Example Workflows
New client onboarding:
> "I have a new client, Acme Corp. Contact is Jane at jane@acme.com. They need a website redesign, budget around $5k."
End-of-week invoicing:
> "Show me all uninvoiced time for the Acme project this week and generate an invoice."
Scope creep detection:
> "Jane asked for a blog section — is that in scope for the Acme redesign?"
Follow-up on overdue invoice:
> "Invoice #INV-042 is 2 weeks overdue. Draft a polite but firm follow-up to Jane."
