- {{stakeholder audience}}: Identify who will use the diagram (e.g., engineers, management, operators).
Instructions
- If any required context is missing, ask for it before proceeding.
- Analyze the provided process information to identify key steps, equipment, and decision points.
- Create a structured textual description of the process flow, suitable for conversion into a visual diagram.
- Organize the flow logically, highlighting critical decision points and feedback loops.
