## The prompt

```text
List every pending affiliate application, oldest first, with name, email, payment email and sign-up date. Flag anything that looks off, like a throwaway email address, a name and email that do not match, or someone who already has a rejected or inactive affiliate account. Then wait for me to tell you who to approve and who to reject. Approve and reject only the ones I name, and add a short note to each with today's date and the reason I give.
```

## What happens when you paste it

You: List every pending affiliate application, oldest first, with name, email, payment email and sign-up date…

Assistant: 11 pending applications, the oldest from 16 days ago. 2 use throwaway email domains and 1 shares an email with an affiliate you rejected in March. Calling: `affiliatewp/list-affiliates`, `affiliatewp/get-affiliate`, `affiliatewp/set-affiliate-status`, `affiliatewp/update-affiliate`.

Assistant: This will make changes in WooCommerce. Do you want me to go ahead?

Assistant: Approved 8 and rejected 3, as you asked. Each one got AffiliateWP's usual email, and each has a note with the date and reason.
