Notes → Chronology — Implementation (Real Time)
What You’ll Do in This Implementation Lesson
- Turn raw interview notes into a clean chronology (neutral, time-ordered)
- Flag missing dates, unclear sequences, and any “invented” details
- Save the final chronology into the case folder (mirroring)
In this implementation lesson, you’ll watch the exact workflow: raw intake notes → clean chronology using the included prompt and templates, with a line-by-line accuracy review. The goal is speed without drift.
Implementation Video: Notes → Chronology
Video coming next.
This implementation lesson will show the exact Notes → Chronology workflow using the Module 1 templates and prompt.
You’ll use: Chronology Capture Sheet + M1 Notes → Chronology Prompt (from Module 1 Downloads).
Step-by-Step Workflow
- Open the Chronology Capture Sheet.
Use the basic columns: Date (or Approx.), Event, People Involved, Notes. - Paste the raw notes into the Notes → Chronology prompt.
Keep the input exactly as captured—do not “clean it up” first. - Generate the chronology output.
The output should be neutral, time-ordered, and 1–2 sentences per event. - Review line-by-line for safety.
Check for invented facts, wrong dates, missing time markers, and altered sequences. - Flag gaps immediately.
If you see “late 2023,” write a follow-up question to confirm the month. If a sequence is unclear, mark it. - Mirror the final chronology into your case folder.
Save as a local document (Word/PDF) with a clean file name and date.
Non-Negotiable Safety Rules
- Do not add facts. If it wasn’t in the notes, it doesn’t belong.
- Mark unclear dates as Approx. Then list what you need to confirm.
- Separate source language. Use “Client reports” or “Witness reports” where appropriate.
- Always mirror. AI output must live inside the file, not only inside a chat session.
Next step: Go to Module 1 → Templates & Downloads to grab the Chronology Capture Sheet and the Notes → Chronology prompt, then complete your first chronology.
