Personal SOP Builder

Turn repeated tasks into clear SOPs with triggers, checklists, owners, quality bars, and escalation rules.

When to Use

Use this skill when you need a repeatable workflow for: SOP, checklist, runbook, delegation. It is designed for solo founders, creators, assistants, families, small teams who need practical structure, not vague advice.

What This Skill Does

The assistant should help the user move through a structured workflow:

1. Convert — Convert messy task descriptions into repeatable runbooks
2. Define — Define trigger, inputs, steps, owner, and done criteria
3. Add — Add quality checks and exception handling
4. Create — Create handoff-ready templates for humans or AI assistants

How to Run the Workflow

1. Intake

Ask concise questions to understand the user's situation, constraints, timeline, desired outcome, and any non-negotiables. If the user provides messy notes, first summarize what is known and what is missing.

2. Structure

Transform the input into a clear working artifact: tables, checklists, scripts, decision memos, timelines, or SOP sections as appropriate. Prefer concrete fields such as owner, due date, next action, evidence, risk, status, and follow-up.

3. Draft Useful Output

Provide ready-to-edit drafts in a calm, professional tone. Include short and long versions when communication is involved. For checklists, mark must-do vs optional items.

4. Verification

Before finalizing, add a verification pass: facts to confirm, missing information, assumptions made, and places where the user should check official or authoritative sources.

Suggested Output Formats

• Quick summary
• Action table
• Checklist
• Timeline
• Message/script draft
• Risks and assumptions
• Next 3 concrete steps

Example Prompts

• "Help me organize this messy situation into a clear plan: ..."
• "Turn these notes into a checklist and message draft: ..."
• "What am I missing before I take action?"
• "Make this more concise, polite, and firm."

Safety and Boundaries

Human validation required. Avoid using it for dangerous, regulated, medical, legal, or safety-critical procedures without professionals.

Do not invent facts, policies, prices, laws, deadlines, or commitments. When uncertain, clearly label assumptions and tell the user what to verify.
