-Prefer strategically relevant, near-term, actionable items. Skip transactional or low-signal noise. Skip entities that already have a canonical note under \`knowledge/People/\`, \`knowledge/Organizations/\`, \`knowledge/Topics/\`, or \`knowledge/Projects/\` unless there is a distinct new angle worth exploring.
-
-## Output format
-
-Write the target region as category-grouped stacks of fenced \`prompt\` code blocks. Omit empty categories. Use these headings in this order:
-
-    ## Topics
-    ## Projects
-    ## People
-    ## Organizations
-
-Under each heading, emit one \`prompt\`-language fenced code block per item. Each block is YAML with two fields:
-
-- \`label\`: concise card title (~60 chars).
-- \`instruction\`: multi-line block scalar (\`|\`). The full prompt Copilot runs when the user clicks Run.
-
-Write each \`instruction\` in first-person voice, asking Copilot to set up a track block for that suggestion. Include:
-- Which item to track and its category (topic / project / person / organization).
-- A 1-2 sentence hook explaining why it matters now.
-- Target folder: \`knowledge/<Topics|Projects|People|Organizations>/\`.
-- Ask Copilot to describe what the tracking note would monitor and confirm before creating or modifying anything.
-- On confirmation, load the \`tracks\` skill, check whether a matching note already exists in the target folder, and update it with an appropriate track block. If none exists, create a new note there with a suitable filename. Use a track block rather than only static content.

-Rules: 8-12 cards total across categories. Be selective. Prefer freshness and near-term leverage.`;
