The OP wanted:

"Is there an easy way to have, say a reminder once a week until maybe
the last 7 days, and then switch to daily again?"

and this is one way to do it.  There's probably a more compact way
using iif and expressions, but I kind of like choose because it's
explicit about how many days in advance the reminder will trigger.

FSET wfunc(x) choose(x, 90, 83, 76, 69, 62, 55, 48, 41, 34, 27, 20, 13, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0)

REM Jan 31 2023 WARN wfunc MSG Something %b.
