## Best Practices for Asana + Voice

### 1. Task Naming Conventions

```
Voice-friendly task titles:
✅ "Client XY: Website bug fix"
✅ "Q4 report for ABC Corp"
✅ "Meeting follow-up: Project Z"

Avoid:
❌ "URGENT!!!" (without context)
❌ "Fix this" (too vague)
❌ "Call follow-up" (too generic)
```

### 2. Priority Matrix for Voice Input

```
Automatic priority assignment:

🔥 URGENT (drop everything):
• "Production down", "Client can't work"
• "Meeting in 1 hour", "Deadline today"

⚠️ HIGH:
• "End of week deadline", "Important client"
• "Blocking other work", "Manager request"

📊 MEDIUM:
• "Next week", "When possible"
• "Improvement", "Nice to have"

📋 LOW:
• "Sometime", "Future consideration"
• "Documentation", "Internal optimization"
```

### 3. Dependency Management

```
Automatic dependencies from calls:
"Design first, then development"
→ Task dependency: Design → Development

"Proceed after client approval"
→ Approval gate with client tag

"Waiting on external delivery"
→ External dependency with reminder
```
