  "supportingContext": "The article presents a practitioner workflow for capturing tacit business knowledge by recording a live demonstration of a repeatable task, such as preparing a weekly client update from a project board. Tools like Claude's Cowork and Codex Record & Replay can convert that demonstration into saved, reusable instructions. The author recommends a low-risk practice setup: a three-task board with fictional client data, stopping at a draft before anything is sent. He positions this as an accessible starting point for small businesses, distinct from commissioning a full automation project with a forward-deployed engineer. Human oversight remains central throughout, with explicit review and testing of AI-drafted procedures before real-world reliance.",
