Auto-shortens new meetings so you get buffer time. No more back-to-back, no manual blocking.
Outlook 365 has a built-in setting that shortens every new meeting you create by 5 or 10 minutes — so a 30-min meeting actually ends at the 25-min mark, leaving you a real bathroom-and-water break before the next one. The setting exists, but it's in a registry key Microsoft hides from the UI; most Outlook users never find it. This automation flips on the EnableEventsShortening keys, sets the buffer minutes for short (<60min) and long (≥60min) meetings, and picks whether the buffer comes off the start or the end. Takes effect on every new event you create; existing events are untouched. The discovery interview matches the buffer to your work pattern: a CPA running 6 client calls a day usually wants 5/10 min buffers; an exec doing 2 deep-dive meetings a day wants 15/15. We also let you flag meeting types that should never get shortened (recurring 1:1s, all-hands).
