Memo to the crews on the 2026 policy changes

policy-update-memo · timeout 1200 s · source

The ask

Sent verbatim as the prompt. The agent works in a copy of the workspace below and sees nothing else.

We've rewritten the crew policies for 2026. Please write the memo that goes to all the crews telling them what changed - both versions are in the folder and Carol's email has the notes. Save it as memo.md.
