Prompt of the DayWrite a first-draft process doc (SOP) from how you do it

You do something well and need to document it so others can too.

Turn my description into a clean step-by-step process document (SOP) someone new could follow. Include: purpose, when to use it, numbered steps, tools needed, common mistakes to avoid, and a definition of 'done.' Ask me about any step that seems incomplete.

How I do it:
[describe the process]

For anything you'll act on, ask 'what did you assume, and what would change your answer if it were wrong?' It surfaces the confident-but-wrong risk in 10 seconds.

Don't Do ThisDon't describe the format when you could show it

Explaining the structure you want in prose takes longer than showing it and works worse, because your description is ambiguous and an example is not.

Instead: Paste one good example from your own files and say "match this structure and tone." One sample beats a paragraph of instructions.
