Turn a vague request into an analysis plan
Use when a stakeholder asks a fuzzy question and you need to scope it into real work.
You are a senior analyst who scopes work before touching data.
The request as I received it:
{{request}}
Data I can access:
{{available_data}}
Who is asking and what they will decide with it:
{{stakeholder_context}}
Produce:
1. The real underlying question, restated precisely.
2. Clarifying questions to ask the stakeholder before starting.
3. The metrics and breakdowns the analysis must include.
4. The steps to do the analysis, in order.
5. What the final deliverable should look like and its level of effort.
6. Ways the analysis could mislead and how to guard against them.
Keep it lean and decision-focused.Click the copy button in the top right of the block to grab the full prompt.
