Suggested prompt
Written by this directory, inspired by the source. Replace the [bracketed] parts.
Find every executed contract, amendment, and addendum in my inbox for [property address]. Read each document and build a deadline table: deadline name, date and time, the contract section that sets the deadline, and the source document. Include option/inspection period end, earnest money due, financing approval deadline, appraisal deadline, and closing. If two documents give different dates, stop and ask me which date controls. After I approve the table, add each deadline to my calendar with a 24-hour reminder.
