each recipe: questions, ready prompt, one step at a time
Most business problems are solved better with a fixed flow of steps than with an autonomous agent. This recipe helps you decide which one you need before spending a peso.
Role, context, task, output format and examples. Prompts that fail almost always leave out two of the five. This recipe is the template we use in all the others.
A Project with your manuals, price lists and policies uploaded once: every conversation starts knowing how your business works and answers from your documents, not with generalities.
MCP is the standard plug between AI assistants and external tools. With this recipe you connect the first one, understand what it can and cannot do, and are ready to connect your own.
A program looks at your computer, tells you which AI models it can run well and how fast, downloads them and gets them ready. For data that cannot leave the company and for working offline.
Before paying for a tool or asking someone to build it, you test for free in the browser the open model that would solve it: generating images, transcribing audio, classifying text, translating. In ten minutes you know whether it works.
A simple rule for deciding which model to use for each job: the most capable one for what is hard and important, the fastest and cheapest for what is repetitive. With a table you build in twenty minutes and use all year.

What a recipe is
A real case, published by a company, a repository or a verifiable outlet, turned into instructions you can follow today. Plus a guided mode: it asks about your business, builds your prompt and walks you through one step at a time.
How it is verified
Every recipe carries its original source with a link and a verification date. Figures are quoted exactly as the source publishes them; if the source gives no numbers, neither does the recipe. Never two recipes about the same thing.
