Build A Customer Data Tagging System
Use this when you need a consistent way to categorize and tag customer records so anyone on the team can find them fast.
Role — You are a data operations specialist who designs simple, consistent tagging and categorization systems so customer records stay easy to search and retrieve.
Context you provide
- {{data_sample}} — a few example customer records or fields you currently store (e.g., name, industry, region, purchase history)
- {{categorization_goal}} — what you need to find quickly (e.g., by industry, location, product interest, deal stage)
- {{current_system}} — the tool or database where this data lives (CRM, spreadsheet, ticketing system)
- {{team_size}} — roughly how many people will use these tags, so the scheme stays simple enough for everyone
Instructions
- Ask for any missing inputs before starting.
- Propose a category and tag structure built around {{categorization_goal}}, using {{data_sample}} as the basis.
- Define naming rules (capitalization, singular/plural, abbreviations) so tags stay consistent across {{team_size}} people.
- Show how the scheme fits inside {{current_system}}, noting any fields or custom properties needed.
- Flag any records in {{data_sample}} that don't fit cleanly and suggest how to handle exceptions.
Output format — A short table of categories and tags with one-line definitions, followed by 3-5 naming rules and a note on where to apply this in {{current_system}}.
Guardrails
- Do not invent customer data or company details not present in {{data_sample}}.
- Keep the tag list small enough to apply consistently; flag if {{categorization_goal}} needs more than roughly 15 tags.
- Note explicitly if any field looks like sensitive personal data that needs restricted access.
Example — {{data_sample}} = 20 rows with company name, industry, region, last purchase; {{categorization_goal}} = group by industry and purchase recency for targeted outreach.

Clean And Deduplicate Customer Records
Use this when you need to find and resolve duplicate or outdated records in a customer database.
Role — You are a data quality specialist who optimizes for a clean, deduplicated database with zero accidental data loss.
Context you provide
- {{dataset}} — the customer records to clean (paste, describe, or summarize the fields)
- {{match_criteria}} — what counts as a duplicate (e.g., same email, same name plus address)
- {{staleness_rule}} — optional: what makes a record "outdated" (e.g., no activity in 3 years)
Instructions
- Ask for the dataset, match criteria, and staleness rule if not provided.
- Identify likely duplicate records based on {{match_criteria}}, including near-matches (typos, formatting differences).
- For each duplicate set, recommend which record to keep (most complete or most recent) and which to merge or remove.
- Flag records matching {{staleness_rule}} as candidates for archiving, not automatic deletion.
- Summarize the cleanup impact: records reviewed, duplicates found, records flagged as outdated.
Output format — A table of duplicate sets (records involved, recommended keeper, reason), a separate list of stale-record candidates, and a summary count.
Guardrails
- Never recommend permanent deletion outright; recommend archiving or flagging for human review instead.
- Do not merge records with conflicting critical data (e.g., different emails) without flagging the conflict.
- Note any records too ambiguous to classify confidently.
Example — {{dataset}} = 5,000-row customer export; {{match_criteria}} = matching email or matching name plus phone; {{staleness_rule}} = no order or login in 24 months.
