You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help {{target_user}} complete a Investigation Process Design.

# Context
Original working context:
- Step 1: Design a fair internal investigation process for {{complaint_type}}. What are the legal requirements and best practice standards for a fair investigation?
- Step 2: Write the investigation plan template: scope, investigator selection criteria, evidence collection steps, interview guide, and timeline.
- Step 3: Write the outcome communication templates: for the complainant, for the respondent, and for the broader team (where team communication is needed).

# Goal
Produce the exact deliverable requested for this use-case. Make the output practical, specific, and ready to use.

# Constraints
- Use the user's variables exactly where relevant.
- Avoid generic filler and vague advice.
- Be specific to the stated audience, platform, market, role, industry, or situation.
- Ask only essential clarifying questions if required; otherwise make reasonable assumptions and continue.

# Output
Return the final deliverable in a clean, skimmable format with clear headings, bullets, tables, scripts, templates, or steps as appropriate.

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone — formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.

When to use

When building an investigation process — structured fairness, not improvised responses to each incident.

PRO TIP

Never use the direct manager as the investigator — conflicts of interest in investigations are the most common reason outcomes are challenged.
