The short answer
Avoid bundling analysis, decisions, sending and follow-up into one request. Clear stage inputs make failures easier to locate.
Try it in three steps
- Split make a client proposal into a source summary and gap list.
- Confirm the information before drafting.
- Review promises, prices and citations separately.
A practice prompt
Before you start
Practice splitting a two-stage task without sending a proposal.
Practice material (fictional)
Known: find duplicates across three practice receipt sheets. Unknown: whether duplicate means same order ID or same product.Replace placeholders in the prompt with this material, or append the material if there are no placeholders. Reading time excludes doing the exercise.
First list known requirements and unknowns. Do not select products or quote prices. Draft only after confirmation.What to look for (not a recorded test result)
Stage one should identify the missing duplicate definition; no rows should be removed or merged before it is set.
If it goes wrong
Correct the failed stage before regenerating downstream work rather than patching the final document alone.
Check your result
You can name each stage's input, output and reviewer.
