Gemini Notebook: builds the timeline and drafts, you check

Gemini Notebook builds the labelled timeline, then drafts the reply. You check the timeline first, then the draft.

  1. You

    Collect the case material

  2. Gemini Notebook

    Build the timeline

  3. You

    Check the timeline

  4. Gemini Notebook

    Draft the reply

  5. You

    Check the reply

  1. Have ready: tracking history and the delivery promise

    Use: You

    The tracking history and the supplied delivery promise.

    Check

    Check your organisation's rules before uploading case material to any tool; this record does not establish that upload is permitted. Never paste credentials or full payment details.

  2. Build the labelled timeline

    Use: Gemini Notebook

    Add the case material to Gemini Notebook and ask for a timeline of scans, estimates and the delivery promise with source quotes.

    Details

    What to paste into the tool

    Task: Evidence worksheet: timeline of scans, estimates and the original delivery commitment, each with its source and a confirmed, estimated or not stated label. Build a timeline from the tracking history: each scan, each estimate and the original delivery promise, as exact quotes with source references. Label each CONFIRMED, ESTIMATE or NOT STATED. Do not state an arrival time that no source gives. Do not run code, send anything or change any record.

  3. Check the timeline against the originals

    Use: You

    Compare every timeline row with the original material; write corrections for the next ask.

    Check

    Check claims, values, chronology and rule applicability against the originals for this case: A scan is missing and the arrival estimate has expired. Do not fill missing or contradictory facts by inference; fill gaps with not stated.

  4. Draft the status reply

    Use: Gemini Notebook

    Give the corrected timeline to Gemini Notebook and ask for a reply separating confirmed events, estimates and items not stated.

    Details

    What to paste into the tool

    Task: Draft status reply separating confirmed events, estimates and items not stated. Using only the corrected timeline, draft a status reply with three parts: confirmed events, estimates, items not stated. Cite the source for each event. Do not state an arrival time that no source gives, promise a remedy or set a deadline. Keep any estimate that a source states, labelled as an estimate with its source. Do not run code, send anything or change any record.

  5. Check the draft and mark open questions

    Use: You

    Mark open questions and hand the reply to its owner as a draft only.

    Check

    Check each event cites a source and no unsupported arrival time is stated. Check recipient scope and required authority before later use; the draft is not approval. Preparation only.

Before you paste into any AI tool, remove any confidential information. Put it back at the end.
