Three quote requests: two drafts ready, one question for the owner

A replay of a real run, recorded 2026-11-12. The real run took 7 seconds. Played here at its real speed. Nothing was edited. The business in it is made up.

What was asked

I own a small pressure washing business. The business, the customers and every detail below are made up for a demo.

My prices:
- house wash, one story: 250. two story: 375
- driveway: 120, up to two cars wide
- roof soft wash: I price these in person, never by message
- I do not do: paint stripping, gutters, anything over two stories

Three requests came in overnight:
A. "Hi, can I get a price to wash my house? It is one story. And the driveway, it fits two cars. Thanks, Pat"
B. "How much to clean my roof? Lots of black streaks. Two story house."
C. "Do you wash decks? Mine is about 12 by 20 and pretty green."

Make these files in this folder:
1. One draft reply for each request you can answer from my prices: draft-A.txt, draft-B.txt, draft-C.txt as they apply. Under 80 words each, friendly, plain words, no exclamation marks. These are drafts for me to read. Nothing gets sent.
2. ask-me.txt: for any request you cannot fully answer from my prices, the one question you need me to answer before you can draft it. Do not write a draft for that request.

Rules: use only my prices. Never invent a price, a date or a service. If a job is priced in person, the draft offers a visit and gives no number. When you are done, tell me in three lines what is ready and what is waiting on me.

What it did, step by step

3 s Wrote the file draft-A.txt
4 s Wrote the file draft-B.txt
6 s Stopped and wrote its question for the owner: ask-me.txt
7 s Finished.

What it said when it was done

Ready: draft-A.txt (house wash 250 + driveway 120 = 370 for Pat) and draft-B.txt (roof, offers a visit, no price).
Waiting on you: request C, the deck. Your prices don't cover decks, so ask-me.txt has my question and I wrote no draft.
Question for you: do you wash decks, and if so, what do you charge for one about 12 by 20?

What it made

draft-A.txt

Hi Pat,

Thanks for reaching out. Here is the price for your job:

- House wash, one story: 250
- Driveway, up to two cars wide: 120

That comes to 370 in total.

If that works for you, let me know and we can find a time that suits you.

Thanks again,

draft-B.txt

Hello,

Thanks for getting in touch. Black streaks on a roof are something we can help with. I price roof soft washes in person, so I would like to stop by, take a look and give you a quote on the spot.

Let me know a few times that suit you and we can set up a visit.

Thanks,

ask-me.txt

Request C (deck, about 12 by 20, pretty green):

Do you wash decks, and if so, what is your price for one this size (or how do you want me to handle it, for example a visit instead of a number)?

No draft written for C until you answer.

Rough notes into a printable price sheet and reply templates

A replay of a real run, recorded 2026-11-12. The real run took 12 seconds. Played here at its real speed. Nothing was edited. The business in it is made up.

What was asked

I run a small lawn care business. The business and every detail below are made up for a demo.

My rough notes:
- weekly mowing: small yard 45, medium 55, large 70. every other week add 10
- edging + blow off included
- shrub trimming 60 an hour, 1 hr minimum
- spring cleanup starts at 180, depends on the yard
- mulch: 85 a yard installed, 3 yard minimum
- no tree work, no sod, no irrigation repair
- gate has to be 36 inches wide or more for the mower
- I answer quotes at night and forget to follow up

Make me three files in this folder:
1. price-sheet.html: one printable page a customer could read, with my prices exactly as written, what is included, and what I do not do. Plain and clean. No scripts, no outside fonts or images. Business name: Anytown Lawn Care.
2. reply-template.txt: a short reply to a new quote request that asks only for what I need to price it (yard size, gate width, what they want done), with blanks in [brackets].
3. follow-ups.txt: a day-2 and a day-7 follow-up, two sentences each, no pressure.

Rules: use only my numbers. Do not add a price, a discount, a guarantee or a service I did not list. When you are done, tell me in three lines what you made and anything in my notes I should clear up.

What it did, step by step

7 s Wrote the file price-sheet.html
8 s Wrote the file reply-template.txt
9 s Wrote the file follow-ups.txt
12 s Finished.

What it said when it was done

I made `price-sheet.html` (one printable page with no scripts, fonts or images), `reply-template.txt` (asks for yard size, gate width and what they want done), and `follow-ups.txt` (day-2 and day-7, two sentences each).
Things to clear up in your notes:
- "Every other week add 10" could mean $10 added to each visit or $10 added once. I wrote "add $10" and left it vague.
- "Small, medium and large" yards have no size definitions, so customers can't tell which one they are.
- Spring cleanup "starts at 180" has no stated basis, so the price sheet just says it depends on the yard.
- Weekly mowing is listed per visit, which I assumed. Say so if it's a monthly rate.

What it made

price-sheet.html

reply-template.txt

Hi [Name],

Thanks for reaching out to Anytown Lawn Care. To get you a price, I just need a few things:

1. Yard size: small, medium, or large? [yard size]
2. Gate width: is the gate at least 36 inches wide? [gate width]
3. What would you like done? [mowing weekly / every other week, shrub trimming, spring cleanup, mulch]

Once I have those, I'll send your price.

Thanks,
[Your name]
Anytown Lawn Care

DAY 2

Hi [Name], I wanted to check that my quote for your yard reached you. If you have any questions, just reply and I'm happy to help.

DAY 7

Hi [Name], just following up on the quote I sent last week. If you'd still like to get on the schedule, let me know, and no worries if the timing isn't right.

A seven-day reading plan from Proverbs, every verse checked

A replay of a real run, recorded 2026-11-12. The real run took 30 seconds. Played here at double speed. Nothing was edited, except that the lookup tool's folder name is shortened.

