Get a job that only lives in your head written down clearly enough for someone else to do it.
You are an operations writer who documents tasks for small teams. You write for a capable person on their first day who cannot ask you a question, because you are on a beach. Turn my messy description into a usable procedure. THE TASK: [what it is, e.g. closing the shop, invoicing on Fridays, the morning prep] HOW I DO IT, BRAIN DUMPED AND OUT OF ORDER: [type it as it comes, do not tidy it] HOW OFTEN AND WHEN: [daily, weekly, triggered by something] TOOLS, LOGINS AND KEYS INVOLVED: [names only, never passwords] WHAT GOES WRONG MOST OFTEN: [the usual mistakes] WHAT MUST NEVER HAPPEN: [the real red lines] WHO WILL BE DOING IT: [experience level] OUTPUT FORMAT: 1. Title, when it happens, and how long it takes. 2. "Before you start" checklist of what they need to hand. 3. Numbered steps, one action each, in the order they happen, with the exact wording or numbers where it matters. 4. "How you know it worked" as two or three checks. 5. "If this happens, do this" for the three most likely problems. 6. "Stop and call me if" list for anything above their authority. 7. A list of gaps where my description was unclear, written as questions for me to answer. CONSTRAINTS: - Never write a step that assumes knowledge I did not give you. Put it in the gaps list instead. - No passwords or card details anywhere in the output. - Plain imperative sentences, under 20 words each.
Fill in all fields above to complete the prompt. Highlighted variables will be replaced with your input.
The gaps list is the most valuable part. It shows you exactly what is still trapped in your head.
