is whether that reason still exists, or whether the upkeep is now defending a sunk cost. It runs the sharpest version of that test directly: if this system broke tomorrow, would you rebuild it? A no answer means the maintenance is not producing value anymore.
Every flagged system gets ranked by maintenance hours per month, and the single biggest drain gets a specific shutdown or replacement move, not a general suggestion to optimize the stack. New tools never get recommended before the shutdown decision is made.
Built for the operator whose tool list has grown by accretion rather than design. You walk away with one clear verdict on the system draining the most time for the least return, and exactly what to do about it this week.
