Safety note: Do not paste passwords, private keys, confidential customer data, or regulated personal data into public AI tools.

Reusable output checklist

  • Start with a one-sentence direct answer for the requested suspicious message review.
  • Return a structured table with priority, reason, draft/output, and verification step.
  • Include assumptions and missing information questions only after the first useful draft.
  • End with a short safety or quality review so the user can act without exposing sensitive data.

Red Mode depth upgrade: compact scoring rubric

Use this rubric before accepting the AI output for a phishing triage. It turns the prompt into a repeatable mini-tool instead of a one-off draft.

Score areaPass conditionFix if weak
CompletenessThe answer covers sender checks, URL/domain clues, attachment risk, safe reporting steps, and evidence capture.Ask the model to add missing rows and mark assumptions explicitly.
ActionabilityEvery recommendation has an owner, next step, and verification method.Request a P0/P1/P2 table with dates or effort levels.
SafetyNo secrets, credentials, customer data, or private files are requested.Replace sensitive details with labels such as [internal tool] or [account group].
ReviewabilityA human can quickly check facts, risk level, and final decision.Add a final “review checklist” and “unknowns” section.

Better follow-up prompts

Improve the draft above for a real phishing triage. Return: 1. a direct answer, 2. a priority table, 3. assumptions, 4. risks or edge cases, 5. a verification checklist. Do not request confidential information.
