1. What makes a good capstone task?Frequent, low-risk, with a real reader, and small enough to review in full.Complex enough to show the full workflow.Something you have never done before.A task nobody else in the team does.

2. What must the capstone prompt brief include?The tool to be used and its settings.An example of the finished output.The deadline and who will approve it.Task, audience, safe context, format, constraints, and review criteria.

3. Why keep the first output exactly as produced?It shows how much the tool contributed.It records the date of the work.It is the evidence that a review happened at all.It may be needed if the final version is lost.

4. What does a decision note say?What the reader is expected to do next.What was kept, changed, verified and rejected, and why.How long each step of the workflow took.Which tool produced the best version.

5. What are stop conditions for?Defining in advance when the workflow should not be used.Marking the end of each step.Recording when the task was completed.Setting a limit on how many follow-ups to send.

6. Which tasks should be avoided for the capstone?Anything involving a written document.Tasks done by more than one person.Tasks that take longer than an hour.Legal, medical, financial, HR and confidential work.

7. Why write down what success would look like before building anything?It shortens the build.It tells you which tool to choose.Otherwise you will judge the result by how much effort it took.It is required before using an AI tool.

8. Your capstone review produced no rejections at all. What should you check?Whether the task was too simple.Whether you were reviewing or approving.Whether the output was long enough.Whether the prompt brief was too detailed.

9. Which part of the capstone package is the durable one?The workflow: brief, review checklist, stop conditions and decision step.The final output.The prompt.The tool you used.

10. Can the capstone workflow be reused for a higher-risk task?Yes, provided the same reviewer is available.Yes, if the content is anonymised first.Not unless the tool is approved for it.Not without redesign — its checks were sized for a low-risk task.
