Name the connector the first time, e.g. "Using Gigwell MCP, …", so the assistant knows to use your Gigwell data.

Be specific about the date range, currency, artist, agent or status you care about. Swap in your own details wherever you see [brackets].

Ask follow-ups in plain language: "now break that down by quarter", "only confirmed shows", "which agent handled that one?"

Ask for a table or a file when you need to share it: "put that in a table I can paste into a spreadsheet".

Check before you act. If a number looks off, ask "which report and filters did you use?" Gigwell MCP is read-only, so the assistant can analyze your data but can't change anything in Gigwell.

Using Gigwell MCP, tell me who I am, which agency I'm connected to, and what kinds of reports you can run.

Xero: "Compare this month's sales invoices in Xero with my Gigwell invoices and flag any that don't match, including voided ones." A good one to run weekly before closing receivables.

Email drafts: "Draft a friendly payment reminder for each buyer with an overdue balance, including the invoice number and amount." "Draft a reply to this offer listing [Artist A]'s open dates in [month]." Review and send them yourself.
