{ "name": "Write a weekly project status report", "nodes": [ { "parameters": { "content": "## Write a weekly project status report\nTurn your rough notes on this week's project work into a short status report that keeps what is done, what is under way, what is blocked and what you need from the reader in separate places, using only what your notes say.\n\n**How to use**\n1. Open **Chat model** and pick your own credential. To use another AI service, delete that node, add the service's chat model node, and connect it to the Model plug under every step and AI check.\n2. Open **Inputs** and paste your material into each field. Examples are filled in so you can try it first.\n3. Click **Execute workflow**.\n4. Open **Result** to read the answer, anything flagged, and the checks left for you.\n\n**Checks**\n- Check 1 (a plain rule, run automatically with no AI): Each quote in the Update (quote) column appears in the your notes from the week, with shortened fragments in the same order. If it fails: try once more, then flag.\n- Check 2 (a plain rule, run automatically with no AI): Every row of the table has one of \"done\", \"under way\", \"blocked\", \"risk\", \"needs a decision\" or \"none\" in the Status column. If it fails: try once more, then flag.\n- Check 3 (a plain rule, run automatically with no AI): Every number in the answer also appears somewhere in at least one of \"your notes from the week\"; this does not check what each number means. If it fails: try once more, then flag.\n- Check 4 (a plain rule, run automatically with no AI): The answer contains the text fragment \"Check the dates and figures against your own records before you send it.\" (including inside a longer word). If it fails: try once more, then flag.\n- Check 5 (a second AI prompt answers pass or fail): Compare the report with the table below. Is every update in the table in the report, under a heading that fits its status? Answer FAIL and quote each update that is missing or sits under the wrong heading. If it fails: try once more, then flag.\n- Check 6 (a second AI prompt answers pass or fail): Read the report against the notes. Does any task, date, cost, person, reason or rating appear that the notes do not give? Answer FAIL and quote each place where one does. If it fails: try once more, then flag.\n- Check 7 (a second AI prompt answers pass or fail): Look at the rows marked needs a decision, and at the blocked rows that someone outside the project can clear. Is each one listed under What We Need From You? Answer FAIL and quote each one that is missing. If it fails: try once more, then flag.\n- Check 8 (you check it by hand): Read the report as the person who receives it. Check each date, cost and name against your own records, and check that the blocked items and risks are described the way you would describe them. Only you know how serious each one is. If it fails: flag it and carry on.\n\nFrom Logic Lab (logiclabhq.com).
