Title

One-line summary

The prompt

Write an email from my notes below.

To: [WHO THE EMAIL IS FOR AND YOUR RELATIONSHIP, E.G. "MY MANAGER" OR "A CLIENT I HAVE NEVER MET"]
What I want to happen after they read it: [THE OUTCOME, E.G. "APPROVE THE BUDGET" OR "RESCHEDULE WITHOUT ANNOYING THEM"]
Tone: [E.G. WARM BUT PROFESSIONAL / FORMAL / BRIEF AND DIRECT]
Rough notes: [YOUR BULLET POINTS — FRAGMENTS AND TYPOS ARE FINE]

Rules:
- Under [NUMBER, E.G. 150] words of body text.
- The main point or request appears in the first two sentences. Background comes after it, not before.
- No filler openings ("I hope this email finds you well," "Just reaching out") and no filler closings ("Please don't hesitate to reach out").
- Do not invent details that are not in my notes. If something essential is missing — a date, a name, an amount — put [MISSING: what it is] in the draft where it belongs instead of guessing.
- Match the formality to the relationship I described, not to a generic business register.

Give me:
1. Three subject line options: one plain, one that includes a specific detail from the notes, one short enough to read in full on a phone.
2. The email body.
3. One sentence noting anything in my notes you left out and why.

Write it so someone can paste it straight into Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini and fill the [BRACKETS].
