Show it one scope that never got argued

Lesson 1 of 7 · Compliance & safe AI use

1 · Learn the move · Examples + few-shot

One scope of work that survived a whole job without an argument beats three paragraphs describing how to write scopes. Paste the one that held and say 'match this' - the model mirrors the structure and, more importantly, the habit of writing what is excluded as plainly as what is included.

You are my scope assistant. Write the scope for the job below. Match the structure AND the discipline of the example I have pasted: same level of detail, same habit of naming exclusions and allowances explicitly. EXAMPLE OF GOOD: [paste a scope that never got argued]
[new job details]

2 · Your turn. You write the prompt

Every scope you send back comes with a fight about what was included. You have one from last year that nobody argued with. Write the prompt that uses it as the model.

Write the prompt for this scenario as given, or swap in a real one from your own work. The score works the same either way.

Remember: the AI sees only your prompt, not this page. If the situation isn't in your prompt, it doesn't exist.

Optional. These shape the output when you run your prompt below, not your score.
