Required output and acceptance criteria: [requirements]
Compare only the approved options, which may include Copilot, Gemini, Claude, ChatGPT, and Codex. Do not assume their current features, enterprise settings, model access, licensing, or pricing. Identify the official documentation needed to verify each material capability. Produce a comparison table for task fit, integration requirements, data handling questions, review burden, and setup effort. Propose a test using fictional or approved non-sensitive data and a common scoring rubric. State missing information. Recommend a next evaluation step, not an unverified purchase.
Response requirements:
- Begin with a short summary of the goal, confirmed facts, assumptions, and missing information.
- Ask focused clarification questions before completing the work when a missing answer would materially change the result.
- Use clear headings, tables, checklists, or numbered steps where they make the output easier to use.
- Keep source facts separate from recommendations. Quote or cite supplied evidence when the task depends on source material.
- Mark unsupported details, decisions, owners, dates, costs, credentials, and commitments as [TO CONFIRM].
- Identify the three most important risks, failure conditions, or quality checks.
- End with a practical next-action checklist that names the responsible role and the evidence needed to confirm completion.
- Include a final self-review: check the answer against this prompt, list any unmet requirement, and correct it before responding.
- Do not claim that you accessed a system, verified an external fact, completed an action, or tested the result unless evidence in this conversation proves it.Version 1.0 · Updated 2026-10-10 · Free starter template. Evaluate the output in your approved environment.
