Short excerpts for the posts on your blog page
Write a one- or two-sentence excerpt for each post that has none, so your blog page shows a proper summary instead of a cut-off paragraph.

- Time
- about 15 min
Find which of my last [20] published posts have no excerpt. Write one for each in [English], one or two sentences that say what the reader gets from the post, with no clickbait. Show me a table and wait for my corrections, then set them.

If Mitos is already in your AI assistant, this is enough:
Write excerpts for my last [20] posts that have none; show me the table first.
What happens
- The AI assistant lists your recent posts and reads each one, excerpt included.
- It writes the missing excerpts and shows you the table in the chat.
- Setting the excerpt on a live post waits for your approval, in the chat where your AI assistant supports it, otherwise in Mitos. The previous version is kept, so each can be undone for 30 days.
