By hand first: Claude drafts from chosen rows

You build the chronology worksheet by hand and choose the rows to share. Claude drafts the brief from those rows.

  1. You

    Build the worksheet by hand

  2. Claude

    Draft from chosen rows

  3. You

    Check against the originals

  1. Read the thread and build the worksheet

    Use: You

    Have ready: the full customer thread and the receiving-team intake requirements. Write one row per event with message ID, quote, tried step and outcome.

    Check

    Check each row against the thread: date, message ID, what was tried and what happened. Leave unclear outcomes unclear.

  2. Draft the brief from the chosen rows

    Use: Claude

    Add the chosen rows to a Claude chat; ask for the draft transfer brief in the intake-requirements order and a separate open-questions list.

    Details

    What to paste into the tool

    Task: Draft transfer brief with tried steps, open asks and evidence references; Unresolved questions and proposed next human decision. Write the brief for the receiving team in the order their intake requirements ask. Include every tried step with its outcome, each open ask, and a message ID beside each point. Do not say the receiving team has accepted the case. Put unresolved questions in a separate list. Use only the rows you are given.

  3. Check the draft against the originals

    Use: You

    Read the draft and open questions against the originals, correct them in the same chat, and close the work as preparation only.

    Check

    Check the brief shows what was tried and what remains, and does not assume acceptance. Settle recipients and authority for any later use separately; this draft is not approval to hand over.

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

Final check

Never paste credentials or full payment details.

The brief shows what was tried and what remains, and does not assume the receiving team accepts the case.

Every statement in the draft traces to a checked row with a source ID.

Gaps stay visible as gaps; none is filled by inference.

No credentials of any kind are copied.

The named reviewer confirms the evidence and the draft; completion is preparation only.

Check the result against your original inputs. Approve it before sharing or acting.

What still needs checking
  • The Gemini Apps source pages do not say which privacy setting or account type the team holds; confirm Keep Activity and account type before uploading confidential case material.
  • Which Notion plan and credit type apply to Notion AI is not established by the source pages, and Notion AI, Notion Agent and Custom Agents are separate surfaces; confirm plan, credits and settings before use.
  • The OpenAI source pages do not say which ChatGPT plan, data-control setting or retention terms the team holds; confirm them before uploading confidential case material.
  • Plan limits and credits change; re-read the cited vendor pages on the day of use.
  • The intake requirements of the receiving team vary by team; each case supplies them and no option assumes a format.
