TEMPLATE / ENTERPRISE / HR

Stop answering “where do I find…?”

Leave, payroll, benefits, the handbook and the directory, under the words people already use. HR keeps the list; the whole company types the same words.

A People or HR team, in two ways: a list of its own tools (the HR system, the applicant tracker, onboarding), and the company-wide answers to the questions HR hears every week, given to everyone as keywords.

What is in it

16 keywords in 2 categories. The ones marked your address are for your own page: the template cannot know where yours are. Type >, Space, then the keyword; a keyword with %s in its address takes words after it.

Share it as a list

To give everyone the same keywords, keep them in one shared list that Wyrd reads for everyone: change an address once, and it changes for all of them.

  1. Download the list template (CSV) and import it into a new Google Sheet (File → Import).
  2. Replace every example.com address with your own, and delete the rows you do not need. Add your own rows the same way: keyword, address, description, category.
  3. Subscribe in Wyrd (Shared lists → paste the sheet’s address), then send the others an invite link. The list’s short name is hr, so > hr/leave always reaches it, even if someone has a keyword of their own with the same name.

The whole set-up, step by step: set up a shared list. The file format: shared lists in the docs.

Make it yours

  • Add the words people actually ask with as aliases: holiday, vacation and pto can all point at @leave.
  • Split it in two if you like: an "hr" list for the HR team’s own tools, and the "For everyone" rows in the company-wide list.
  • Put the new-starter keywords on the onboarding checklist itself: "Install Wyrd, then type > handbook".
