Lead with the subject
Use concise titles and TL;DRs to set expectations.
Provide context and decisions
State the situation, what is decided, and what needs input.
Be explicit about asks
Specify who needs to act, by when, and the desired format.
Keep it discoverable
Use threads, tags, and links so updates are easy to find later.
