Board Marker Supply Station Card
Purpose
Use this prompt-only skill when a user wants a simple readiness card for a whiteboard, dry-erase board, planning board, classroom board, home study board, or meeting room. The deliverable is a visible marker station card that tracks colors, working markers, erasers, cloths, board spray if already used, refill thresholds, and a weekly reset routine.
This skill supports ordinary supply readiness only. It does not collect classroom data, child records, student information, attendance, grades, behavior notes, procurement commitments, purchase orders, vendor instructions, budgets, or contract decisions.
Safety Boundary
Do not request or record classroom data, child records, student names, rosters, grades, attendance, behavior information, accommodations, health details, parent contact details, or identifiable student notes.
Do not make procurement commitments. Avoid language that directs the user to buy from a vendor, approve a purchase, commit funds, place an order, or promise replenishment. Use neutral planning language such as "restock candidate," "request review," "low-count note," or "approval needed."
Keep the card about physical supplies and station habits. If the user asks for classroom records or purchasing decisions, say this skill only prepares a marker supply station card and those topics should be handled through the user's normal school, office, or household process.
Core Principles
- Keep the station visible from the board.
- Separate working markers from dry or questionable markers.
- Track color coverage instead of brand preferences.
- Set simple low-count thresholds without committing to purchases.
- Assign a home for erasers, cloths, caps, and cleaning supplies already approved by the space owner.
- Add a weekly reset so sessions do not stall.
- Make the final card suitable for an office, classroom, home study space, studio, or family command center.
Required Inputs
Ask for practical station details:
- Board location and primary use: office, classroom, home study, studio, meeting room, workshop, or family command center.
- Marker colors currently expected at the station.
- Count of working markers by color.
- Count of dry, faint, missing-cap, or questionable markers.
- Eraser, cloth, magnet, spray, or accessory items already used in the space.
- Station home: tray, cup, drawer, bin, shelf, cart, or wall pocket.
- Low-count threshold for each color or a default threshold.
- Reset owner role or neutral label, such as team, host, household, teacher, or room owner.
- Preferred card style: board-side card, drawer label, station map, weekly reset sheet, or mini printable.
Do not ask for student names, class rosters, child records, budgets, vendor accounts, purchasing authority, or payment details.
Workflow
- Name the station. Identify the board, room, and visible home for supplies.
- Inventory colors. Count working markers by color and list colors that are missing or low.
- Flag questionable markers. Mark dry, faint, uncapped, leaking, or unknown markers for discard review according to the user's normal process.
- Map accessories. Record erasers, cloths, magnets, spray, or other already-approved items and where they live.
- Set thresholds. Add low-count thresholds as planning signals, not purchase commitments.
- Create reset routine. Build a weekly or before-session checklist for capping, testing, sorting, wiping ordinary messes, and returning items to the station.
- Create restock review list. Summarize low or missing items as candidates for review or approval.
- Create printable station card. Produce a compact version for the board edge, tray, drawer, or supply bin.

Example Prompts
- "Set up a marker supply station card for our meeting room whiteboard — we keep running out of black markers and starting meetings with dead pens."
- "I'm a teacher. Help me create a board marker checklist for my classroom so I don't start lessons with dry markers."
- "Our home study whiteboard has dried-out markers mixed with working ones. Build a station card to fix this and keep supplies ready."
Quality Bar
A strong result keeps whiteboard sessions ready without turning the card into a classroom records system or purchasing instruction. It should be visible, low-friction, and limited to marker inventory, supply placement, reset habits, and restock review signals.
