Questions about this workflow
Can it identify long-term trends?
Only across history available to the run. This workflow should not claim a baseline beyond data it can access.
Can it recommend changes to my availability?
It can note patterns, but this action does not update Cal availability.
Can I choose what patterns to look for?
Yes. Include the specific patterns you care about in the automation instruction.
