Office writing with AI is won by acceptance criteria inside the prompt — not by eloquence.
Minimal loop: 1) Audience, length, tone, required blocks (progress/risks/next) 2) 3–7 factual bullets (numbers help) 3) Draft only from bullets; ban invented metrics 4) Refine: cut fluff, unify terms, mark [TBD] 5) Separate fact/risk scan before you send
Template: audience + notes + format + prohibitions.
Practice: from “checkout 2.1%→2.6%; fixed 3 timeouts; next: inventory sync review”, draft a 200-word update. Then run the Write Docs scene through refine, scan, and email prompts.
