SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? When building a workbook, PowerPoint deck, or executive report from messy or conflicting source files, AI-generated outputs often blend contradictory numbers, hide assumptions, and present guesses as facts. This Skill forces a structured preparation step that separates facts, assumptions, estimates, and conflicts before any file is created. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Source Inventory: Catalogs every source with type, date, owner, status, limitations, and what it can or cannot support. - Fact/Assumption/Estimate Split: Separates verified facts from assumptions, placeholders, interpretations, and open questions so nothing unsupported slips into the final file. - Conflict Log: Records where sources disagree on numbers, dates, or decisions, and flags which conflicts need a human ruling. - File Specification & Human-Review Gate: Produces a tab map or slide outline with claim-level source IDs, then lists the decisions a human must make before file creation begins. - Use Case: Before asking AI to build a quarterly board deck from a folder of spreadsheets, exports, and meeting notes, run this Skill to get a source inventory, conflict log, and slide spec with evidence requirements. ## Quick Start Use the office-file-truth-setup skill to prepare a verified truth layer from the attached source folder before creating my executive report.

FAQPage Schema
How do I prepare source files before creating a PowerPoint deck with AI?

Run a truth-layer pass first: inventory every source with its status and limitations, split facts from assumptions, and log conflicts. Then define a slide spec with claim headlines and source IDs before any deck is generated.

How do I stop AI from blending conflicting numbers in a report?

Use a conflict log that records each disagreement between sources, why it matters, and whether a human decision is needed. The workflow explicitly forbids blending numbers or silently choosing one source over another.

What should a workbook specification include before building it?

A workbook spec should cover purpose, intended user, tab map, raw data tabs, an assumptions tab, calculation layer, output views, a checks tab, and rules for formulas, hardcodes, dates, units, and scenario inputs.

Does this skill create the final Excel workbook or PowerPoint file?

No. It deliberately stops before file creation and ends with a human-review gate listing decisions a person must make first. The final workbook or deck is built only after those decisions are resolved.

When should I not use a truth-layer preparation step?

Skip it for quick throwaway drafts from a single trusted source where no decisions depend on the output. It adds the most value when files will be forwarded, reused, or used for decisions with conflicting inputs.
