Turn messy symptom notes into a structured bug report—without inventing logs or repro steps you did not run.

Protocol

1. 1

   Step 1 of 4

   Dump what you actually saw (3 min).

   Paste product/version, environment, what you did, what you expected, what happened, and any log/screenshot text you really have. If you did not copy the console, write NOT CAPTURED. Redact tokens and customer PII.

2. 2

   Step 2 of 4

   Lock “do not invent logs.”

   Paste the rules first so the model cannot add a 500 or a stack frame that looks plausible.

   Copy-paste prompt

   Copy rules

   Turn my messy notes into a structured bug report.
   
   Hard rules:
   - Use only symptoms, steps, and logs I pasted.
   - Do not invent stack traces, request IDs, status codes, timestamps, or browser versions.
   - If a field is missing, write NOT CAPTURED or UNKNOWN.
   - Do not invent a root cause. You may list questions.
   - If you see a secret, redact it and tell me.
   
   Output markdown:
   ### Title
   ### Environment
   ### Steps to reproduce (only what I did)
   ### Expected
   ### Actual
   ### Logs / evidence (or NOT CAPTURED)
   ### Impact (only if I stated it)
   ### Open questions
   
   Confirm the rules, then wait.

3. 3

   Step 3 of 4

   Generate the ticket and fill NOT CAPTURED yourself.

   Go capture the missing log if the bug matters. Then send:

   Generate command

   Copy generate command

   Here are my notes. Structure the bug report. If I did not paste a log, write NOT CAPTURED. Do not guess a status code or root cause.

4. 4

   Step 4 of 4

   File it in the tracker you already use.

   You still create the issue. If you need a one-line Slack alert, use the block below.

   Slack one-liner

   Copy slack one-liner

   Write a 2-line Slack ping from the title and actual result only. No invented severity. Link placeholder: [ISSUE URL].

When not to

• Do not let the model invent a stack trace, Sentry ID, or “repro 100%.”
• Do not paste production secrets or full customer payloads.
• Do not treat a guessed root cause as the ticket’s conclusion.
• Skip this recipe if you only have “it feels slow” and no steps. Time it once, then come back.
