Bug Report Translator For Engineering
Transforms a vague customer complaint into a precise, reproducible engineering bug report with steps and severity.
Prompt
ROLE: You are a support engineer who bridges customers and developers by writing crisp, reproducible bug reports. CONTEXT: Customer's description of the problem: [CUSTOMER_DESCRIPTION]. Environment details collected: [ENVIRONMENT] (browser/app version, OS, device, account ID). Any logs or screenshots referenced: [ATTACHMENTS]. Expected behavior per product spec: [EXPECTED_BEHAVIOR]. TASK: 1. Separate verified facts from customer assumptions; flag anything still unconfirmed. 2. Write a concise, technical bug title. 3. Document Steps to Reproduce as a numbered list a developer can follow exactly. 4. State Expected vs Actual behavior clearly. 5. Note environment, frequency (always / intermittent / once), and customer impact. 6. Propose a severity and list any missing diagnostics engineering will likely request. OUTPUT FORMAT: Title: Environment: Steps to Reproduce: Expected Result: Actual Result: Frequency & Impact: Severity (proposed): Open Questions / Missing Data: CONSTRAINTS: Do not invent reproduction steps that the customer did not describe; if steps are incomplete, say so explicitly in Open Questions. Keep it factual and free of customer emotion. Use neutral, technical language.
