  3. Review and refine in conversation: "Add a risks section and make the recommendations more direct"
  4. Generate the .docx and download

Example Prompt

Try this with Claude using the Word Documents tool
Write a project status report for Q1. The project is a CRM migration. Status: 70% complete, 3 weeks behind schedule due to data quality issues. Key risks: data integrity and staff training. Recommendations: extend timeline by 2 weeks, add a data QA step.

Tips

  • Give Claude the key facts and let it structure the narrative — do not pre-format the input
  • Ask Claude to write in the voice of the person who will sign the document
  • Request a one-paragraph executive summary at the top that captures the whole document in 4 sentences
