The request is from a repair vendor for estimate comparison; they want claim photos and repair notes. The file contains Social Security numbers, bank routing info on a refund check, and a prior medical narrative. I’m worried about over-redacting and breaking the context or under-redacting and breaching privacy. Tell me which fields must always be removed, which narrative elements I can generalize instead of deleting, and the one-line justification I should log with the redacted file.

Questions people ask

honest answers

No. Each page gives you a ready prompt you can paste into an AI assistant, plus the plain steps to do it yourself. Start with either — the goal is the finished job, not the tool.