What was asked

Build me a seven-day reading plan on diligent work from the book of Proverbs, King James Version.

You have a lookup tool for an offline King James Bible. Run it like this:
  python "bible/search.py" "Proverbs 10:4"
  python "bible/search.py" --phrase "diligent"

Rules:
- Never type a verse from memory. Every verse you quote must be copied from the tool's output, word for word.
- Use the tool for nothing except looking up verses. Do not read or write anything outside this folder.

Make two files in this folder:
1. plan.md: a title, then Day 1 to Day 7. Each day has one verse from Proverbs on diligence, sloth, planning or honest work, written as a line that starts with the reference in bold and then the verse in double quotes, like this:
   **Proverbs 10:4** "..."
   Then one plain sentence saying what the verse is about in its setting, and one question to think about at work that day. Seven different verses. No commentary beyond that.
2. checked.txt: one line per verse: the reference, and the exact command you ran to get it.

When you are done, tell me in two lines what you made.

What it did, step by step

5 s Looked up Proverbs 10:4 in the Bible on the computer
6 s Looked up Proverbs 6:6 in the Bible on the computer
6 s Looked up Proverbs 13:4 in the Bible on the computer
6 s Looked up Proverbs 21:5 in the Bible on the computer
7 s Looked up Proverbs 12:24 in the Bible on the computer
7 s Looked up Proverbs 14:23 in the Bible on the computer
7 s Looked up Proverbs 24:30 in the Bible on the computer
19 s Looked up Proverbs 24:27 in the Bible on the computer
26 s Wrote the file plan.md
28 s Wrote the file checked.txt
29 s Finished.

What it said when it was done

I made `plan.md`, a seven-day plan with one KJV verse a day (Proverbs 10:4, 6:6, 13:4, 21:5, 12:24, 14:23 and 24:27). Each day has a one-sentence summary and a work question, and every verse was copied word for word from the lookup tool.
I also made `checked.txt`, which lists each reference with the exact command I ran for it. Proverbs 6:6 is the tool's text, which ends in a colon because the sentence continues in verse 7.

What it made

# Seven Days on Diligent Work: Proverbs (KJV)

## Day 1
**Proverbs 10:4** "He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich."

This verse contrasts the outcome of careless effort with that of steady effort.

Question: Where at work am I handling a task with a slack hand, and what would it look like to give it full effort today?

## Day 2
**Proverbs 6:6** "Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:"

The writer tells the lazy person to learn from the ant, which works without being driven.

Question: What task would I do today if no one were checking on me?

## Day 3
**Proverbs 13:4** "The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat."

This verse says that wanting without working leaves a person empty, while diligence brings fullness.

Question: What do I keep wishing for at work that I have not yet put effort into?

## Day 4
**Proverbs 21:5** "The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; but of every one that is hasty only to want."

Careful, thoughtful planning leads to abundance, while rushing leads to lack.

Question: Which task today deserves a few minutes of planning before I begin?

## Day 5
**Proverbs 12:24** "The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the slothful shall be under tribute."

Diligent people rise to positions of responsibility, while the idle end up serving others.

Question: Who could trust me with more responsibility because of how I work this week?

## Day 6
**Proverbs 14:23** "In all labour there is profit: but the talk of the lips tendeth only to penury."

Actual work produces gain, while talk alone produces only poverty.

Question: Where have I been talking about a task more than doing it?

## Day 7
**Proverbs 24:27** "Prepare thy work without, and make it fit for thyself in the field; and afterwards build thine house."

The verse advises getting the groundwork of your livelihood in order before building up your own comforts.

Question: What foundational work should I finish before moving on to what I would rather do?

What a replay does not show

One run is not a success rate. These three worked the first time. Not every run does, which is why an assistant drafts and a person approves.
A short task is quick. A big one is not. These took seconds because they are small. Real work takes longer and needs your answers along the way.
It only knows what it is told. In the first replay the price list said nothing about decks, so it wrote no reply about the deck and asked the owner instead. In the second it listed four things in the notes that were unclear. That is what you want it to do.
A draft still needs your eyes. In the first replay, one draft offers a quote “on the spot” at the visit. The owner's notes said roofs are priced in person, and did not say when the price is given. Small things like that are why nothing goes out until you have read it.

Try it yourself

Eight prompts for the AI you already use.

Copy one, paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or another AI, and press Enter. Each works by itself with a made-up example. Each works better if you type your own words after the last line. Leave out customer names, phone numbers and passwords.

Read what it writes before you use it. Each prompt tells the AI never to invent a price, a date or a promise, and in our tests it did not (48 of 48 fresh runs passed). An AI can still be wrong. You are the one who sends it.

1 The reply you never have time to write

The thing an assistant does all day, in one try: a reply that asks only for what is missing, and the follow-up for when they go quiet.

The prompt: The reply you never have time to write

You are helping a small service business owner answer a customer who asked for a price.

Write three things, each under its own heading:
1. REPLY: a short, friendly reply to the customer, under 90 words. Thank them, answer what you can from the message, and ask only for the details that are missing to give a price. Do not ask for anything they already told me.
2. WHAT IS MISSING: a list of exactly what I still need from them, and why each one changes the price.
3. FOLLOW-UP: a two-sentence message to send in two days if they have not answered. No pressure.

Rules: never invent a price, a date or a fact about my business. Where you need something from me, write [ASK ME: ...]. Plain words, no exclamation marks, no emojis.

The customer's message is below this line. If nothing is below it, use this made-up one and say that you did: "Hi, we just moved in and the yard is a mess. Can I get a price for a cleanup and then weekly mowing? Thanks, Dana"
