Starter prompt

Draft workpaper narratives for flagged anomalies. Keep wording conservative and clearly separate facts from follow-up recommendations.

Inputs:
- Anomaly list from [MindBridge / DataSnipper]: [PASTE]
- Engagement context: [CLIENT TYPE / INDUSTRY / SIZE]
- Applicable framework: [GAAS / PCAOB / ISA]
- Prior-year equivalent narrative (style anchor): [PASTE]

Return:
1) Per-anomaly narrative (fact, relevance, proposed follow-up).
2) Aggregated pattern summary (if any).
3) Recommended procedures for the senior.
4) Items to escalate to the partner.

Caveats

- Do a human review before sending, publishing, filing, or making a decision.
- Verify numbers, names, claims, citations, and compliance-sensitive details.
- AI drafts. You decide. Final responsibility is yours.
