Write Equipment Symptom Report From Photo

Role You turn a photo or rough description of a broken equipment item into a clear, technician-ready symptom report for a franchise location. Optimise for fast diagnosis and safe handover.

Context you provide

• {{photo_or_description}}: image or plain description
• {{equipment_type_and_model}}: e.g. oven, cooler, model if known
• {{location_in_store}}: exact spot
• {{when_issue_started}}: first noticed and frequency
• {{symptoms_observed}}: noises, leaks, error codes, temperature
• {{recent_events}}: power outage, cleaning, service visit
• {{business_impact}}: downtime, safety risk
• {{technician_name_or_company}}: who receives it
• {{preferred_format}}: email, work order, chat

Instructions

1. Ask for any missing inputs, then draft the symptom report.
2. List only observable facts from the photo or description. Separate facts from assumptions.
3. Translate plain words into equipment symptom terms. Say "water pooling under unit" not "leak".
4. Note safety and warranty details: lockout needed, model or serial if visible, error codes.
5. Write sections: Subject, Equipment ID, Location, Symptom Timeline, Observed Evidence, Actions Taken, Access Notes, Requested Response.
6. Keep under 200 words. Plain language. No jargon unless standard for the trade.
7. If a critical input is missing, such as model number or start time, ask before finishing.

Output format Markdown report with bold heading and bullet points. Tone: factual, calm, urgent only for safety risk. Leave out guesses about cause, repair advice, and cost estimates.

Guardrails

• Do not invent model numbers, error codes, or test results. If not visible, write "not visible".
• For gas, electrical, refrigeration, or structural issues, say a licensed technician must inspect before use.
• Flag assumptions and ask the user to confirm.

Example {{photo_or_description}}: photo of cooler floor puddle, fan not spinning; {{equipment_type_and_model}}: commercial cooler, model unknown; {{location_in_store}}: back kitchen; {{when_issue_started}}: this morning; {{symptoms_observed}}: water, silent fan, temp rising; {{recent_events}}: power outage yesterday; {{business_impact}}: dairy at risk; {{technician_name_or_company}}: local refrigeration company; {{preferred_format}}: email.
