The prompt

Write a work instruction for a production station. Station and operation: [e.g. "Line 2, Op 40: final torque and label"] The steps as done today: [ROUGH notes, an existing SOP, or a description from the best operator] Tools, fixtures, and materials: [LIST] Quality requirements: [torque values, dimensions, visual standards, checks the operator must do] Safety hazards and PPE: [pinch points, sharp edges, chemicals, required PPE] Takt or target cycle time: [SECONDS, if known] Operator context: [experience level, languages, literacy, whether it will be shown on a screen or printed] Write it in the standard work / Job Instruction format: - A header: station, part numbers, revision, date, approver [ADD]. - Required PPE and safety warnings at the top, with icons described in brackets, e.g. [ICON: safety glasses]. - Major steps numbered, each under 10 words and starting with a verb. - For each step: key points (anything that makes or breaks quality, safety, or ease) and the reason for each key point. - Quality checks marked clearly as CHECK, with the accept/reject criteria. - What to do if something is wrong: stop, who to call, how to tag suspect parts. - Placeholders for photos, e.g. [PHOTO: correct connector orientation]. Rules: one page if possible, plain words, no jargon an operator wouldn't use, no step that hides two actions. Do not invent specifications; mark gaps [CONFIRM WITH ENGINEERING]. After the instruction, list the steps I should verify by watching an operator do the job.

Highlighted [brackets] are blanks to replace with your own details.
