The skill isn't prompting. It's direction. Decide what the AI should do, what the human must own, and where review has to happen.
This is not a prompt generator. It creates a work brief and human review plan. Nothing is sent to an AI model.
Step 1 of 6About 60 seconds
1 / 6 — The job
What kind of work is this?
Choose the closest shape of task. You can add a short goal afterwards.
Optional: name the goal
2 / 6 — Delegation
What can the AI actually own?
Choose the highest level of delegation that feels safe for this job.
3 / 6 — Human judgement
Where must a human stay in charge?
Pick all that matter. These become review checkpoints.
4 / 6 — Non-delegables
What must the AI not do?
Select the boundaries that apply.
5 / 6 — What good looks like
How will you judge the output?
Choose the qualities that matter most.
Optional: add one hard constraint
6 / 6 — Review rhythm
When should the human review?
Do not wait until the end if a wrong turn would be expensive.

Take the brief into the real work
Copy it into your task, project note or AI conversation — then keep the human checkpoints intact.
How to direct AI work instead of just writing prompts
AI Work Director separates the job into a goal, delegation level, non-delegable boundaries, quality criteria and human review checkpoints. It is designed for people using AI inside real work where the output still needs judgement.
The skill isn't prompting. It's direction.
A clever instruction cannot compensate for a badly defined job. Direction means deciding what the machine is allowed to do, where it should stop, what evidence it needs and which decisions still belong to a person.
Human review is part of the workflow
Review should happen where errors become expensive: before publication, before irreversible actions, when evidence is weak, or when strategic judgement matters.
Where this fits
If you are still deciding whether the work should be automated at all, start with Should I Automate This?. If the work is part of a wider prioritisation decision, use The Priority Desk. See the Workshop Map for the wider system.
AI Work Director FAQs
Is this a prompt generator?
No. It creates a task brief and division of labour. You can use that brief with any suitable AI system.
Does the tool call an AI model?
No. It runs entirely in the browser.
Why define what must not be delegated?
Because safe and useful AI work is partly about boundaries: decisions, evidence, confidential information, irreversible actions and final accountability.
