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

## Plain English to a checked draft

1. **Load the current recovery policy**

   Load the current recovery policy

   Load the PM-200 recovery policy from ReclaimStation. Its examples were agreed in advance and include a module with two recorded reuse cycles that should go for review.

2. **Choose Add reuse gate**

   Choose Add reuse gate

   Choose Add reuse gate. A reuse gate rule can admit a recovered component as a candidate, block it or send it for review.

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

   Type the requirement in plain English

   Type the requirement as the team wrote it: send a recovered component for review when it has two or more recorded reuse cycles in this register.

4. **Ask for a proposal**

   Ask for a proposal

   Ask for a proposal. The AI replies with a question instead of guessing: what should the rule be called, and which reason code should it record?

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

   Add the details the AI asked for

   Keep the requirement and answer the question: call the rule review-repeat-reuse and record the reason code repeat_reuse_review.

6. **Ask for the complete proposal**

   Ask for the complete proposal

   Ask again. The AI now returns a complete reuse gate 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. It says in plain words when the rule applies, when the number of recorded reuse cycles is at least 2, followed by the change it saves.

8. **Inspect the proposed condition**

   Inspect the proposed condition

   Inspect the condition in the same controls ReclaimStation uses: the number of recorded reuse cycles is at least 2.

9. **Check what will be saved**

   Check what will be saved

   Read what the rule will save, field by field. Every value has its name, and the reuse outcome is shown in plain words with its code.

10. **Check the rule identifier**

   Check the rule identifier

   Check the rule identifier is review-repeat-reuse.

11. **Check the reuse outcome and reason code**

   Check the reuse outcome and reason code

   Check the outcome: Send for review, with the reason code repeat_reuse_review.

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

   Confirm you checked the whole proposal

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

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

   Save the proposal as a draft

   Save the proposal as a draft. Saving does not approve, release or run the rule: the proof and an independent review come next.

Only a draft was saved. The proof and an independent review come next.
