Where to start when everything feels urgent
The launch is blocked. Your work isn't.
Linear answers: “How does the team move this product forward?” WAH answers: “Given everything happening around me, what should I do next?” That's a different axis — product system vs personal attention.
The launch is blocked by Legal. Interviews aren't. WAH doesn't tell you to stare at the blocker. It finds the work you can still move — 20 min available → Book interviews → Product brief moves forward → Launch stays moving.
01
Find the blocker
Ask “What's blocking the launch?” → Unblock the launch · 20 min · Parallel path. Launch is blocked by Legal. Interviews aren't — that's the first split in the graph.
02
Find what you control
Why this? says Legal is blocked — waiting won't help / Interviews are the parallel path you control / 20 min today → keeps the launch moving. Not who's assigned, but who can act.
03
Follow what it unlocks
Booking interviews today unblocks the product brief, which unblocks the launch decision. One parallel move keeps the chain moving while legal clears. WAH builds a model of your work → understands your current state → chooses the highest-leverage action.
Great. Let Linear manage the product. Let WAH decide what you should do with the next 20 minutes. Great for teams already on Linear — WAH is the system of personal attention, not another issue tracker.
