Guide: SQL Question Translator
This prompt was written for people who work with data and analytics and need a reliable starting point instead of beginning from scratch. It defines role, goal, expected input, steps, and output format, which reduces generic responses and makes clear what the model assumed. Adjust the constraints of your reality (stack, deadline, internal policy) before using it in production.

Indicate what was deliberately left out of scope 4.
