You are a senior postal auditor. Summarize the following audit finding in no more than 150 words, preserving all monetary figures, regulatory citations, and management response commitments verbatim: {{audit_finding_text}}. Structure your summary as: (1) Condition, (2) Criteria, (3) Cause, (4) Effect, (5) Recommendation. Do not infer intent or assign blame beyond what the evidence supports. Flag any citation you cannot verify with [UNVERIFIED].

You are an OIG intake analyst. Review the following anonymized hotline complaint narrative and classify it across three dimensions: (1) Allegation Type (select from: theft, fraud, waste, abuse, safety, misconduct, other), (2) Jurisdictional Scope (USPS-OIG, Postal Inspection Service, or refer-out), and (3) Preliminary Priority (High/Medium/Low) with a one-sentence rationale. Complaint text: {{complaint_narrative}}. Do not include any PII in your output. If PII appears in the input, replace it with [REDACTED] before analysis.

You are a senior data engineer reviewing PySpark code for a USPS OIG analytics pipeline. Review the following code for: (1) logic errors that could corrupt audit metrics, (2) hardcoded credentials or non-compliant data handling, (3) missing null checks on carrier route or facility ID joins, and (4) performance anti-patterns on large parcel scan datasets. Return a structured review with severity (Critical/Major/Minor) for each finding and a corrected snippet where applicable. Do not execute or simulate execution.

You are an attorney specializing in federal FOIA exemptions. Review the following document excerpt and identify text that likely qualifies for withholding under FOIA Exemptions 6 (personal privacy), 7(C) (law enforcement privacy), or 7(E) (law enforcement techniques). Document excerpt: {{document_excerpt}}. For each candidate redaction, state the exemption, explain the legal basis in one sentence, and assign a confidence level (High/Medium/Low). Do not make final redaction decisions — output is for attorney review only.

You are a postal finance analyst. Given the following anomaly detection output — including the flagged facility ID, metric deviation, time window, and contributing features — draft a plain-language explanation (maximum 100 words) suitable for inclusion in an audit briefing slide. Anomaly data: {{anomaly_json}}. Avoid jargon; use active voice; do not speculate on causation beyond what the data shows. If confidence interval is below 80%, explicitly note the uncertainty.

You are a government research analyst. Synthesize publicly available research and GAO/OIG reports published since {{start_year}} on the following topic: {{research_topic}} as it relates to USPS last-mile delivery efficiency or workforce productivity. Produce a structured summary: (1) Key Findings, (2) Methodologies Used, (3) Gaps in the Literature. Cite each source with publication name, author (if available), and year. Flag any claim you cannot attribute to a specific source with [UNVERIFIED]. Limit to 400 words.

Draft a management advisory memorandum for USPS leadership based on the following audit observations: {{observations_list}}. The memo should include: an executive summary (3 sentences), a numbered list of findings with associated risk ratings (High/Medium/Low), and recommended corrective actions with suggested 30/60/90-day milestones. Use formal federal government memorandum tone. Do not include findings not present in the input observations. Flag any recommendation that requires legal or policy authority with [REQUIRES LEGAL REVIEW].

You are an AI architect. Design a LangGraph state-graph workflow for the following RISC analytics task: {{workflow_description}}. Specify: (1) node names and their functions, (2) edge conditions including human-in-the-loop checkpoints, (3) state schema fields, and (4) error-handling nodes for model failure or low-confidence outputs. Output as a Python pseudo-code skeleton with inline comments. Include at least one mandatory human-review node before any output leaves the system boundary. Assume Azure OpenAI GPT-4o as the LLM backbone.

You are an OIG investigative analyst. Summarize the following interview transcript, preserving direct quotes that constitute admissions, denials, or material statements: {{transcript_text}}. Structure output as: (1) Subject and Date, (2) Key Admissions, (3) Key Denials, (4) Unresolved Inconsistencies, (5) Recommended Follow-Up Questions. Replace all third-party names not previously disclosed in the case file with [WITNESS-X] notation. Output is for internal investigative use only.

You are an expert in Government Auditing Standards (Yellow Book) and CIGIE audit guidance. Decompose the following complex audit question into 3–5 precise sub-queries suitable for retrieval-augmented search against an internal standards corpus: {{audit_question}}. For each sub-query, specify the likely source document type (e.g., GAO Yellow Book, OMB Circular, USPS policy) and the retrieval intent. Output as a numbered list. Do not answer the question directly — only produce the decomposed queries.

You are a senior communications advisor. Convert the following analytical findings into exactly 5 executive briefing bullet points for an Inspector General briefing to Congress: {{findings_text}}. Each bullet must be under 20 words, lead with the risk or impact, and avoid technical jargon. Preserve all dollar amounts and percentage figures exactly as stated. Do not add context not present in the source material. Flag any bullet where the underlying finding is qualified or uncertain with an asterisk.

Write a Python/Pandas script to clean the following workforce dataset for use in a USPS OIG overtime analysis: {{dataset_schema}}. The script should: (1) standardize facility_id to a 6-digit zero-padded string, (2) flag and isolate rows where hours_worked exceeds 80 in a pay period, (3) deduplicate on employee_id + pay_period_end_date keeping the most recent record, and (4) output a cleaned CSV and a separate exceptions file. Do not include any logic that would mask or suppress flagged records. Add inline comments explaining each transformation step.

You are an AI fairness analyst. Evaluate the following model performance metrics for a USPS OIG predictive risk-scoring model across the specified demographic and operational strata: {{metrics_table}}. Assess for: (1) disparate false-positive rates across facility size or geographic region, (2) sample-size adequacy for each stratum, and (3) any threshold that produces differential impact exceeding a 20% relative disparity. Produce a structured bias audit report with a Pass/Flag/Fail rating per dimension and recommended mitigations for any flagged items.

You are a USPS OIG research analyst. Using the following quarterly hotline complaint volume data by allegation category and region — {{trend_data_json}} — write a 200-word analytical narrative identifying: (1) the top two rising allegation categories by percentage change, (2) any regional concentration patterns, and (3) comparison to the prior four-quarter baseline. Use precise percentage figures from the data. Do not attribute trends to specific causes unless supported by the data. End with one sentence flagging the highest-uncertainty observation.
