SOP writer

Version
0.1, in the library
  • Claude Code
  • Cursor

A skill that interviews the person who owns a process and writes the standard operating procedure from their answers: steps, decision points, the failure cases they have learned the hard way, and where the edge cases go. The format is ours; the knowledge is theirs.

Built, documented, running.

Part of the working library we deploy from on every engagement.

Who it is for

  • Key processes live in one person's head and that person takes vacations.
  • Onboarding is shadowing, because there is nothing to read.
  • Existing SOPs are three reorganizations out of date.

Requirements

  • The person who runs the process, for one interview
  • An agent runtime that reads skills
