What is process review cadence?

Process review cadence is a concept in personal epistemology: Periodically review all your workflows to retire outdated ones and improve active ones.

Example: You sit down on the last Sunday of the month with a list of every workflow you run — morning routine, weekly report, client onboarding, code deployment, meal prep, expense tracking. You notice that the client onboarding workflow has not been executed in three months because you changed roles. The expense tracking workflow still includes a step where you manually export CSV files, even though the tool now has an API. And there is no workflow at all for the monthly stakeholder update you have been doing ad hoc for six weeks. You retire the onboarding workflow, update the expense tracker, and draft a skeleton for the stakeholder update. In forty-five minutes, your entire workflow portfolio is current.

This concept is part of Phase 41 (Workflow Design) in the How to Think curriculum, which builds the epistemic infrastructure for workflow design.
