Create model coverage reports

This is real work, not a feature someone invented — it comes from real job ads and real questions people asked. Below are four ready AI prompts: get it done, make it easy for the next person to say yes to, work out the right move when you are stuck, and stop it coming back.

The same task, four prompts

today's deadline · the next reviewer · the stuck moment · the pattern
AExecute — do the immediate taskGenerate a model coverage report for the 'FlightControlSystem' model, including all subsystems…+
Generate a model coverage report for the 'FlightControlSystem' model, including all subsystems and ignored objectives. Save it as a PDF in the 'Reports/Q3' folder.
when the reply comes backPush once: ask it to sharpen the weakest part, and to say what it assumed. Helpful?
BImprove — make it easier to acceptBefore I send this model coverage report to the safety review board, make sure it highlights…+
Before I send this model coverage report to the safety review board, make sure it highlights any uncovered requirements clearly at the top and provides a summary of the overall coverage percentage, so they can quickly assess risk.
when the reply comes backPush once: ask it to sharpen the weakest part, and to say what it assumed. Helpful?
CDecide — diagnose the stuck momentThe model coverage report for the 'EngineManagement' system just came back with 65% coverage,…+
The model coverage report for the 'EngineManagement' system just came back with 65% coverage, but I know we tested every path.
The model coverage report for the 'EngineManagement' system just came back with 65% coverage, but I know we tested every path. The lead engineer will be asking about this in the morning, and I'm afraid it looks like we missed something critical. I can't tell if the test harness is configured incorrectly or if the model itself has unexercisable code. What's the most likely diagnosis here, and what's the best next step to quickly pinpoint the issue before the stand-up?
when the reply comes backPush once: ask it to sharpen the weakest part, and to say what it assumed. Helpful?
DBecome — change the patternI keep losing time trying to explain low model coverage numbers that I know are actually fine,…+
I keep losing time trying to explain low model coverage numbers that I know are actually fine.
I keep losing time trying to explain low model coverage numbers that I know are actually fine, because the reports don't clearly distinguish between genuinely untested code and intentionally excluded sections. What habit should I change in how I generate or configure these reports to proactively address those common questions from the review team?

Questions people actually ask

honest answers, no sign-up

Every task here was seen in the real world. Someone doing the job named it, a real job ad asked for it, or a lot of people asked about it online.

If nothing real showed a task, it is not on the page. That is the whole rule.

They are the same job approached four ways, because what you need depends on where you are.

Get it done today. Make it easy for the next person to say yes to. Work out the right move when you are stuck. Learn the pattern so the job stops coming back.

For most of these jobs it can carry the heavy thinking - draft it, sort it, check it, rehearse it with you.

It cannot sit in your chair, take the blame when a number is wrong, or notice what nobody wrote down. Let it do the first 80%. Keep the last 20% that is truly yours.

No. Copy any prompt and paste it into the AI you already use. No account, no score, no wall in the way.

Any of them. The prompts describe the work rather than naming a product, so they are not tied to one assistant.

That is also why they keep working when you switch.

Change it freely. Every prompt is a starting line, not a rule.

Put in your real numbers, your real names and your real deadline. The more you make it yours, the better the answer comes back.

The tasks come from real job ads, published job data and the questions people ask in public forums.

The steps come from MATLAB's own documentation, with practitioner sources for the traps the manual does not mention.

Push once. Ask it to sharpen the weakest part and to say what it assumed.

Most wrong answers come from a missing detail rather than a bad prompt - tell it the thing it could not know.
