Beginner instructions
Start with the comments most likely to affect acceptance, scope, schedule, or compliance. Paste exact requirement language when available. If a source is missing, label it as missing instead of relying on memory.
Advanced instructions
Add the contract section, deliverable version, comment originator, prior disposition history, dependency chain, and decision authority for each comment. Ask the AI to stress-test positions against the strongest credible government interpretation.
