The useful result
Schedule a small focus block that stays within the intended hours and behaves visibly when a conflict appears.

- Inspect the supplied example and identify a result that fails the task.
Reclaim documents flexible Focus Time, task and habit scheduling, plus working-hour controls. The useful trick is to test constraints with a small block before trying to optimise an entire week. Use a separate test calendar if possible, and review actual calendar changes rather than assuming the generated schedule respects every preference.

Set the calendar boundaries first
Confirm the connected calendar, timezone and working hours. Set separate meeting or personal hours where appropriate in the current interface. Do not connect every calendar until you understand the scope of changes.
Example / expected result
Illustrative example (not a recorded model result): Timezone: Asia/Dhaka. Work window: 09:00–17:00. Fixed demo meeting: 14:00–14:30.
Check your result
Read a known calendar event and verify its local time before enabling flexible scheduling.
Create one realistic focus goal
Use a small Focus Time goal or supported task/habit block within your plan. Start with 30 minutes rather than a vague all-day productivity target. Use the current official setup if the control names differ.
Example / expected result
Illustrative example (not a recorded model result): One 30-minute reading block, inside working hours and outside the fixed meeting.
Check your result
Check duration, scheduling window and whether the block is flexible or locked.
Introduce a controlled conflict
In the test calendar, place a fixed event over the proposed focus block. Allow the configured scheduler to update, then inspect what actually moved. Do not assume every meeting is safe to rearrange.
Example / expected result
Illustrative example (not a recorded model result): The fixed event stays fixed; the flexible reading block finds another allowed time or reports a conflict.
Check your result
Confirm no event moved outside 09:00–17:00 and no unrelated meeting was changed.
Review before expanding the scope
Check the resulting week and the plan allowance. Remove the temporary conflict after observing it. Add another goal only when the first behaves as intended; keep a manual review of important deadlines.
Explain my proposed schedule using only these listed blocks and constraints. Identify overlaps and outside-hours blocks. Do not invent free time or change any event.Example / expected result
Illustrative example (not a recorded model result): A schedule check listing real conflicts, not a claim that the week is optimised perfectly.
Check your result
Inspect the actual calendar and confirm the timezone, boundaries and final block location. The assistant’s explanation is only a second check.
When it goes wrong
Incorrect timezone or working hours can make a plausible schedule wrong. If a block does not move, check lock state, available slots and plan horizon before increasing automation. A schedule with more focus blocks is not evidence of higher productivity; review whether the time was usable.
Make it your own
Use a test week with two fixed meetings and two flexible 30-minute blocks. Create one conflict and record the actual movement or unresolved scheduling result.
