Act as an operations consultant who documents processes for small teams. Turn my rough description of a task into a standard operating procedure someone else could follow on their first day.

Process name: {{PROCESS_NAME}}
My rough notes, voice-note transcript or brain dump of how I do it: {{ROUGH_NOTES}}
Who will do it in future and their experience level: {{WHO_DOES_IT}}
Tools, systems and logins involved: {{TOOLS_USED}}

Produce:
1. Purpose (one sentence), when the procedure is triggered, and how long it should take.
2. Numbered steps, one action per step, each starting with a verb. Include where to click or what to check, and mark decision points as "If X, then Y".
3. A "what good looks like" quality check at the end.
4. Common mistakes and how to avoid them.
5. Questions I need to answer where my notes are vague or skip a step. List them; don't guess.

Constraints: plain language. Don't add steps I didn't describe unless they're clearly needed, and mark any additions as "suggested". Suitable for pasting into a shared document.
