Chase a late reply without nagging

Works with ChatGPT · Claude

What you’ll be able to do

Send a polite nudge that gets a response without annoying anyone.

The problem

Follow-ups feel awkward, so people either nag or give up.

What this skill does

AI writes a friendly nudge that restates the ask and makes replying easy.

When to use it

  • Use when someone hasn't replied and you still need an answer.
