Run a scheduled personal assistant that builds a task dashboard
A Rippling engineer's Cursor cron agent runs every two hours, reading Slack notes, GitHub PRs, Jira issues and mentions, deduplicating them and posting a dashboard.
Done with Cursor
What they did
Abhishek Singh at Rippling drops meeting notes, action items, TODOs and Loom links into a Slack channel during the day. A Cursor Automations cron agent runs every two hours in a cloud sandbox. It reads that channel along with his GitHub PRs, Jira issues and Slack mentions, deduplicates across them, and posts a dashboard.
How it went
The source gives no metrics for this assistant. It says Singh went on to build other automations, such as Slack-to-Jira issue creation and Confluence summaries, and that the most useful ones get shared across the team.
