Commitment ledger with overdue escalation
Logs every promise from your sent mail into a Postgres ledger, then on a schedule checks for commitments past their due date and pages you in Slack.

What it does
This two-part workflow first records each commitment you make in outgoing email into a durable Postgres ledger (recipient, promise, due date, status). Separately, a scheduled sweep queries the ledger for anything still open and past due, then escalates those overdue items to you in Slack. It tracks not just what you promised but whether you actually delivered.
When to use it
Use it when a one-time reminder isn't enough and you need a persistent, queryable record of obligations with real escalation. Good for high-volume senders who want an audit trail and a nag when something is late.
How it works
- 1A sent email triggers extraction of any commitments via OpenAI.
- 2Each commitment is inserted into the Postgres ledger with status "open."
- 3On a daily schedule, a query selects open rows whose due date has passed.
- 4A logic step formats the overdue set and exits quietly if empty.
- 5Overdue commitments are posted to Slack as an escalation with their age in days.
