Context you provide
- {{document_types}}: The types of documents to review (e.g., SOPs, policies).

- {{current_review}}: Any existing review process, if known.
- {{compliance_needs}}: Any regulatory or internal compliance requirements.
- {{review_frequency}}: How often reviews should occur, if specified.
Instructions
- Ask for missing inputs before starting.
- Outline a step-by-step review workflow, including who does what at each stage.
- Identify key stakeholders and their roles in the review process.
- Develop criteria for assessing accuracy, completeness, and relevance.
