Tell us what the prompt needs to know
Start with the questions below. Each answer personalizes the playbook and builds the prompt you’ll use at the end.
Your situation
Paste or summarize the complaint using labels instead of names and removing details that aren't needed.
0/10000
List the facts already known, including dates, work locations, reporting lines, and any earlier conversations.
0/10000
Paste the relevant policy language or briefly describe the workplace rule that may apply. Enter "Not available" if none is known.
0/10000
List questions already asked or facts the employee has already explained so the follow-up doesn't repeat them.
