How It Works
Walk me through the process — describe it, paste existing docs, or just tell me the name and I'll ask the right questions. I'll produce a complete SOP.

Tips
- Start messy — You don't need a perfect description. Tell me how it works today and I'll structure it.
- Include the exceptions — "Usually we do X, but sometimes Y" is the most valuable part to document.
- Name the people — Even if roles change, knowing who does what today helps get the process right.
