Type an inspection rule in plain English, answer the AI's question about the missing details, inspect the complete proposed rule and save it deliberately as a draft.

## Plain English to a checked draft

1. **Load the current CheckStation plan**

   Load the current CheckStation plan

   Load the BR-200 final inspection plan from CheckStation. Its expected results already ask for the bracket width check for newly approved suppliers, but no rule adds that check yet.

2. **Choose Add a conditional inspection rule**

   Choose Add a conditional inspection rule

   Choose Add a conditional inspection rule, so the proposal covers both when the rule applies and which checks it adds.

3. **Type the requirement in plain English**

   Type the requirement in plain English

   Type the requirement as the team wrote it: for newly approved suppliers, also require the approved bracket width check.

4. **Ask for a proposal**

   Ask for a proposal

   Ask for a proposal. The AI replies with a question instead of guessing: a new rule needs an identifier and a yes or no for supervisor release.

5. **Add the details the AI asked for**

   Add the details the AI asked for

   Keep the requirement and answer the question: a supervisor must also release those units, and the rule is called new-supplier.

6. **Ask for the complete proposal**

   Ask for the complete proposal

   Ask again. The AI now returns a complete inspection rule. Nothing is saved until you choose to save it.

7. **Read the restatement of the rule**

   Read the restatement of the rule

   Read the restatement. When the supplier status is newly approved, the rule adds its checks and supervisor decision, followed by every value it would save.

8. **Inspect the proposed condition**

   Inspect the proposed condition

   Open the condition in the same controls CheckStation uses: the supplier status is Newly approved.

9. **Check the approved bracket width check**

   Check the approved bracket width check

   Check the checks the rule adds: only the approved bracket width check, revision width-v1. The rule is called new-supplier.

10. **Check that supervisor release is required**

   Check that supervisor release is required

   Check that a supervisor must review units when this rule matches, as you asked.

11. **Confirm you checked the whole proposal**

   Confirm you checked the whole proposal

   Confirm that you checked the condition and every value. CheckStation still validates the whole plan when it saves.

12. **Save the proposal as a draft**

   Save the proposal as a draft

   Save the proposal as a draft. The plan moves to revision 2. Saving does not approve, release or run the rule: the expected results, proof and an independent review come next.
